Backed (even encouraged) by the west ‘If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor’ The world is fucked 1 1 Link to comment

Clydeside_Sheep Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 The figures are appalling, but there is no moral equivalence between Israel's action and those of Hamas on Oct 7th. Civilian deaths are inevitable if a combatant seeks to use them as human shields. If Israel could kill Hamas / Hezbollah without civilian deaths they would; but for the terrorists, civilian deaths are desired to continue to fuel the conflict, for propaganda and to get their next generation of embittered recruits. Although their death toll was lower, Hamas sheer glee in killing innocent civilians / families in the most painful and horrible ways as possible - even recording themselves doing it - is morally much worse than Israel's action, as intent is a big part of morality. This conflict shows the inadequacy of both Islam and Judaism, in that never have capacity to seek or offer forgiveness. Neither can love their neighbour, much less their enemy. Both are always concerned with revenge. Yet, the Christian principles I mention are the only thing which will ever resolve this conflict in a satisfactory way. If a lasting peace was achievable in Northern Ireland, it should be achievable here too. In another story, I see a Yazidi woman who was kidnapped by ISIS has been freed after 10 years of captivity in Gaza (starting when she was 11). An wee reminder of the kind of people we are discussing. They are not all innocent little lambs. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/10/4/yazidi-woman-rescued-from-gaza-10-years-after-being-taken-captive-by-isil I still don't get the anger of Gaza etc, in contrast to the total silence in the face of Islamic (real) genocides in Nigeria and Iraq. The muslims obviously have double standards, but, for non-muslims, I guess it shows the power of the media. Westerners also have double standards - after terror attacks on 9/11, NATO invaded a country and occupied it for years, then f*cked off leaving a mess. Israel's retaliation is comparable, yet only one instance generated outrage. Interesting that the Trump administration had almost succeed in normalising Israeli relations with the arab states. Yet, the weakness and incompetence of the democrats has allowed Iran to undo much of the progress which had been made, culminating in this current war. 3 1 Link to comment

Said by the terrorists that you don’t trust, figures are from hamas, and seen as it’s the only conflict that’s not allowed journalists in, (in any conflict ever, wonder why?) then the figure could be anything!, the figures of 40thousand dead were reported almost in the first 3 months of conflict, so many many megatons of bombs and idf incursions has produced 0 deaths in the last 8 month after? I think not. Many many more dead that’s been reported. It’s just no verification can take place because it’s either the word of hamas(untrustworthy) or Isreal (untrustworthy). 1 Link to comment
