You’d be better off asking why Hamas started a war they knew they’d lose, why the prolong it in the face of their people suffering.
Even better maybe ask why you support them? How have they made life better for their people? This situation was completely predictable and completely avoidable.
You’re right, it was completely avoidable. Bibi could have followed through on all that intelligence telling him of a pending Hamas attack. Hell, he could have never funded Hamas in the first place, which is why they even have power.
Calling Hamas “democratically elected” is a huge stretch. Hamas recieved 44.45% of votes in the last election, which was in 2006. They are absolutely not in any way accountable to the people they rule. The average Palestinian has about as much chance of freeing those hostages as I have of breaking people out of Guantanamo.
Oh yeah, Israeli governments sending tons of cash to Hamas is totally unrelated. That’s why you’d prefer to not talking about it. Not because it breaks the narrative of the poor innocent israel. Right?
Why would Hamas surrender? This is great for them. They need war to justify their existence, and they don’t care about the civilians of Gaza much more than the IDF does.
Perhaps Palestineans shouldn’t support a group that’s willing to kill so many of them, (polls indicate Hamas has widespread public support both in Gaza and the West Bank,) evidently this is what said civilians want.
Dude, firstly that’s called collective punishment, which is a war crime if that even matters anymore. Secondly, this was never about hostages, it’s about cleansing Palestine. The hostages were just an excuse.
Perhaps they could go get those hostages?
Prolonging this war is just causing harm to Palestinians. Hamas needs to surrender now.
Yeah, why all those newborns did not walk to take and free the hostages before getting bombed I ask? Too lazy? It’s their fault certainly… /s
Esp since (prior to the war) 50% of the Palestinian population was children.
Never believe the IDF when they say they didn’t target kids.
Prove it. All evidence indicates they don’t care much about collateral damage but do go to great lengths to choose legal military targets.
What evidence? You seem to enjoy making comments but provide little to no verfiable proof of such.
Oh, and here’s mine.

None of that indicates that the IDF intentionally targets kids. Those are likely collateral damage, considering Hamas hides among civilians.
Israel literally built an AI to help them select legal military targets faster than humans can. This would be an odd thing to do if they were targeting civilians and didn’t care about military objectives.
You asked for proof. I gave some.
Where’s yours? Did you forget or just ignore?
Edit … cause what you gave is crap.
Actually, you didn’t. Yours is a claim of intention, which that article does not establish.
Good to know that isn’t a credible source, thanks. Feel free to learn about said AI elsewhere.
Then here’s more sources. I’ll wait for you to provide similar for your statements.

Sad little gamer must upvote his own posts to feel love.
That makes me a sad panda
Seriously, what’s with the self upvoting?
Yeah! It’s like all of those decapitated babies!
The IDF never lies!

Completely avoidable.
Pretty sure Hamas was democratically elected but if you need to shift blame back to Israel with some impressive mental gymnastics go right ahead.
If you could put down your hate for two seconds it’s time to realise Hamas aren’t winning this and dragging this war out is just hurting Palestinians.

Or I could ask why they were being financed by Israel. Could I ask that too, couldn’t I?
Thanks for being brave enough to focus on important questions like who funds Hamas.
Too many people are getting distracted by silly things like humanitarian crises but you’re out here fighting the real fight!

Why do you self upvote?
Are you that desperate for internet points?
Do you just want someone to see your little upvote like priming the tip jar?
What makes you so desperate?
I know another person that acts the same way, are you @downpunxxx alt?
Israel has already stated its aim is to hunt Hamas to extinction and at least temporarily occupy Gaza.
Sounds like a good reason to surrender, unless they prefer extinction.
Are you really so sad you have to upvote your own posts?
That’s pathetic
