    I don’t care what their reasons for killing children are. I only care that they are indiscriminately killing them. That makes them terrorists by any definition.

      But you should. Because that’s the difference between people being killed by a terrorist attack and people being killed while chasing terrorists.

        No. You shouldn’t care. Killing children makes you a terrorist no matter what. There’s no justification. Especially not as disproportionate retaliation.

          Each time you are in a war, you kill innocents and children, as well. It’s sad but true. If you consider every state who killed children in a war at some point a terrorist state, then pretty much every single state would be a terrorist one.

          Hamas has been ruining civilians’ lives for ages. If there would not be a radical step taken against them, they would continue to rule and eventually kill more people than in a conflict like this.

          We already had this in WWII. USA threw 2 nuclear bombs at Japan and killed many innocents. However, if they hadn’t done that, war would have continued for another, let’s say, 20 years which would eventually mean even more deaths.

          Hence why I believe that killing more people now in order to preserve more lives in the future is worth it.

          On the other hand, it would be definitely the best solution if both israel and palestine had their own state which cares about people.

            Israel has been subjugating Palestinians for almost 80 years, literally funded Hamas and called them a necessary evil, and is now currently in the process of creating and recruiting the next generation of terrorists. Israel, as a government, is more of a terrorist org than Hamas is.

              It’s honestly sad that you think this.

                Why? Because it’s true? If you think Israel is justified in what it’s doing to disproportionately kill this many people and children, then surely you have to agree that Hamas and Palestinians (in whatever group they form) are they also justified to retaliate against Israel since Israelis are killing innocent civilians… You’d be a hypocrite otherwise. Death is death. Genocide is not justified here.

                  I believe Israel has the right to respond and attempt to destroy Hamas. It’s a war, there will always be civil causalities. The difference is that whilst one side is the only democratic state in the Middle east, the other one is a terrorist organization which has no place in this world.

                  I am not saying Israel is 100% innocent. I believe the actions in West Bank are debatable at least but 7th Octobre was nothing but an attempt to genocide. And it was started by Hamas, not Israel.

                    What nonsense. You just ignore the last 80 years because Oct. 7th is an easy date for you to remember or what?

                    If Israel has a right to respond, then you’re a hypocrite for saying that Palestine doesn’t have a right to respond to the last 80 years. This is why they’re both terrorists. Both of them are literally trying to achieve their ends via terror.
