@TameeOliveFern
lol it was called โMandatory Palestineโ because it existed solely because of a British mandate. There never was a Palestine. Jews built a paradise in the desert and you want to steal it.
@academic_la
Hamas doesnโt know the number of hostages killed but has precise numbers of dead Gazans because of course they do thatโs just science bro.
@academic_la
I wonder if this is Israel realizing they canโt just eliminate Hamas. You can criticize Bibiโs โmow the lawnโ strategy, but Israel is beset on all sides by genocidal Islamists. Its survival depends on mercilessly smashing those regimes, to send the message โleave us alone.โ
@KufiyyaPS
To her Iโd say my heart breaks for her loss. To you, I say, โWar is hell. Why did Gaza start one on Oct 7 by invading Israel and committing genocide. What did they hope to accomplish? Why does Hamas work so hard to cause as many civilian casualties as possible?โ
@IhabHassane
Itโs no more โmisguidedโ than the rest of the โpro-Palestineโ movement, which is and always has been genocidal, pro-apartheid, and fascist.
@DrKarimWafa
Yeah war sucks man. The noble thing to do here would be to acknowledge that starting a war is a sin, and the suffering we see is symptomatic of all wars. Instead of trying to make it sound like itโs somehow different than any other war โbecause Jews.โ
@JachnunEmpire
Are they still calling Gaza a ghetto? I mean I know thatโs why they had to invade Israel and commit atrocities, but now that Israelโs responded rationally, they insist Gaza was a paradise with 36 hospitals, dozens of universities, beach resorts, parks, restaurants, and malls.
@LucBernard
Me too Luc. Life is precious. We will never forget the lives Hamas sacrificed for no other reason than their greed and bloodlust. And we will never let their apologists hide.
@academic_la
@AriFromKfarSaba
I think the original responseโs point is that Hamas is culpable because they deliberately put people in harmโs way. IAF did not deliberately or even knowingly kill the hostages.
@HamasAtrocities
@aniii722
Yes but itโs important to point out: Israel is fighting in Gaza despite it being Ramadan, because Hamas continues its terror campaign against Israel.
Arab Muslims attack Jews on Jewish holidays BECAUSE they are Jewish holidays, BECAUSE Jews are peacefully observing holidays.
@AssalRad
You know how you can tell you donโt care about the dead and injured?
Because you act like this war is different than any other war. Itโs not. Thereโs a reason Sherman said war is hell.
What is I forgivable is starting a war. And Israel has never, ever started a war.
@EladNehorai
Elad, personally, I understand exactly how universally enraged Muslims are that Jews are defending themselves against a genocidal Islamist terror group that has exploited vulnerable Palestinians (who are hated by the Muslim world) for decades. I just donโt care.
@Hind_Gaza
Awful. Then I look at your house and think of what you said: Gaza is apartheid, open-air prison, concentration camp. And I ask, โdid people in concentration camps have full sized in-ground swimming pools?โ And I ask, โwhy did Gaza invade Israel? What did you hope to accomplish?โ
@BayanPalestine
Did it? It wasnโt the 1929 Hebron massacre? The 1936-39 revolt? The 1941 Grand Muftiโs request to Hitler to rid Mandatory Palestine of Jews? The Arab terror attacks starting in 1947?
@AngryLevantine
Also the most likely scenario is this personโs family voluntarily left thinking theyโd return to a judenrein Israel, because thatโs what Arab leaders told them to do.
@afalkhatib
There is a moral and legal difference between Hamas fighting in civilian clothes as part of their strategy of maximizing civilian casualties, and IDF wearing disguises to carry out a surgical operation that doesnโt just minimize but completely avoids civilian casualties.
@JustLuai
Seeing them go from โTHIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR (((ISRAEL))) THANK YOU ICJ!!โ to โNOOOOO GENOCIDE GENOCIDE GENOCIDEโ in a matter of minutesโฆoh that was just delightful.
@lilbuddymax
@EndTheRight
@solonos_630bc
Yes, in the Arab-Jew conflicts over the last 100+ years, equal or greater numbers of Arabs have been killed compared to Jews. Itโs called โlosing,โ and if anyone is ignoring that, itโs not the Jews.
@academic_la
@AriFromKfarSaba
Did the investigation say the IDF was careless or negligent?
The party holding hostages or using human shields is legally responsible for harm to them as long as the other party acts legally (takes steps to avoid collateral damage, uses force proportional to the gain sought, etc)
@mattduss
Evidently weโve reached the โJews have to let people slaughter them. Itโs immoral to defend themselves against Gaza because they didnโt invade Gaza to stop Gaza from building the infrastructure to commit genocide against the Jewsโ stage of the conversation.
@berniehoe2
If they have the right to go to the house of any Jew and do whatever they want, Israel has the right to go to Gaza and the WB and do what it must.
Thanks for clearing my conscience.
@aziz0nomics
I thought the speed with which funding has been suspended indicated the UNWRA-Hamas relationship was closer and more extensive than most people thought and the evidence of this much stronger than publicly known. WSJ headline from earlier seems to support this.
@TameeOliveFern
Israelis: we bought sand and swamp and built cities like Tel Aviv. There was literally nothing there.
Palis: no we had houses and airports and museums they were all just invisible.
@yashar
But the Nakba is a lie, as Iโm sure you know. Zurayk coined the term to describe the Arabsโ failure to destroy Israel. How should Jews feel about Arabs who are โheartbrokenโ this umpteenth genocidal campaign has failed?
@realrabbilinda
6. You married a Jew and made Jewy babies
7. You occupy synagogues at any point (thatโs someone elseโs land you stole obvs)
8. You think โthe Holocaustโ is a thing that happened
@jvgraz
I see weโve reached the โof course Hitler was right and all Jews deserve to be exterminated, some of them are really racist and intolerantโ stage of the conversation.
@HowidyHamza
We also canโt โboth sidesโ this issue. Pro-Pali positions (1) deny Arab colonialism/Jewish indigenousness, (2) deny Jews bought their land in Israel (3) deny Arab violence, (4) deny the White Paper and its pro-Arab apartheid policiesโฆand these are just a few of the big lies.
@ifofgot
@One_Dawah
Well, Abraham smashed his fatherโs idols. But then he didnโt, you know, espouse marrying kids and go around killing โinfidels.โ

@aziz0nomics
@SY_M_Cohen
If Arab Muslims are so tolerant why do for all intents and purposes zero Jews live in Arab Muslim countries? Why are Mizrahi Jews almost all in Israel? Why is Israel by contrast 20% Arab Muslim?
We see what Arabs do to us when given the chance.
@mynameisjro
These organizations are illegally occupying this land. I thought you were against that sort of thing? Or is it not โillegal occupation,โ but โJews owning landโ thatโs got you in a tizzy?
@NizMhani
@aziz0nomics
The racist lie that Jews canโt own land they bought, and that Arabs own whatever they fancy, is the excuse Arabs use for violence, and itโs what got the few who were actually forced to leave, forced to leave (and rightfully so).
@alon_mizrahi
If this were World War II youโd be saying โIf we want to combat antisemitism, we need to stop trying to sneak Jews out of Europe and into MP, and stop fighting back when the Arabs attack us.โ
@KufiyyaPS
Are you serious? Gaza invaded Israel and went on a genocidal rampage. Thatโs why thereโs a war now. Why did they do that? Iโm serious. Why? What were they hoping would happen?
@IsraelJoffe3
@alitlstrawberry
No kidding. Her tweet history isโฆyikes. I mean I know I said leftists are racist narcissistic sociopaths butโฆholy shit.
@academic_la
@AriFromKfarSaba
Yup. They are facts which, tragically, will weigh on the conscience of all IDF involved for the rest of their lives. While the โanti-Zionist/pro-Palestinianโ crowd will relish this as they donโt care about the hostages at all. I know which deserve my sympathy and support.
@Rrrrnessa
Israel has never been the aggressor. If Palestinians had accepted the partition plan instead of starting a war that they even say they never stopped fighting (they donโt say theyโve never stopped losing) - they might be a majority in Israel, even though they conspired with Nazis.
@richimedhurst
An excellent point. Why does Gaza constantly bomb Israel? Why did they invade Israel on 10/7? What was the point? What did they think they were going to accomplish?
@Hind_Gaza
Was this really your house? It looks like it was nice.
Iโm genuinely curious because you say Hamas is the resistance and Iโm just wondering what theyโre โresistingโ? Like, why did Hamas invade Israel and start this war? What was the point? Are you still grateful?
US is considering airdrops of aid into Gaza. My statement:
"Oxfam does not support US airdrops to Gaza, which would mostly serve to relieve the guilty consciences of senior US officials whose policies are contributing to the ongoing atrocities and risk of famine in Gaza.

@Hind_Gaza
Itโs really ironic, isnโt it?
Jews had nothing. Nothing. But they imagined an Israel reborn and using diplomacy and hard work, they made it so.
Gazans had everything. But they imagined they were in an open air prison and using terrorism and war, they made it so.
@rehanna83
I see the appeal of being a Hamas sympathizer: nothing is ever your fault. No matter how hateful and violent you are, youโre always the victim.
@BenMFreeman
Zionism was THE ORIGINAL decolonization project. โPro-Palestiniansโ insisting on โdecolonizationโ really have no idea what theyโre talking about.
@Hind_Gaza
Too cold to swim in your outdoor pool?
Iโm curious: Gaza depended entirely on foreign aid. Youโre just a โjournalist.โ And yet someone like you - decidedly middle class at best in any other country - lived in a virtual palace.
So why did Gaza invade Israel? What was the point?
@caitoz
If Gaza hadnโt invaded Israel on Oct 7 and taken hostages, there would be no war today.
They had no reason but genocidal blood lust. Theyโve abandoned their pretense that Gaza was a โprisonโ and now show videos proving it was a paradise.
Anyway fuck off you ugly Jew hating hag.
@orenbarsky
Kind of like how the US ensured Japan as nation knew it was totally defeated, I was thinking that one of Israelโs conditions for a ceasefire should be whoever is alive in Gazaโs leadership must publicly apologize for collaborating with the Nazis against Jews.
@ZealouslyQuoted
I know your questions are rhetorical, but I have an answer: racism. You see, Palestinians, and their adherents, view them as a race thatโs incapable of, and therefore not expected to, show agency. Theyโre permanent children, entitled to coddling, responsible for nothing.
@gazawest
@leekern13
Wikipedia isnโt a history book, itโs a crowdsourced webpage.
The Meaning of the Disaster, by Constantin Zureiq, is a history book. He coined the term to describe the failure of Arabs to destroy Israel.
โThe Nakbaโ is pining for genocide, nothing more.
@chilijellybeans
@Datelinefam
I know. Youโre talking about the colonizers - Arabs. But us Jews have had much more experience with adversity and people trying to kill us than you white folk. And weโre quite accommodating, thatโs why we accepted the UN partition plan. But weโre capable of defending ourselves.
@JonnyFX1
At least ten times as many Gazans invaded Israel to commit genocide on Oct 7 than there are Israelis in this video.
So if this is justification to โhate Israel,โ how should I feel about Gaza?
@chilijellybeans
@Datelinefam
I appreciate the sentiment but we Jews donโt need your help. Yes, we are indigenous to Israel, yes it was originally larger than it was now and yes, Arabs did colonize it in the 7th century. But weโre ok, really. Weโve got this.
@Lin11W
This is Tel Aviv in 1938. It was a city founded and built by Jews.
Ask yourself: if history is on Jew-hatersโ side, why do they always always always lie about Jews?
@MOSSADil
Even more significantly none has stepped up to help free Gaza from Hamas, or to govern in their absence.
Itโs almost as if they want Gazans to suffer and die.
@yashar
The point is still valid. The number of Jewish and allied voters who would abandon Biden if he abandoned Israel is MUCH greater than the number of people who are threatening to abandon him for supporting Israel (many of whom wouldnโt vote for him anyway).
@peachcrisis
Look I get it, youโre not the first person to want to blame the Jews for your failure, but did it ever occur to you that youโre just a bad writer?
@ZealouslyQuoted
Well said. I can care about innocent Palestinians killed in a war Hamas started, criticize the Netanyahu government, and still support Israel, Judaism, and the IDF. You canโt support Hamas unless you hate Jews and love genocide.
@Resist_05
Indeed. The first Nakba was the Palestinians expecting their increasing terror campaign from 1929-47 to galvanize a pan-Arab action to destroy Israel. It failed - not just a setback (naksa) but a catastrophe (Nakba).
It seems they did not learn from history.
@aziz0nomics
Thatโs simply false. The idea of Palestinian nationalism was decades (if not centuries) later than the proposal to re-establish Israel. And it was largely in response to it. Pan Arabists didnโt really want the land, they just didnโt want Jews to have any autonomy, anywhere.
@jlamadehe
@AIPAC
I donโt get it. If someone raped and kidnapped your kids would you just pay them a bunch of money and be like โitโs fine, sorry for all the trouble, keep my kidsโ?
Because it sure sounds like thatโs what youโd do.
@ifofgot
@richimedhurst
If weโre being honest, itโs what Israelโs been doing since at least Nov 1947 when Palestinian Arabs responded to being offered a country for the first time by attacking Jews.
