Hamas is deliberately and cowardly using Israeli/international hostages and Palestinian civilians as human shields.
Hamas are terrorists.
Hamas is 100% responsible for any of their deaths.
Placing blame for their deaths on anyone else but Hamas...makes one a Hamas/terrorist sympathizer.
Takes two to tango. It is possible to apportion blame in appropriate proportions without necessarily supporting or sympathising with either party.
Reality is rarely black and white.
THIS is black and white.
Intentionally and cowardly taking hostages and putting them in harms way...makes the hostage taker 100% responsible for their lives and/or deaths.
What about the 7 hour delay in response or the torched cars that are indicative of hellfire missiles?
Before someone starts a slanders campaign I suppose I’m asking why the most heavily defended technologically advanced border in the world in addition to the vast array of intelligence assets in Israel could allow for such an egregious and regrettable slip and/or lapse to account for the attack there.
The fact it was 50 years to the day of a remembered attack there is also quite odd.
I don’t believe in coincidence anymore.

On any "side", anyone who uses various excuses to shield themselves from critique and accountability. For example, the side that uses "racism" as an excuse. Or the side that uses "anti-semitism" as an excuse. Or the side that uses "religion" as an excuse.

I wonder if those protests in Tel Aviv are being funded by the same Biden donors who are supporting the campus riots here.
Soros, Gates, Rockefellers, and the Pritzkers.

There are probably a few still alive but Israel's implementation of their "Hannibal Directive" pretty much sealed many of their fates , just like those poor Israelis killed by the IDF on Oct 7th.
When the lives of your own citizens came second to political motivation you know there's a problem.
