Israel said on Thursday there would be no humanitarian exceptions to its siege of the Gaza Strip until all its hostages were freed, after the Red Cross pleaded for fuel to be allowed in to prevent overwhelmed hospitals from "turning into morgues".
Your position might have been reasonable two weeks ago. Today, reconciliation with a hostile enemy who is actively murdering and kidnapping your civilians is both inappropriate and foolish.
I’m a fool then. It’s called settler colonialism. And even if I don’t agree with the methods, who am I to judge those who are oppressed. Israel enabled Hamas. So if you don’t like what they did, blame Israel. It’s not complicated.

“Look what you made me do!” Screamed the terrorist as he murdered old women, kidnapped innocents to be used as hostages, paraded bloodied bodies through the streets, beheaded babies, and raped civilians in front of their dead friends.
Your bent logic doesn’t work. Was I vile when I nearly cried as I watched a young, barely teen, Palestinian girl pulled from the rubble of her home after it was bombed? If that’s vile, so be it. I stand with Palestine! Not Hamas. Palestine! You stand with Settler Terrorism.

That is worthy of sympathy, what’s vile is then saying this justifies mediaeval brutality against civilians. There’s a difference between collateral damage and intentionally murdering civilians. Israel goes to great lengths to minimize collateral damage, often giving targets of their strikes advanced warning. If Israel behaved like Hamas, if they went by the same playbook and sought to maximize civilian deaths, there would be no Palestine. The behaviors of these actors are not morally equivalent.

Palestinians of Gaza elected Hamas, they are the representatives that they chose to represent them. Don’t pretend this is an unrelated entity. These attacks were not orchestrated by some clandestine civilians, it was the genocidal government they chose behaving the way they said they would.
You’ve been brainwashed. You have no understanding of the history of this conflict. I’ll let Richard Boyd Barret explain it. Don’t bother shopping for shoes, you have no legs to stand on.

Yeah really compelling. What you support is vile.

Thanks for the link, all respects to Mr. Barret but he is wrong.
If they were starving Gaza out they would have closed the Egyptian border as well and kept it closed. All of that can get in via supply lines from there.
Gaza hasn’t been under occupation since 2005. The parts of the 4th Geneva convention being cited here only applies to occupied territories. Gaza is a hostile enemy territory that Israel is defending themselves against, the UN found Israel’s 2010 naval blockade of Gaza to be legal for this reason. Suggesting Israel should be forced to supply a hostile foreign power that is actively killing their people is an insane proposition.
Lol. I’m gonna let you cook for a week and see if you feel the same way.
If you still feel the same way after the bombings, you might want to start gathering wooden rods… for a bundle, and don’t forget the axe.
