Israel set up a miiltary base ~2 miles from the Ker Shalom crossing to prepare for their Rafah Genocide.
Hamas launched a rocket attack on it. Israel used that as pretext to close the Ker Shalom crossing to humanitarian aid.
Mainstream Western propaganda outlets such as Reuters, NYT and BBC are now laundering the lies that Hamas attacked soldiers at the crossing instead of a military base.
It isn’t. But abducting and killing civilians is. Using human shields is. Now, sure, there is a lot of legitimate resentment and anger. And I have complete understanding for parts of the Palestinian population being militant, it’s actually a good thing. And maybe there’s even a point at which actions like the ones Hamas commits are valid. I’m not convinced, but I’m open to the idea. But that doesn’t mean I have to think Hamas are the good guys.
But again, all that doesn’t make what Israel does any less of a genocide, and it doesn’t make shooting at the human shields any less of a despicable war crime.
Shooting at human shields what? Hamas does not use human shields that is an israeli propaganda lie.
The only party using human shields is israel.
I never looked into the veracity of the human shields claims, since it doesn’t really matter - the IDF is committing the worse crimes either way.
Oh fuck off you fucking Nazi, human shields my ass… Why does Israel have a military base right next to a fucking shopping mall? It’s because they are using their population as human shields not Hamas.
Dip shit propaganda eating neo lib nazi
Dear Woozythebear,
I regrettably have to to inform you that you are mistaken in your assessment of me being a nazi. Neither am I neoliberal scum. I am, in fact, a dirty commie and not a supporter of the Israeli apartheid state or their military. I apologize if my comment in any way implied that only one side of a conflict can be guilty of war crimes like the aforementioned human shields. Either way, your highly constructive critcism has been duly noted and I wish you a good day.
Sincerely dogsoahC
Na you ain’t a commie, you’re just larping as one. You are in fact a neo lib nazi by your comments.
I am so sorry. While I value your insightful analysis of my ideology, I must remain firm in disagreeing with said analysis. If you could kindly point out what makes you so adamant about my being a nazi, I am sure I can clear up any misunderstandings.
Regurgitating nazi propaganda like “hamas use human shields” that’s the shit that pro Israel nazis use. Saying that’s its wrong for them to fight back because “civilians” get killed in the process.
You just repeat propaganda given to you by nazis so that makes you a nazi.
If you had read my comment, you would realize that I actually said that Palestinians being militant (i.e. fighting back, in case that other word is just too exotic for you) is a good thing. If I’m mistaken in believing that Hamas is using human shields, very well, my bad. I simply never bothered checking that in detail, since Israel would still be the more evil party for shooting at the human shields. There are too many actual fascists out there, so please save your insults for them.
Most fascists don’t think they are fascists
