"…there came a point, a few weeks ago, when I realized, the government isn’t going to end the war, isn’t bringing the hostages back, and isn’t helping the evacuees.”

" Increasingly, Netanyahu’s many opponents are questioning his handling of the war. Others are questioning the prime minister’s motives, suggesting his political interest lies in the continuation of the fighting, which inevitably delays his political demise. Netanyahu is currently under trial on various charges of corruption."

    The fact is we dont have video. Hell, its unclear if it was IDF that did the killing, and if they did, what circumstances. Wouldnt be the first time we got lied to about who did what amd how.

      So if you know there’s a chance we’re being lied to, do you concede there’s a chance you’re on the wrong side of it?

        Yes, I concede I might be wrong. Do you concede that we know that Hamas commits warcrimes?

          Yes, I’ve never once tried to justify the actions of Hamas.

          I just don’t like that innocent civilians are being targeted by either side, or that Netanyahu is using Hamas’ attacks from 8 months ago to justify the continued killing of innocents.

          But that type of nuanced discourse doesn’t seem to be welcome here.

            You seem to focus a hell of a lot on the IDF, and not the guys who attacked first, and continued attacking. Hell, you act like Oct 7th were the only attacks.

              I’d like to focus on all the wrongdoings but you’re picking up on a focus that’s directly related to sentiment here in this community.

              If it sounds like I’m focusing more on IDF than Hamas, it’s because the conservative viewpoint is so strongly focused on the inverse. I’m simply here reminding y’all that IDF isn’t exactly worth our support either.

              I don’t really care how internet anons think I’m acting, honestly.
