Overwhelming evidence has emerged over the past three weeks of deliberate attacks against Israeli civilians, as part of the instructions given by Hamas commanders. In many cases, the terrorists went from house to house and executed or burned entire families, and some 260 civilians were massacred at an outdoor music festival.
I’m not defending either government. They both clearly killed civilians intentionally
They’ve both made statements they wanted to destroy the opposing government.
Pointing that out shouldn’t be controversial.
I gave you the relevant part of the quote, from the article, were Hamas was laying out their policy. They’re lying, but their policy as stated is equivalent to the Israeli government policy. Which is exactly what you were asking me to provide in your previous comment
Their policy is also stated in their charter, which goes beyond just killing all Israeli civilians. It says they will kill all the Jews everywhere in the world.
But perhaps you’d prefer to see actions - Israel is currently engaged in urban combat with an enemy who intentionally uses civilian infrastructure (a war crime, by the way). There will be collateral damage from this, especially when Hamas don’t allow civilians to evacuate out of the heavy combat areas.
Hamas on the other hand are continuing to launch rockets daily at civilian targets in Israel, intentionally targeting civilians while celebrating every rocket siren.
Did you just threaten to shoot me in the head? You’re threatening violence against me for an internet discussion?
Putting that aside, Hamas is a terrible organization, they shouldn’t exist, and they need to be deposed. I’m on board with that.
I’m pointing out that both belligerence have taken equivalent positions, that they want to destroy the opposing government. And a lot of civilians are going to die in the middle regardless of the rhetoric.
Nope. I’m just saying when things do hit the fan, that the side you are on isn’t gonna fair well.
And no, again you are lying claiming that Hamas said anything about the government. I directly quoted them saying they intend to keep targeting civilians and completely annihilate the entire nation of Israel.
That’s not an equivalent position in the least.
Yes a lot of civilians will die. Mostly because Hamas keeps targeting civilians and operating military bases in civilian infrastructure like hospitals and schools. Hamas already said they don’t care about their civilians and intend to martyr them. They use civilians as shields and intentionally get them killed. That’s on purpose because they’re fucking terrorists.
Hell they kill more Palestinian civilians than the IDF.
Apparently you have not. Because the article literally directly quotes him saying
“We must teach Israel a lesson, and we will do it twice and three times. The Al-Aqsa Deluge [the name Hamas gave its October 7 onslaught] is just the first time, and there will be a second, a third, a fourth,” Hamad continued. “Will we have to pay a price? Yes, and we are ready to pay it. We are called a nation of martyrs, and we are proud to sacrifice martyrs.”
The attack where they intentionally targeted civilians. He is saying they will do again and again. They will intentionally target civilians over and over again. By his own words.
And saying he will sacrifice his own civilians. Like I said.
And
When asked whether this meant the complete annihilation of Israel, Hamas replied: “Yes, of course.”
Like I said. They want to annihilate the entire nation of Israel. Like verbatim.
I mean the dude literally said they would keep doing the same thing they did on Oct 7th. By name. Targeting civilians, until there is no Israeli nation. That literally means killing or forcing every Jewish civilian out of the region. Just like they did during the Muslim conquest of the region.
You’re very obviously on the side of Hamas given you’re outright lying about their quotes and defending their targeting of Jewish civilians. Nobody cares about your bullshit semantic arguments. Everyone can see who you are, and it doesn’t matter. Your kind will be defeated when it comes to it.
Here The term Israel is vague. It’s often used as both the government, the Jewish people, and the religion.
I don’t presume to speak for Hamas when they’re talking about the destruction of Israel. But if we take the two parts of the article together, that a Hamas spokesperson says they’re not targeting civilians, and they want to end Israel. That at least at a PR level doesn’t sound like the death of the Jewish people. So if we take those two statements quoted from Hamas in the article at face value, that would imply that in that context they’re talking about the end of the Israeli government. Which is equivalent to what the Israeli government wants, the end of Hamas government. Which is my entire point
I don’t want that to happen, and I don’t support Hamas I feel like I have to say that again.
I’m done arguing with you. Hamas verbatim said they will conduct the same attacks on civilians.
The attack on October 7th was entirely civilians and Hamas said they will do exactly the same thing over and over again.
The term Israel is not vague at all. They want to kill every non Muslim. They have said and done this repeatedly. When they took over Gaza by violent coup in 2007 they started murdering al news and Christians in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas wasn’t elected. They just executed the elected government in Gaza and started killing civilians to secure their rule.
He also repeated the false assertion that Hamas had not intended to harm civilians, but that there were “complications” on the ground.
From the article above
Finish the quote:
Your mental gymnastics are Olympic level, mate.

Which side do you think I’m on exactly?
I’m applying critical reading skills to every news article I’m coming across.

But go on and defend them.
Didn’t meet and cause you distress, I apologize
For what it’s worth I’m opposed to all fascist militarized theocracies hell-bent on ethnic cleansing. That means I am anti-Hamas 100%.
