Where is the outrage that Hamas is continuing a war it can't win when all it needs to do to end the suffering and starvation is to release the hostages and their dead bodies, and agree to live in peace with Israel?

Man I sure wonder if all the people who sat out or voted for Trump because of "Genocide Joe" are happy with how things are going?

It's not like anyone with half a brain could see this coming from a mile away or anything.

Hamas has been circulating fake stories and images about Gaza starvation, people on here are either Hamas or trolls or maybe both lol

Israel killed 3/4 of the Israelis on Oct7 in Israel. This is what happens when you use artillery in a civilian area- you kill a lot of your own civilians. Israel(people and government) has done nothing to secure the release of the hostages. Israel has done the opposite. Why should we care about Israeli hostages when Israel does not care about their own?

I know no one who sympathizes with Israeli or their lack of western values. Israel needs to go.

Agree.

CNN photos of current situation in Gaza. This is heartbreaking.

Hamas has released hostages. The ones not released have probably died of starvation by now.

Hakeem Jeffries needs to speak up about this issue, don’t you think?

The starvation and slaughter of innocent Gazans is an absolute tragedy. 

The fact that that narrative is being controlled in such a way that “don’t kill children” is now synonymous with being an antisemite - is actually what has erased my last scrap of hope for the future of humanity. 

When propaganda can drown out actual footage of dead children- all for the sake of a few people having more money and more power…. It’s over. 

The “soul” of human beings as a whole is gone. 

There are good people in this world still, but at this point the cancer cells have out maneuvered and over powered the healthy cells of this organism.

That's like me saying I can rob your house because I don't like who you support politically.

I don't think the photos are fake and it's awful what's happening. But I am focusing on the damage being done here first. Unfortunately I can't manage the trauma elsewhere, especially because I can't do anything about it.

Not anymore. This has gone way too far. People are finally speaking up in my community
