Merged Gaza just launched an unprovoked attack on Israel

Citing rabbinical ideas is anti-Jewish? Ok….

When the post starts with:

I wonder if beliefs like the following could explain Israel's comfort with killing children?

Then yeah, your post is viciously anti-jewish.
Tom

Or, just ethically anti-infanticide.

What?
Who is making choices that result in dead babies in Gaza?
Tom

Israeli government and Hamas.

Israeli government and Hamas.

Only them?

Israel is responding to the violent attacks that have been taking place for decades. But somehow, you left out Iran.
Why is that?

[TomC]

You don't seem to recognize it when Muslims do it any more than Barbos recognizes it when Russians do it.
Tom

Hamas has no ability to commit ethnic cleansing against the Israelis.

No they don't.
That would take a much bigger part of the Muslim community.

Then why do you continue to claim Hamas is committing ethnic cleansing?

Hamas is working on a ethnic cleansing of Gaza.
Israel too, but they won't get far with that.

Okay. add Iran. What difference does it make?

Without Islamic money I don't think Hamas could have done the ethnic cleansing.
Iran is a major source of ethnic cleansing fundage.

You've already conceded that Hamas is not engaged in ethnic cleansing in Israel.
Let me get this straight - you claim Hamas is engaged in  Ethnic_cleansing

Ethnic cleansing is the systematic forced removal of ethnic, racial, or religious groups from a given area, with the intent of making a region ethnically homogeneous.

of Gaza.



You do realize that Gaza is basically already ethnically homogeneous. So what on earth are you talking about?

But even with the Iran funding you admit that Hamas cannot commit ethnic cleansing.

What makes you say that?

Hamas is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of Gaza.

They've made a bunch of choices that has resulted in a terrible, untenable, situation for millions of people.

Iran and Qatar and people like that funded it. But it did happen.

That's the reality, whether it suits your narrative or not. Gazans are in a desperate way and it's because Muslim terrorists chose death and destruction. Israel is responding to the choices made by Muslims.

ETA ~Let me put this terms that most of y'all will understand.
Why are people like Trump and MTG busy destroying the US? Because it's advantageous for them, personally, right at the moment.~

I don't necessarily agree with all of this as I'd have to research it in its entirety, but in the meantime I find it very interesting:

Benjamin Netanyahu Is America’s Worst Ally

The Israeli prime minister continues to insult the Biden administration, which has been the best friend Bibi’s besieged government can ever hope to have.

No, they are not engaged in   Ethnic_cleansing in the generally accepted meaning of the word. It is more than inane to suggest that Hamas is trying to make Gaza ethnically homogenous.

Hamas incites Israel to choose to make horrific damage to Gaza and its civilians, but Hamas is not engaged in ethnic cleansing of Gazans.

Really, one can make a rational argument within making insane claims.

Are you saying that there is no ethnic cleansing going on?
I've heard current events described as "genocide", what's with that?

Bottom line though remains, Gazans are suffering horribly because of choices made by Muslims.

There is no ethnic cleansing by Hamas in Gaza. Not by the generally accepted meaning of the term (that I have linked twice - please educate yourself).

There is no  Genocide under the generally accepted meaning of the term. People are using hyperbolic rhetoric - you know, like claiming Hamas is engaged in ethnic cleansing in Gaza.

Bottom line though remains, Gazans are suffering horribly because of choices made by Muslims.

Choice made by Muslims and Jews. Hamas did not do this all by themselves - Israel made choices as well.

 

[TomC]

Israel chose to respond to the choices made by Muslims.
Muslims made the choices that resulted in the ethnic cleansing that is going on. And it is, Gazans are in a terrible position. Dying in droves.

It's inconvenient for Hamas and their supporters to end the disaster, so on it goes. Likely for generations, although it will be a long time before they can mount an attack like Oct 7.
Which is what Israel is after. Not peace, that's not possible. But an end to the ability of Muslim terrorists to launch more attacks for the foreseeable future.

Why do you insist in perpetuating the falsehood that ethnic cleansing is occurring in Gaza?

Muslims made choices that incited Israel to make choices how to react that is causing this terrible humanitarian tragedy.

 

[TomC]

Why do you insist in perpetuating the falsehood that ethnic cleansing is occurring in Gaza?

Be sure and correct everyone who refers to what is happening in Gaza as ethnic cleansing.
Okay?
Because I get tired of being told that there is ethnic cleansing going on there, by Israel.

U.S. pauses some weapons to Israel as battles rage around Rafah​

CAIRO/WASHINGTON/RAFAH, Gaza Strip, May 8 (Reuters) - Hamas said it was battling Israeli troops on the outskirts of the Gaza Strip's crowded southern city of Rafah on Wednesday after a U.S. official said Washington had halted a shipment of powerful bombs that Israel could use in a full-scale assault.

The United States, which is seeking to stave off an Israeli invasion of Rafah, said it believes a revised Hamas ceasefire proposal may lead to a breakthrough in an impasse in negotiations, with talks resuming in Cairo on Wednesday.

U.S. pauses bombs shipment to Israel amid Rafah assault dispute

The pause comes as the Biden administration pushes for Israel and Hamas to compromise and reach a cease-fire deal that would head off a large-scale assault on the city in southern Gaza, where more than a million Palestinians are sheltering in dire conditions.
