"UNRWA’s commissioner general told the Financial Times (FT) that Israel has yet to provide evidence of its claims that around a dozen UNRWA staff were involved in the October 7 attacks."

Seems like every night on the news.. another couple of kids with white flags being shot... A warning to Hamas? Not even your children are safe? Feels counter-productive in the long term though... even if Hamas is obliterated... the next generation of hatred is being fed... So what is the short term...

Hamas has 40% support from Palestinians but the slaughter of concert goers and burning of babies has 80% support. Incredibly, it appears Hamas isn't extreme enough for them. People still banging on about a ceasefire. There was a ceasefire on October 6th. Israel must show no mercy and annihilate tho...

Why are you trying to be so disingenuous? The vast majority of the people of Gaza did not vote in that election.

Yes. They built tunnels not quays. Is Zimbabwe an open air prison by your measure ? Zimbabweans can travel to and from Zimbabwe at will.

Clearly not.

True . It’s a slippery slope blaming either Israelis as a collective let alone all Palestinians. Don’t you dare even start to include Jews as being nodding in agreement either . It’s the kind of creative mischievous bullshit that the other ‘side’ maintains , and it’s absolutely wrong both morally a...

I think a two state solution can work provided that Netanyahu, Hamas and the PLO are not involved in government on either side. Otherwise there is no chance. The likelihood of success for two state solutions would go up if constitutions only allowed women majority of parliaments. A complete pipedre...

I guess you don't understand what annihilation means then :(( You're putting the cart before the horse.

So you see no chance of a ceasefire because that would interfere with Israel's annihilation plans....is that what you are saying?

The attack on the US base named Tower 22 was pulled off in a way that screams Iran involvment.

Hamas run to 40-50000 men.
The ICJ thinks you're wrong which isn't surprising because you normally are.

But arguing that, because Israel are fighting terrorists, there is another standard to be applied to civilian casualties is reminiscent of the nazi argument. I don't think that in of itself is an argument many have made. The more common argument is that there will be a lot of casualties because Ham...

CNN hasn't been the worst. reasonably early on they had the interview with the American nurse which was pretty damning of Israel.
