When you start making excuses for one side, e.g. Hamas, killing civilians you end up excusing the other side doing the same. The people in charge of b...
Agree or disagree people? I have no time for anyone who disagrees with this unless they are directly affected by / involved in the conflict in which c...
I think it's been explained to you that you can't eliminate an idea and that by killing Palestininan civilians you create more Hamas especially in the...
That's frankly stupid and exculpatory. Of course they have a choice. They could have chosen not to kill babies in Al Shifa. You're not worth talking t...
Maybe I'm banging my head against a brick wall but I want to say again, the lives of Israeli and Palestinian civilians, especially children, are equal...
By the way, to any of those on the Palestinian "side" who think the hostages should be kept as bargaining chips, I say again, get your moral head out ...
What question? Why the Palestinians don't want the hostages released? Israel hasn't promised a ceasefire if they are, has it? What do you think the be...
The confusion is 100% on your side. How hard is it to understand that civilians should be released when it's written in black and white in front of yo...
First of all, if I'm Prime minister of anywhere, I work within international law from the start and within a moral framework that balances national in...
Of course the, civilian at least, hostages should be released because they are innocents and keeping them hostage is a war crime. Military personnel t...
Thinking about how many more Muslims will be radicalized watching those scenes and how much more death and destruction they'll mete out to innocents a...
Lol. You don't care about a war where thousands of civilians are being killed but you insist on posting on the thread because you do care that someone...
Ok, so you don't care or know much about this. The sensible thing would be not to post here then. I consider criticism of those who do care enough to ...
I understand that's your viewpoint and it's a necessarily perspectival one. But the people of Gaza can say the same and then what? Are Hamas then bein...
If Israel had a bomb they could drop and kill every Hamas member right now and also immunize the area from the idea of Hamas forever, I'd be all for i...
You can't "destroy" Hamas by brutalizing the Palestinian people. Hamas is an idea as much as a group. You can temporarily inhibit their capacity to hu...
You can't fully eliminate risk to your citizens at any cost. That would justify the killing of every Palestinian if even one Israeli citizen's life we...
40,000 Hamas militants who have killed some hundreds of Israelis in recent years are not Nazi Germany who had an army in the tens of millions, killed ...
The "bad guys" here are not all on one side; they are on both sides, they are the ones who cannot get their moral head out of their arse long enough e...
As I said before, unless you can clarify that you care as much about the lives of Palestinian civilians and also equally assert the Palestinian's basi...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=te1y7ahp2LQ&t=424s Worth quoting at length (from YT transcript): "I'm not pro Palestinian I'm not pro-israeli I'm Pro ...
"Children are Children, Whether in Israel or Gaza, they Never Deserve to Die. In the fascist reality now sweeping Israel, even such a statement is con...
Speaking of useful idiots, your self-contradictory arguments, strawmen, and tu quoque fallacies represent a neat, if hyperbolic, summary of your more ...
Maybe democracies and those who are in favor of minority rights should also be against war crimes? Anyway, honestly, that's it. You are writing nonsen...
Yes No, no more than it would be a better place should we kill more Israeli civilians because they support Israel's war crimes. Honestly, you are extr...
War crimes are just fine? Ok, thanks for that. Anyhow, most of the casualties are not Hamas. I don't care what happens to Hamas militants. Put them in...
/uploads/resized/files/rz/yf9csnrsh7s33pdt.jpg A child killed by an IDF airstrike on a hospital. If you're happy she was "taught a lesson", I again fe...
I would prefer to live as far away as possible from people like you. I have met Palestinians. They're human. And I have no sympathy for Hamas who are ...
I feel sorry for you. To others who are less homicidal, Palestinian civilians are not Nazis, they are poor, dispossessed and a plurality are more like...
If you think bombing a school full of children and e.g. killing them all is justified because there also happen to be some militants in that school us...
Here's another thing, if you come at this from the point of view that Israeli lives are more important than Palestinian lives. If you would not make e...
Thank you for having the patience to deal with the apologists on here with some basic facts, common sense, and humanity. As has been pointed out, if I...
Been perusing some of Churchill's racist quotes. They do sound like the sort of thing Trump would say. Therefore, racism is fine, I guess. The useful ...
Sorry, can't talk right now. I'm currently being captivated by the glorious past. I'm not sure if I'm still in the ruins or in my hotel room. And to b...
I was at an ancient temple today. You can get your phone out and point it at the ruins and see what they looked like when they weren't ruins. It's lik...
This thread is about the current Israel / Palestine conflict. Off-topic posts and their replies are being and will be deleted. + Anti-semites (and Isl...
Yes, there's hardly a greater horror then torturing civilians, including children, to death by burying them in rubble or burning them with white phosp...
Anyhow, your reasoning on close proximity killing was faulty imo because it was based on contingencies that could theoretically apply to either party ...
You see the relation though, right? When we achieve some physical and emotional distance from our acts of killing we can start to leverage that into a...
If that AND they had reason to believe their bombs would not cause collateral damage. If, on the other hand, they had reason to believe they would, no...
Who says either party "want" to do it more? They're soldiers and in both cases doing their jobs. Maybe the bomber gets a sadistic kick out of blowing ...
But... the revision (at least) is my thought experiment and I stipulate it's not conditioned by some political situation (of any relevance to the ethi...
Well, I happened to be taking the Orient Express to Paris the other day and they were serving these: www.cravethegood.com/next-level-mashed-potatoes N...
Yes, but TPF category = Ethics. And the implications to how we think about these things are important imo (they allow advanced states to act under tec...
