No, I said that the number wasn't zero. The IDF commits war crimes by bombing hospitals, schools, aid stations etc, and the use that excuse because people like you believe every word of it bc you are a Zionist. Zionist are the new Nazis, all they want to do is kill people they deem subhuman. I'll say this, even if 100% of the children murdered by the IDF were human shields, 100% of the blame is still on the IDF. 100%, you know why? Bc they dropped a bomb on ****ing child. Figure out another strategy or more importantly end the nearly century long occupation of land that doesnt belong to them them. Land that was stolen for them by the British.
Im tired of arguing this with you. I thought I could have a better conversation with on this but I was wrong. You support genocide and occupation, no one wants to call it that at the time bc it goes against what they think is good. So you lie to yourself and blame it on human shields. Which again, if 100% of the hospitals, schools, libraries, and ****ING CHILDREN that have been directly bombed by the IDF were being used as human shields, it is still the IDFs fault and you still are ok with bombing children. I hope you find your humanity one day bc you currently support murdering children.
Good day
So a Zionist is someone who believes that the Jewish people should be able to have their own state and live in freedom and security. Comparing that to the nazis is disgusting on every single level. I hate throwing this out there, but you sir are an extreme bigot. Not because of this post, but because of all of your posts. Your thought that the "Jewish Question" is not antisemitic. The question that a bunch of white European Christians came up with "what do we do about this damn Jewish problem?" Somehow is ok and not antisemitic? That is like saying a bunch of white people here in the US saying "What do we do about the damn Black population?".. That is RACIST no matter how you want to slice it.
A solution to the Jewish Question and all the antisemitism happening in Europe was ZIONISM. SECURITY AND FREEDOM for the Jewish people. Yes comparing that to nazism is antisemitic. And your biggest issue is you think you have the moral high ground and are not a bigot. The moral high ground coming from someone who wished evil upon someones family (which could very well include the same innocent children you speak of) because they disagreed with you politically on how to handle illegal immigrants in the country? You are the standard for morality? REALLY?
You also think you are so intelligent as a poster. You go after other posters with your "gotcha" questions and posts all the time. And you ALWAYS are wrong about it. Like trying to get Zinger with the Jewish Question. And then you throw in "it wasn't antisemitic." True genius you are. Or when you were responding to someone about antisemitism and you tried to act all superior with your high intellect "Palestinians are Semites too" even though Antisemitism is strictly prejudice and discrimination against JEWISH people.
And now here you go again, you have NO IDEA what Zionism is. You have NO IDEA what "international law" and "War crimes" is. Once a school or a hospital or anything else is used by enemy combatants (other than obviously a combatant being treated at a hospital) it becomes a legit target. So then the onus goes on the enemy for using it as a weapons storage or as a base etc.
You also have NO idea what my thoughts are on this.
Unlike you, I do not think I am better than any group. I do not think I am better than any religion or race or nationality or political party. I have family and friend that I love to death that are Democrats and Republicans. Black and White and Brown. Christian, Jewish, Hindu and Muslim. Gay or straight. I do not look at ANYONE as beneath me, til they show themselves as such. I think every single loss of innocent life in Gaza is absolutely awful. I think all the loss of life on 10/7 was awful. I think the rapes and murders that hamas committed was atrocious. I think the position that Israel is in is absolutely abhorrent. The position being "we can allow our citizens and children to be slaughtered, or go after hamas and unfortunately kill innocents there as well." See, you do not comprehend what is going on, because you sit in your comfortable couch here in the US with ZERO understanding (despite your high intelligence over the common folk on this board) of the situation over there. You do not understand what it is like to have rockets blasted at you. You do not understand what it is like to go into a pizza joint or on a bus and have the risk of it blowing up cause a sucide bomber is there. You do not know what it is like to have a family member killed by a terrorist or raped by a terrorist (and UNLIKE you, I truly hope you never ever ever know that feeling). How many times have the evil Zionists offered to live in peace with 2 soverign nations? Every single time rejected because they REFUSE peace with the Jewish people. They REFUSE to recognize Israel. As recently as 2008. That doesn't mean every single Arab citizen of Gaza and the WB are extremists, but their leaders - Arafat, Hamas, Abbas(to an extent)- are extremists who would rather see the death and destruction of Israel than peace and their own soveriegn state. My hope, my true hope, is that Israel does enough damage to the extremists in Gaza and FINALLY they will be able to come to the table and have an actual peace. The peace that ISRAEL has desired (and I am sure many Gazans and WB Arabs too) for 75+ years now.
Nearly 25% of the State of Israel is made up of Palestinian Arabs. They have the SAME RIGHTS as everyone else. ALL citizens have equal rights. Jewish, Christian, Muslim etc. All have 1000% equal rights in Israel. All have seats the Knesset. Sounds just like nazi Germany to me!
Look up Ahmad Abu Maria while you are at it. See how awful the Israeli's are to Palsestinians who seek asylum. And how the Israeli's, not the Palistinians, treated him how nazi Germany would have
"Land that was stolen for them by the British" Once again, you show your complete ignorance and stupidty. You have no clue what the hell you are talking about. I am not even going to get into anything Biblical, but you clearly do not understand that before Israel became an official state, Jewish people and Jewish organizations BOUGHT THE LAND FROM THE ARABS. Learn WTF you are talking about before you say your dumb shit. Jewish people LEGALLY owned the land, the British and UN came up with an agreement to grant a Jewish and Arab state. Many Arabs (not all) not only said no, but they VACATED their land and joined the surrounding Arab nations to attack and destroy the new Jewish State. They lost. And because of the war they waged on Israel, they lost land too. The Arabs that did not choose to destroy, kept their land. (Not even goint to get into the land being stolen from the Jewish people by the Babylonions and Romans and Ottomans). And this happened after the Holocaust (you know that mass designed slauther of 6m innocent Jewish people in Europe that you are comparing to 50k Gazan's dying (and that is the numbers that a terrorist organizatio is saying) because because no matter how you slice it Israel is responding to terrorist attacks and the slaughter of its innocent people and rape of its innocent people and kidnapping of its innocent people (which you also show your sympathy by commenting on the awful brutality of that). Other than Jewish people, targeted groups in the Holocaust were gays, Gypsies, handicapped, etc etc. Try being Arab in Israel? Full rights and citizenship... Try being Jewish in Gaza? Death... Try being gay in Gaza? Death... But the Zionists are the nazis!!! Again, in case your reading comprehension skills are lacking, Zionism is the belief that the Jewish people should have their own homeland and being able to have freedom and security... So being against Jewish people being safe and secure makes you a what.... Now that you know Antisemitism is only hatred and prejudice agains the Jewish people and does not include Arabs, I think you can help to answer that.
And just to clarify, I'm 100000% sure I have done this on the board before, but will do it again. I HOPE to one day see an actual 2 state solution. I am extremely skeptical, but I hope it happens. A 2 state will only happen if Israel believes that it is secure from terrorism. That would mean peace and security for both Israel and the citizens of Gaza and the WB. I hope that the children of Gaza do NOT have to suffer under an oppressive terrorist govt like hamas. And I hope Netanyahu's reign of power in Israel is soon over.
