The White House said Sunday that “it’s the right time” for Israel to scale back its military offensive in the Gaza Strip, as Israeli leaders again vowed to press ahead with their operation against the territory’s ruling Hamas militant group.
The comments exposed the growing differences between the close allies on the 100th day of the war.
Gaza has chosen to completely blur the boundaries between combatants, locations used for terrorist attacks and the civilian population. They expected to Israel to just sit on their hands and go “duh, guess we’ll have to accept them kidnapping people and wildly shooting missiles at us.”
That was a fucking dumb expectation and now everyone there has to pay for it.
You might say they are being punished collectively. Like collective punishment. Aka a war crime
Maybe Israel could… Not starve them. Maybe let them actually have an economy. These things would really help.
Ungodly amounts of money were pumped into Gaza and all they have to show for it is tunnels for terrorists to hide in, weapons caches in every house and thousands of rockets. Is that supposed to be the “economy” of Gaza?
Also there is no need for you to respond, this outs you as a disgusting creature completely lost to any form of reason.
Which doesn’t help when you can’t actually use it to buy things. Israel’s blockade is calculated so it keeps Gaza on the brink of collapse after aid.
