That’s my point. It’s not a war. It’s a slaughter. Israel is trying to make it seem like a war but when you compare the number of casualties, it’s very clearly one-sided. The side with a big military and the most advanced weapon technology vs some terrorists and civilians, no wonder.
And approaching it like a war doesn’t work, you’re just going to get more terrorists (unless the Israeli plan is actually full on genocide). The US figured that out the hard way already after 9/11,too, so I’m not saying they’re that much better or anything. You have to let people be free and then negotiate with them. No oppressed people are ever happy to stay that way. You have to fight them forever. And while that was clearly the Israel plan up to now, it seems you don’t accept the risks of a 10/7 happening every now and then. It’s a natural consequence, like the occasional slave revolt in the US pre-civil war.
That leaves two options. Israel can allow Palestinian sovereignty and equal human rights, without having the removal of Hamas as a precondition. Work together to take them out after removing normal Palestinians as an enemy by granting freedom, human rights, allowing supplies in, stop expanding in the West Bank, allow some right to return andetc. Working together as allies instead of as an occupier (the UK approach with the IRA or the South African approach). Or alternatively, full on genocide (the approach in North America and Australia), which a lot of people don’t agree with for what should be an obvious reason. Because bombing Hamas to death doesn’t work, you’re just making more terrorists, and have been since the main Zionist plan became the revisionist one of kicking people out their homes and taking their land. Either they know that and are happy with an endless war at the cost of innocent lives, or they’re planning on genocide or ethnic cleansing, or they’re naive.
Yep. Ok. America is the best at war. Good luck to you.
