You paint Gazans and Hamas as mindless robots that want only to kill and take over the world. I can't believe that there are such people in the world aside from some political leaders out there. I think it's more likely that most Gazans just want to live good lives just like the rest of us. Instead, they've been living in horrible conditions of poverty and destitution. It seems to me that it would be better to treat them like human beings.Janoah wrote: ↑Sat Mar 02, 2024 10:41 pmIsrael pays a terrible price, guys, instead of doing science, art, production, they go to defend the Land of Israel, die, and remain crippled.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Thu Feb 29, 2024 7:47 pmHow much is it worth to Israel to "neutralize" Hamas?Janoah wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2024 3:40 pm
After the atrocities that Hamas committed, Israel has an obligation to neutralize it.
We are not talking about Hamas attacking “again”, it is not stopping.
The fact that he keeps a million of his co-religionists as a human shield suggests that he continues his atrocities, and he does not care about the life of the population in Gaza.
Terrorists are firing rockets at the entire Country and killing civilians.
But to make it clear clearly, Hamas’s goal is not a “Palestinian state", but global jihad, and they do not hide it. Their goal is to establish the power of Islam wherever there are people.
Israel for them is a tactical goal, which in their minds they can achieve with greater ease, and the strategic goal is the whole world.
From their fundamental, theological point of view, “polytheistic Christians”, atheists, are for them an even greater “evil” than the Jews.
And they will get to you too, local lovers of jihadists, they will get there and kill you with pleasure, just help them get to you.
But I won’t engage in any more political analysis here; the topic here is philosophical, not political actualities.
I've met a few Palestinians who've immigrated to the US in my life. They get here and they just want to live good lives like everyone else. They're not out spreading Jihad on our streets. When people are backed into a corner, they tend to lash out as Israelis are now doing also. I wish you the best, however, I think Israeli officials are becoming overzealous now. If the situation can be de-escalated, then I think we will all find out that we are not much different from each other.
