Can someone please explain to me how people still support Israel? It honestly makes no sense to me. They are justifying killing kids as well as unarmed people simply because they’re Palestinians. How are so many able to support this & see no issue

people still support israel because they have something to gain (trumps are scoping gaza for commercial development, aipac, etc) or they are so propagandized that they genuinely believe they’re on the right side even in the face of significant evidence that israel commits catastrophic war crimes. seems hard to believe but just look at blue collar low income trump supporters who do not benefit at all but still support in spite because it’s easy to blame all your problems on a group you don’t like

according to them either 1. Palestine = terrorist or 2. israel = gods chosen people so they can do no wrong, most likely a low IQ mix of both

Also Hamas doesn’t need to recruit. Israel in discriminately killing & targeting everyone in Gaza along with stealing homes & killing people in the West Bank rightfully causes resentment which makes people want to fight back.

Basically they claim Hamas uses children’s as shields, saying Hamas hides behind them and shots at israhell. That would make sense if it was a gun battle. You don’t level an entire country into rubble from airplane bombs and say all the children and women died because Hamas was hiding behind them 🤯🤯 The problem is no one from Palestine is allowed on the news to tell their side. Israel tells both sides of the story. That should be your first clue you aren’t being told the truth

My genuine question is what do you do in an impossible situation where child soldiers are being used

An impossible situation? The babies, toddlers, etc are being used as child soldiers? News to me that babies & toddlers are being tried as soldiers. Then again I have heard Israeli politicians claim that at 2 years old Palestinian babies are trained to kill Israelis I didn’t realize you guys actually believed that bs

“Every child, every baby in Gaza is an enemy … Every child you’re giving milk to today will slaughter your children in 15 years. Gaza must be occupied and settled” — Moshe Feiglin (Israel) “I have not considered myself entitled – this concerns especially the Jewish women and children – to allow the children to grow into the avengers who will then murder our children and our grandchildren. That would have been cowardly. Consequently the question was uncompromisingly resolved” — Himmler (Nazis)

Same goes for Fox News, they never bring democrats on their shows. They bring some crazy republicans who will tell you the republican side and also the democrats side (which will be a lie). CNN at least brings republicans and lets them debate, although I will admit they outnumber republicans

You’re legit just repeating Islamophobic bs that people claim when talking about any & ever Muslim they don’t like & then saying it’s been confirmed when it hasn’t. They’re not doing random beheadings, throwing people off roofs etc. But you know what is happening Israel is doing a genocide which you for some crazy reason want to defend. Maybe you believe Israel has ever right to the West Bank & even Gaza so they have to kill everyone but if that’s the case you’re just a genocidal monster

Your claim of random people being behaved in the streets isn’t true. I know they did do executions of Palestinians who killed other Palestinians while collaborating with Israel & offered amnesty to collaborators who didn’t kill any Palestines. You can argue that they shouldn’t have killed any collaborators regardless of if they killed other Palestinians or not but that’s very different than what you’re claiming.

As for the child soldiers there’s plenty of reports from western doctors in Gaza of the IDF snipers using children as target practice. They aren’t children soldiers they are random kids. They also kill babies. They are unarmed so even if they were all secretly children soldiers lie you claim which isn’t true especially given the age of most of the kids I’m talking about it would still be a war crime. Not that it matters since you support war crimes as long as Israel is the one doing them

No you're arguing to justify Israel mass killing kids in Gaza & the West Bank. You can say you don't like Hamas or agree with all of Hamas actions that's fine but instead what you're doing is arguing that Israel is forced to kill a record amount of kids in the West Bank & Gaza because they are supposedly all children soldiers according to you. The amount of children killed outnumbers the believed total amount of Hamas fighters but sure every kid of every age is a child solider

Hamas IS putting children in their military !!! That’s objectively evil. I’m just relieved someone else understands that criticising Hamas ≠ “I think Israel is perfect and justified”, two things are true here. Hamas is evil and the IDF is as well. You can’t seem to grasp that for some reason or you just keep denying reality and saying that I support children dying when I’ve said nothing that comes close to that

I mean that’s a real thing that Hamas is doing im not sure how it’s not relevant, I was demonstrating that there is nuance. People rarely want to acknowledge the terror that is Hamas and whenever someone does they take that as being a bigot or defending all of Israels actions and can’t just acknowledge that hamas has committed atrocities. so divisive but these are conversations that need to be had imo

You’re so right Israel had to kill these unarmed Palestinian kids in the West Bank because they were secret Hamas soldiers who were going to destroy Israel if they weren’t stopped. 🙄
