You can't trust that because he could have said that so he wouldn't be killed, put in jail or tortured and it's those who threaten his life who say that. Quote

Or do you mean the one who disobeyed or misinterpreted or didn't hear the order to cease fire? The competence of the IDF on display here probably explains why it's killed so many women and children in its campaign. But then perhaps that's just an indication of successful vengeance? Israel's Netanyahu vows 'mighty vengeance' against Hamas https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israels-netanyahu-vows-mighty-vengeance-against-hamas-2023-10-07/ Question, did you blame the collapse of the western fisheries, on a few fishermen, or a few government officials... becasue thats what your doing here.... but hamas supporters generally are quick to fire back some BS comments before knowing what the real issue is... IDF has over 300,000 troops on the ground, currently yet you find it easy to paint all of them with one brush.....during the time when these Hostage's were killed there was no cease fire...bullets were flying both ways, check your media sources.......just a point of order, oct 7 attack by Hamas was carried out during a cease fire, I know right it only works one way........which means nothing to your brothers in arms... Yes many women and children have been killed in these attacks, but this is just a talking point for you and your terrorist friends to convert the uneducated about this conflict....., the reason i comment on this is you have not mentioned anything of any other women and children being killed around the world in conflicts ...no you like to concentrate on those terrorist's that wantonly kill children in front of their parents, who shoot small infants, rape defenseless women and then parade their bloody bodies for everyone to see, the same people who phone their mothers to brag about who many defenseless women they have killed during the oct 7.... These are the people you have chosen to defend...these are the people that you stand with.....and their victims are the ones you choose to ignore.... Vengeance...you can call it many things, it takes over everyone involved...soldiers, politicians, citizens...everyone touched by conflict...something you can not even imigine here in Canada, unless you have lived it...so spare me all the drama About how Israel wants vengeance... Of course they do...everyone that has something ripped out of your arms and killed wants vengeance...and this conflict will not stop until they have their fill, when Hamas is no longer in charge of Gaza, when Hamas terror network is destroyed...when hamas has no control of Palestinians....Until then Israel does not care what you or the world thinks about them, it is not listening period...you've already picked a side so your voice means nothing.

I don't agree what is happening in the wets bank, but i understand it, since 1948 Israel has been under attack and the 7 th was the straw that broke the camels back....there is nothing but hatred on both sides, there will never be peace as long as the Palestinians are in the area....want peace start looking for a new Palestinian state... I do live on a one way street...i made a career fighting terrorist, and they are all alike, every last one of them...Hamas does not care about Palestinians, and Palestinians cling to Hamas like they are gods....i can't change that either can you, only they can....and they have not suffered enough to see that clearly....this conflict will not be over in a year, 10 or 20 years, it will be ongoing longer than me and you are alive....this is the start....not the middle nor the end, the start of suffering for both sides...when Palestinians have had enough they will ask for peace...not before.... I'm not the one supporting Hamas or it's people...thats you....you want to save them convince them to raise up against hamas and end this...but thats never going to happen becasue they the majority of Palestinians support Hamas...and all their actions....

The gaza people overwhelmingly support hamas and are now living with the consequences of that. 1. Yup 2. Oh it's clear support amongst Palestinians for Hamas has gone up since Oct 7 but it's interesting to note that when thousands of Israelis were protesting the most extreme government in Israel's history that thousands of Palestinians were also protesting against Hamas. GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — Several thousand people briefly took to the streets across the Gaza Strip on Sunday to protest chronic power outages and difficult living conditions, providing a rare public show of discontent with the territory’s Hamas government. Hamas security forces quickly dispersed the gatherings. Marches took place in Gaza City, the southern town of Khan Younis and other locations, chanting “what a shame” and in one place burning Hamas flags, before police moved in and broke up the protests. Police destroyed mobile phones of people who were filming in Khan Younis, and witnesses said there were several arrests. Dozens of young supporters and opponents of Hamas briefly faced off, throwing stones at one another. https://apnews.com/article/gaza-hamas-demonstration-israel-blockade-palestinians-306b19228f9dd21f1036386ce3709672 I wouldn't be surprised if support for Netanyahu has increased since Oct 7 as well. Hamas and Likud go together like peas and carrots. 3. The protests all over the world are overwhelmingly in support of Palestine not Hamas.

How many people at these protests are chanting ' from the river to the sea' and all that it implies? Probably a hell of a lot fewer than the number of Israelis that say precisely the same thing. They've been saying it for decades now in fact. The phrase was also used by the Israeli ruling Likud party as part of their 1977 election manifesto which stated "Judea and Samaria will not be handed to any foreign administration; between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty." This slogan was repeated by Menachem Begin. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_the_river_to_the_sea#:~:text=The phrase was also used,was repeated by Menachem Begin. Here's Netanyahu showing the world what Israel means just a couple of weeks before Oct 7. During a speech before the United Nations General Assembly on September 22, 2023, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu holds up a map that shows Israel stretching “from the river to the sea.” https://www.thenation.com/article/world/its-time-to-confront-israels-version-of-from-the-river-to-the-sea/#:~:text=During a speech before the,the river to the sea.” Edited December 22, 2023 by eyeball Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

And your link shows they're not protesting hamas at all, they're protesting power outages and difficult living conditions. THey want the gov't to try to fix that - they're not even calling for the removal of hamas. So no. It wasn't interesting. The public supports hamas. THey support the actions hamas has taken.

Gaétan Posted December 22, 2023 Author Report Posted December 22, 2023 Hamas, contrary to the propaganda conveyed in the media, are not terrorists but vigilantes, Israeli settlers and their soldiers kill Palestinians every day and the justice system in this country does nothing, so they took the law into their own hands Quote

I'll write slow here...Palestinian people don't want peace with Israel until they are destroyed...THERE WILL BE NO peace...So while you throw your support behind a terrorist state and it's people you also don't want peace.... This hate is already generations old...it will not stop until one side is destroyed...Have you seen what hamas teaches it's children in schools...they laugh in your face , they will not accept anything but Israel's destruction....Israel is not going to curl up into a ball and die...it will defend itself even if it means every last Palestinian dies... I did not truly understand the word "hate" until i spent 8 months in Israel, both sides HATE each other, not dislike but HATE to the point where killing each other is the only option...for most of the population on both sides...every man/ women in the police, security force and army carry military weapons' every where they go, to work, on the busses , going to the bank, the store, every where....the country is constantly at a state of war....There is no line in the sand to cross, but rather a 6 foot deep trench.... 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

If millions want to destroy Israel, what difference does it make if a few want peace? They have no influence or say. The terrorists and anti-Israel radicals run the show.
