    They operate part of Gaza. Also no, there are hundreds of third party groups that organize aid, the fact Israel calls them all Hamas does not make it true.

    Those numbers come from third party groups like the UN. https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties

    Hamas doesn’t force anything, Israel refusing to think of humanity and instead of ground assault just bomb the whole place off the face of earth. if I hold a gun to a child to force a bank robber to give up am I the bad person or are we both shitty examples of humanity?

    Bro, settlers spit from their raised walkways onto Palestinians literally every day. Small slights matter and I’m pretty sure they roof knocked a building on the 19th anyway.

      Who operates the rest of it then?

      This website is promising but there are no “over 3000 children over a month” figures here.

      Hamas doesn’t force anything

      When you attack a developed country with an army from a specific location, you are asking to bomb this location as a response. Don’t know if it’s s surprise to anyone, but it just works like that. You wouldn’t suppose it would mean “please don’t bomb this location” instead?

      if I hold a gun to a child to force a bank robber to give up am I the bad person or are we both shitty examples of humanity?

      If before doing so you shoot that robber’s friends and pretend it never happened, you are worse than those robbers.

      But really, this analogy is beautiful. I now know the proper solution to all our problems, and with no bloodshed. Here is what Hamas should say: “We are martyrs and you are oppressors. We refuse to live under oppression. We mined every single house and every single Palestinian. If you don’t reconsider we will detonate it all at once.”

      Bro, settlers spit from their raised walkways onto Palestinians literally every day.

      What walkways? As if anyone has the time to spit at all anywhere, damn.

      Small slights matter and I’m pretty sure they roof knocked a building on the 19th anyway.

      What building? Who? I’m not getting it. “It doesn’t matter that Israel didn’t bombed a hospital because at the same day they bombed another building anyway”?
