The thinking behind this is that you’re not making it out like it’s all Palestinians that are part of the Hamas death cult…at least that’s how it’s been explained to me. Not sure how that’s pro Israel exactly, seems to be more pro Palestinian but I’m sure someone will tell me how that’s wrong.
I said this to @MxM111- my problem is that the IDF is now doing raids in the West Bank too. When the IDF is in both parts of Palestine, using Gaza doesn’t really make sense.
If you click on the link in the post above, then you will see that they specifically talk about war to be called “Israel-Gasa”, not “Israel-Palestinian” war to avoid confusion with Palestinian Authority. Such titles are click-bates.
Such raids Israel was doing well before the war. Israel also does not have a goal to destroy the Palestinian Authority. You are twisting facts here. Precisely because of such statements the journalists are given instructions NOT TO DO THAT.
What facts did I twist? Because all I said was that the war has expanded to beyond Gaza to the West Bank whether their goal is to destroy the PA or not. I’m not even sure why not having that goal means the war can’t expand into the West Bank. Are you under the strange misapprehension that every war is about regime change?
It seems to me that calling it the Israel-Gaza war when it isn’t just in Israel and Gaza is a twisting of facts. Even Wikipedia has the sense to call it the Israel-Hamas war since at least Israel claims that’s who they’re at war against (I would argue that is also false). And let’s say that’s true. Why can’t Hamas members be in the West Bank?
Was America at war with Pakistan when it killed Bin Laden in Pakistan during the “Great War on Terror?”
What? How do you even discuss the situation without using the word ‘Palestine?’
Oops, everything is Hamas now!
The truly sad thing is that there are people who believe just that.

Oops, all berries!
They use Gaza instead.

I admit I did not click through, but the war has expanded beyond Gaza, so calling it the Israel-Palestinian war makes sense.

Also, my link was one example. There have been plenty of others.

Calling this Israili-Palistinian war is twisting facts. There are also shorts traded with Hezbollah, so, let’s call it Israeli Lebanon/Iranian war.
Shots traded is not the same thing as multiple incursions.
How many military operations do there have to be in the West Bank for it to not make sense to call it the “Israel-Gaza War?”
You understand that West Bank is occupied by Israel for many years and they do these raids for many years (decades even), right?
You didn’t answer my question.
Also, from the link I pasted that you obviously ignored:
And yet the war is only in Gaza.
Weird kind of peace.
