This shows it’s not about Hamas. It was never about Hamas. There is no Hamas in the West Bank.
This shows you know nothing, you never really knew anything to begin with. There are in fact Hamas members in the West Bank. They’re just not the ruling government.
It’s not the same. If Israel wants to go after terrorists, that’s one thing. But that’s not what we’re seeing. We’re seeing civilians targeted en masse, without food, water, medicine, fuel, electricity. It’s genocidal and it must end
Oh really? Inform us how Israel should target these terrorists hiding under schools and hospitals than.
You think withholding food and water to civilians is acceptable?
crickets
Hmm
A Hamas spokesman is among more than 60 members of the militant organization detained by Israel in overnight raids across the West Bank

Settler colonial states and using the terrorists they radicalised as an excuse to do more genocide, name a more iconic combo
America is so jealous rn
Genocide continues. (The alternate summary)
Israel really needs to just dismantle these illegal settlements like they did in Gaza in 2005.
Bold of you to call for a direct comparison to something that led to the current situation with Hamas.
Huh?
Israel pulling out of Gaza is what let Hamas take over and cause terror for over 15 years.
I don’t think anything short of a full blown military occupation could have prevented that. Maybe that’s where this is going to end up, I don’t know.
Why aren’t they reporting on this in western media?!!1! /s
Hamas probably didn’t tell them to report it.
This is disgusting - Israel should do everything to stop this.
Israel won’t stop with it unless Western world, I assume especially US do something about it.
I support Israel. It’s time for the Palestinians to move out, forced or not. It’ll suck for them to relocate and resettle, but at least we might finally have peace in the middle east. Better than more war.
what, that’s ethnic cleansing.
Yes, but there is ethnic cleansing in all directions. If the conflict continues, ethnic cleansing. If a stable peace can be found in favor of Israel, ethnic cleansing. If a stable peace can be found in favor of Palestine, ethnic cleansing. A compromise? Ethnic cleansing. Change my mind.
What the fuck are you saying. It is entirely possible for people to coexist peacefully, like they did under the ottomans, under 1 secular state.
Maybe the situation has changed. Some parts of Palestine see themselves as opressed, see negotiations and compromise as futile. They want their land back. Some parts of Israel will not want to cede that without a fight. Others are worried of being suicide bombed in coexistence.
People in general can coexist peacefully. But in the current timeline, it isn’t obvious how peace could be achieved without anyone moving.
All parts of Palestine are oppressed and see negotiations as futile because Israel does not negotiate in good faith. When compromising means giving up the right to return to the land you were kicked out of, can you really blame them for not wanting to compromise?
On top of this, if they’re no longer oppressed, people no longer feel the need to turn to Hamas and other terrorist organizations.
Saying you support Israel for that reason is like saying you support apartheid in south Africa or colonial algeria because if you don’t support them the people in power will be ethnically cleansed.
So what’s the solution without any ethnical cleansing?
1 state secular solution, Palestinians have the same rights as isralis, Hamas and IDF people are tried and punished for war crimes, kick out all settlers.
