There are tens of thousands of videos of Palestinian children killed and maimed. Too many to count at this point. I guess we’ll just hear “Hamas started it” as Israel mows the grass.

Right. So find a video of Israelis doing the same thing as what today’s videos show. Apparently there are thousands of similar videos, according to you.

Look, this should be easy based on what you and other Hamas supporters in this thread claim. Unless, of course, you’re just lying.

Prove to me you are right. It should be easy for you to find a similar video of Israelis desecrating the naked corpse of a young Palestinian woman while other Israeli onlookers cheer on. You keep telling me thousands of these videos exist. So produce just one of them.

+1. Are there videos of collateral damage to civilians from Israeli attacks? Sure. I'm you can point to those. But I haven't once ever seen barbarism on display from the Israelis like you've seen in the last 24 hours by the Gazans. Feel free to correct us though if there are.

There are many videos of the horrific results of rocket attacks with both Israeli and Palestinian children as innocent victims.

But I’ve never seen a video of Israelis acting with the level of barbarism and monstrosity as the Palestinians in today’s videos. I’ll never get what I saw out of my head, and I wish I could.

I have been a critic of Israel in the past, but this is far beyond anything I’ve ever seen from Israel before.

+1.

So far today, more than 250 Israelis have been killed and another 1400 injured. An untold amount of people - including many women - have been kidnapped and taken hostage by Palestinians. Anyone that saw the videos today of Palestinians desecrating and abusing the naked body of a dead Israeli women will be understandably worried about the fate of those hostages. They are likely to be tortured. Palestinians displayed a venal cruelty that is not often seen in the modern era. Those images will not be forgotten.

What Palestinians did today was to effectively commit national suicide. They will never have a viable, independent country. They are terrorists. When Gaza is destroyed in the months ahead, no one will lament their fate. They chose Hamas. They chose barbarity. They chose stupidity. And they will reap what they sowed. Idiots.

I’ve watched the video a few times trying to figure out whether it was the German tourist or not. I don’t know whether it was, but it doesn’t matter. It’s a ghastly scene that constitutes both a war crime and an exhibition of the basest forms of human behavior.

All of that said, I’m going to stop you when you use it as a rallying cry for genocide.

Countless bodies - civilian and belligerent - were desecrated by our forces and those of our allies in Afghanistan and Iraq. And then some. If you haven’t heard of the Mahmudiyah Incident, have a read: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmudiyah_rape_and_killings. Even for all out war, that’s some extremely evil sht. And it was all done by a US Army soldiers.

As horrific as that incident, I think you and I are grateful that no one is calling for the indiscriminate slaughter of Americans on account of the heinous actions of five soldiers. Or for those of William Laws Calley Jr. at My Lai and so on and so on.

Thugs that celebrate killing and the desecration of bodies deserve nothing less than that, but they are not all Gazans let alone all Palestinians.

I don’t remember celebrations by Americans all over the nation re: Mahmudiya rape and killings.

Plenty celebrated the outbreak of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, just as Palestinians are celebrating this incursion. If you have reason to believe that Palestinians all over are celebrating this desecration, please share because I have a hard time understanding why you would think that.

Facts from Fox News reporter https://twitter.com/JenGriffinFNC/status/1710735779834593355

Regarding the $6 billion: I spoke to several senior officials who were involved in the unfreezing of the $6 billion to Iran in exchange for 5 US prisoners, some of whom worked under the Trump Administration and are still serving…
Those who are saying that this $6 billion that was part of the American hostage release negotiated by the Biden administration likely fueled the Hamas invasion are missing some key facts….None of the money has been spent yet. It remains in a Qatari bank under US Treasury watch.
The $6 billion was Iranian money for oil sales that was held in a South Korean bank, not U.S. taxpayer money. Under the Trump administration 4 banks worldwide were allowed to hold money from Iranian oil sales to 4 countries, including India, South Korea, and Turkey….
Under the Trump Admin deal that preceded Biden hostage deal, Iran could draw on that money for humanitarian purchases that had to be verified by the US Treasury. The money sat in a S Korean bank because it was held in South Korean won and no international banks would convert would convert the won to dollars for fear of sanctions violations. This was NOT US taxpayer money.

I'm looking for receipts that some was not used, not some article that simply tells us that. We've all been lied to before. It's not like Iran or Qatar are good humanitarians when it comes to Israel.

The US Treasury controls the account and has to approve payments out of it. Iran is under sanctions, which the US enforces, but they are allowed to spend money for humanitarian purposes. Why is this so hard to understand?

This attack by Hamas has been months in the making. The $6B has nothing to do with it. Why is that so hard to understand?

Well we can certainly trust this administration to tell the truth.

There is a paper trail which proves it. They aren't lying.

That is Trump’s fault. He said he believed Putin over US intelligence. Republican stood up and cheered!

What a total non sequitur.

Most likely in your alternate reality. Here on earth one we deal in facts. When the president of the United States sides with a war criminal and country that is openly hostile to the US over his own intelligence agencies he is working to destroy that agency. Who knows how many assets trump turned over to Putin?

Americans are not living under brutal military occupation, desperate for a win at any cost to avenge their dispossession, Israeli apartheid, and death and disfigurement of generations of youth.

Desperation is ugly. I blame the people who made all Palestinian civilians this desperate as much as I blame the madmen who carried out these attacks.

We have to internalize our role in this situation.

You are disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

I think israeli government actions are disgusting. Absolutely disgusting.

Because Israel knew ahead of time and it’s worth a few hundred bodies to give the cover needed to permanently solve the Gaza question

Why would they claim otherwise when Doha could contradict them easily if they wanted to? it is a stupid argument. None of the US money was spent on this. Move along.

Oh yeah, we were all running around in the streets, firing our AKs…and there was absolutely no public discourse disagreeing with the wars. None.

And all the video of the Palestinians today is small children in Gaza peacefully weaving flower crowns and talking about peace and coexistence…

Dear Lord. How can you be so profoundly ignorant of the many, many, many leaders, ordinary citizens, television anchors, media personalities, military generals, and others worldwide calling for the death of all Americans? The bolded is shockingly ignorant.

What kind of delusional, hippy-dippy world are you living in? What you wrote bears literally no relation to reality whatsoever.

If you are so sure that these “many, many, many, many” people exist, then you shouldn’t have any problem compiling some links for us. I’ll wait.

In the meantime, I’ll share what I’ve learned from traveling the Middle East and Asia for the past two decades and that is that ordinary people - even in countries hostile to the US - are very adept at distinguishing between their feelings toward a country’s government and its military and toward its people. As angry as they may be about American foreign policy, all but a very tiny few would ever think of taking that anger out on an American civilian.

You should traveling a bit sometime. Odds are that it would find it a much friendlier and calmer place than the likes of both Fox News and the New York Times would have you believe.

Leon Panetta on cnn just now said over-reliance on technology intelligence allowed Hamas to avoid detection. The intelligence system in Israel failed, and human intelligence is needed.

No question that Israel will take action, particularly given the hostages taken. This will be a prolonged war.

Re: US role - our special relationship will likely prompt intelligence and military support. It will be a complicated effort.

Re: history - going back to 1948, we’ve had 7 decades of war and failed efforts for peace. This last year brought increased tension. Hamas took a dramatic step nobody saw coming. It’s a wake up call to hamas as well as Iran, hezbollah, etc.

[Anonymous]

So, as was the case in the previous campaign of a couple years ago, the US will give Israel about five days to do what it says needs to do. Then, Israel loses the moral high ground. Self destructive by the Palestinians yet again—all was going so well with the BDS long game, college campus isolation of Israel supporters, swinging the Dem party away from Israel ….

What is there to condemn?

Do I endorse what Hamas is doing? No. Do I understand why? Yes. Do I have sympathy for Israelis? Absolutely not.

What you saw today was nothing. You saw some videos of Israelis experiencing a taste of what Palestinians have experienced for the last 70 years. The viral videos don’t phase me. You people need a reality check. She was raving in front of the apartheid fence. I have 0 sympathy for that nonsense.
