[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, if Hamas and Hezbollah choose to secrete themselves into civilian neighborhoods, as they saying goes, "you get what you get".

The overwhelming Palestinian population has elected Hamas as the government of Gaza.[/quote]

Really?
Is it not true that Hana’s was last elected nearly 20 years ago, when the majority of Palestinians were either unborn or else ineligible to vote? And didn’t Hamas fail to gain a plurality of the vote at that time, but instead assume power with the assistance of the Israeli government?

Boy, your command of the actual facts is really bad, even for a Zionist.[/quote]

20 years ago?  Why are you judging their electoral system by U.S. standards? it is what it is.[/quote]

Better question: why are you insinuating that the innocents being slaughtered by Israel have themselves to blame?[/quote]

Yes. This. We can go back and forth about he 2006 election but honestly does it matter? Clearly more than militants are being killed (and maimed and displaced don’t forget). I understand it’s hard to accept that Israel is this cruel, but it is.  I find it sickening that a country whose people know suffering can inflict such harm on others.  (Ps. I’m not an anti semite. I’m of Jewish descent and think my people must do better).  [/quote]

The Hamas militants are hiding among civilians and literally used hospitals and other civilian facilities to launch attacks on the IDF.   They are thus equally culpable in the killings of civilians.  It's extremely misleading to try and claim that EVERY civilian death is SOLELY the fault of the IDF and we are far past due an admission from pro-Palestinians of that. [/quote]

Let's agree that Israel and Hamas have equal responsibility for the ongoing genocide. The leaders of both sides should be indicted on war crimes (has already happened) and the U.S. should follow U.S. law and stop supplying weapons to both sides. Of course, the U.S. does not supply weapons to Hamas so we can only stop providing weapons to Israel. But, this will meet your objection of not placing fault only on one side.

Superior military technology is the only reason why Hamas and Hezbollah haven’t murdered every single Israeli. [/quote
