 How does Benjamin Netanyahu's government survive this? More and more is coming out that his administration totally failed to prevent this attack even with advanced intelligence.

IDF killed three of their own hostages after they ran out for help and were mistaken as a threat. Casualty of just going around and shooting civilians as has been reported by Arab media outlets.

Or someone genuinely mistook them for a threat.

Israel killed four hostages at Entebbe during the rescue; they ordered all the hostages in Hebrew to stay on the floor when they stormed the terminal so they could shoot the terrorists. Three of them didn't comply and a fourth didn't speak Hebrew.


Seems like the indiscriminate killing by the IDF killed their own people in this case.

Hostages were carrying white flag on a stick when Israeli troops mistakenly shot them dead in Gaza, IDF says

Israel Found the Hamas Money Machine Years Ago. Nobody Turned It Off.

 Both Israel and The United States knew about Hamas funding sources for years and took no action to shut it down. They on the other hand have been focused on Iran. Hamas funding sources are very varied and not solely Iran based either. Failure to stop Oct 7th was a massive intelligence failure by Israeli authorities and the Netanyahu government. How on Earth does he survive this politically?

 Israel is committing war crimes and genocide on the people of Gaza. They are blowing up homes, schools, refugee shelters, hospitals, churches, and mosques to kill or make Gazans flee and then telling the media they are destroying "terrorist infrastructure" which is inane doublespeak.

Opening with a blood libel indicates that there is no point in debating the rest of your points.

The only act of genocide in this conflict was perpetrated on October 7th by Hamas.



 Tens of thousands are already dead in Gaza. Israel's massive and inept intelligence failure and Hamas's attack on Oct 7th does not justify the continued killing of innocent civilians.

Even President Biden has said that Israel has engaged in indiscriminate bombing, so one has to wonder when he will stop supplying them with bombs!

 Your "Blood Libel" nonsense accusation is a desperate and weak attack to not deal with reality and accept the truth. What Israel is doing is wrong.

 Give it a rest, even many Jewish people are increasingly speaking out against these brutal war crimes and receiving hatred and even having their identity questioned for not supporting this lunatic right-wing government of Israel.

A few hundred kids trying to piss off their parents by advocating for their own extermination are not a social movement. Regardless, they are still irrelevant. Hamas and the ensuing carefully coordinated global wave of violent Judenhass has awakened every bit of collective trauma from Jewish history. The world is now finding out what we actually meant when we said "Never Again". Pay attention.

   Your words are hollow, short sighted, and stupid. Only peace insures survival. War is what causes the greatest destruction to all people, including the Jewish people.

That sounds like a threat, to be honest.

I don't have the power to execute any threats on this issue! But Israel definitely wants this attitude to be seen as a threat to any who would escalate this conflict beyond the Israel-Hamas one it is right now, yes.

So moderate criticism of Israel is anti-Semitic?

Don't accuse me of something you know damn well I'm not.

I'm not! I wasn't talking to you here! I was responding to someone who invoked the "genocide" blood libel about Israel, which is definitely not mild criticism of Israel and is definitely antisemitism.

Really, at the core of this is that Israel simply cannot live with Hamas on its border anymore. That's non-negotiable, and that's Hamas' doing.

 You have Israeli politicians saying they want to wipe Gaza off the map(even with nukes), you can try to sling mud and name-call but facts are facts.

 Smart move by Biden to start dropping food aid, also proves the point beyond a doubt that IDF is blocking humanitarian food aid.

Biden's response to this all since October has been an unmitigated disaster. His confident proclamation this week that a truce was coming ended up as a nothingness and he's still unwilling to act like the leader of tge superpower he is. He's protecting Netanyahu while killing his reelection chances

 Netanyahu definitely wants Trump back in office.

Biden admin says it’s ‘reasonable to assess’ Israel used American weapons in ways ‘inconsistent’ with international law

Quote
The Biden administration said Friday that it is “reasonable to assess” that US weapons have been used by Israeli forces in Gaza in ways that are “inconsistent” with international humanitarian law but stopped short of officially saying Israel violated the law.

The report which was drafted by the State Department said that investigations into potential violations are ongoing but noted that the US does “not have complete information to verify” whether the US weapons “were specifically used” in alleged violations of international humanitarian law.

“Given the nature of the conflict in Gaza, with Hamas seeking to hide behind civilian populations and infrastructure and expose them to Israeli military action, as well as the lack of USG personnel on the ground in Gaza, it is difficult to assess or reach conclusive findings on individual incidents. Nevertheless, given Israel’s significant reliance on U.S.-made defense articles, it is reasonable to assess that defense articles covered under NSM-20 have been used by Israeli security forces since October 7 in instances inconsistent with its IHL obligations or with established best practices for mitigating civilian harm,” the report said.

 Even the State Department has to admit what people have already known.
