I condemned the terrorist attack by Hamas and now I condemn the indiscriminate shelling of Gaza by Israel.

When US faced the insurgents hiding inside Ramadi, they didn’t bomb the city to hell. They fought street by street, block by block, to gain control of the city and expel the insurgents.

It cost more lives of US soldiers but it was the right thing to do.

Israel is creating the next wave of Hamas members with its indiscriminate shelling of civilians.

And as a side note, the war in Irak was a total waste of US lives. There was no reason to be there besides spending more money in another war.

It actually backfired and the region is now a bigger threat to the US national security because of that war

💯

America 🇺🇸 will go to hell

Hamas intentionally uses civilians as human shields and stores their munitions underneath schools and hospitals. Israel targeted aerial strikes as best they could given this reality on the ground and the complete disregard for civilian life by Gaza. Also, Israel gave warning to Gazans in the North to evacuate as per international law. Hamas is the only entity committing war crimes here, at least so far.

Yes Hamas is doing that. But that doesn’t mean that’s ok to bomb everyone.

Are those people free to tell Hamas to store their ammunitions somewhere else? I truly don’t know.

I know that at some point Hamas was elected in Gaza but I don’t know how free elections are there now.

Israel is going to get tangled in a much bigger war and eventually will have more casualties than if they had gone block by block.

Recall that Hamas continues to fire rockets towards Israeli cities this whole time. The best way to counter those assaults with expediency is through aerial strikes. War is awful, I agree. But this is a just war. And Israel should seek to continue to minimize civilian casualties as much as possible, which it is doing as best I can tell in spite of Hamas’s willingness to hide behind and among them

I’m now thinking of WWII. Both Germans and Allied bombed cities and killed civilians to “force a political change”, terrorize or just because the other side was doing it.

And yet we don’t hear about those war crimes. They’re not even listed as war crimes.
