Defense Minister Yoav Gallant says he has ordered a “complete siege” of the Gaza Strip, as Israel fights the Hamas terror group.
“I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip. There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed,” Gallant says following an assessment at the IDF Southern Command in Beersheba.
“We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly,” he adds.
“human animals”… reminiscent of “Untermenschen”.
Par for the course for fascist Israel.
Yeah it kinda dehumanization tactic, but on the other hand people are one of the animal species. I would rather say those are brainwashed individuals coming from shithole society which are beyond help and do not deserve any mercy.
Everybody already saw what they do to innocent civilians, especially women and children. Those people are pure human diarrhea and should be treated like one.

Ah yes that changes the situation completely. Show this to the raped women, children and their families please. I think they will understand afterwards and have a closue.
+1 for the mental gymnastics you just performed. You commit a crime and are pardoned by pointing on a bigger one.
The point is that neither sides are saints. You cannot just blame Palestine while letting Israel off the hook.
This is such obvious prelude to actual genocide by Israel, and you don’t see any issues with that?
Did I say something different? I commented on one particular event and you are automatically assuming everything around.
That last paragraph sounds eerily familiar. Do you not see it?
So in your logic… what should be done to those messed up people who killed, raped and enslaved civilians?
You changed your statement here
In your previous comment, you wrote “they” as a whole population. Now you write “those who”, the more limited segment.
But Israel doesn’t just punish the perpetrators here, do they?
I’d be happy to answer, as long as we can talk also about how Israel appears to be gearing up for its own final solution to the Palestine problem.
You are entangling in your political bs and now are trying to negotiate something. If you wanna answer, do it.
That’s really rich, implicitly claiming that civilians are a valid target for one side, but not the other, and that this is somehow not a political distinction. But I’m happy to state it outright: Hamas needs to be held to account, as does the government of Israel. It is not acceptable to target civilians, for anybody. It is Israel doing so now, and must be stopped.
They should be held accountable in a court of law.
There are no evidence any civilians were raped or are enslaved. Stop spreading disinformation.
And I guess according to your logic, countless thousands more innocents should suffer or die because of the horrible actions of a few.
Of course no evidence if you stick your head in the sand.
Enlighten me
Not my job ;)

Where did you get your info from?
Mahmoud Abbas, president of Palestine and head of Fatah, was the one to suspend both legislative and presidential elections and not Hamas. In fact, the latter “strongly opposed the decision to call off elections” (npr.org).
Abbas’ party has been working closely with the Israeli authorities. His excuse was that “Israel refused to commit to allowing Palestinians to vote in Israeli-occupied East Jerusalem” (npr.org).
Some (quite convincingly) hypothesise that the suspension of the elections was aimed at preserving his presidency and salvage “his fractured Fatah party [which] was expected to suffer another embarrassing defeat to Hamas.” (apnews.com).
How can one expect the people to not fight if democracy can’t be exercised freely?

It seems likely Israel will succeed in clearing the West Bank
The West Bank and the Gaza Strip are different areas. Hamas doesn’t control the West Bank, so what are you on about?

Fuck you, you piece of shit, the blood of thousands of innocent souls is on your useless fascistic hands. I hope you get what you deserve, you pathetic disgrace of a human. Signed, an Israeli citizen.

This is genocide.
Yeah, more death and misery for civilians. That will totally show the people why not to support the only ones fighting for them, even if it’s a fucking terrorist group like Hamas. Just like Dehousing worked against Germany in WW2, shooting Ukrainian schools and kindergardens works in Ukraine today, and more than a dozen similiar examples in between those two totally worked…
You’d imagine that support for revolutionaries seeking self-determination would be stronger in the West given the origins of the modern American and French state.
