  • To be fair, Hamas CAN release the remaining 50 hostages at any fucking time as well. I think it’s gets forgotten that they are still holding on to Israeli citizens after nearly 2 years. I spent my highschool years living in Israel and then (90’s) Hamas were blowing up busses and vest bombing malls.

    I’m not saying that I agree with what is absolutely turning into a genocide, but the situation is more complicated that you think. Hamas has been operating freely as a terrorist organization for over 30 years. They have killed thousands of Israeli citizens. The gazans, and Hamas specifically, are being used by Iran as a cheap proxy war. The intention here was to provoke an overreaction from Israel to turn public opinion against them. Netanyahu took the bait.

    Israel is absolutely going too far in its response, but imagine if people from New Jersey spent 30 years crossing state lines just to kill and terrorize people from another state. Imagine new Jersey openly calling for the death of American citizens and forming militias with child soldiers to brainwash them into su*cide attacks. Then the governor coordinated with China to take hundreds of hostages from new York that they refuse to release. Would you want our military to just stop putting pressure on the new Jersey government to release the hostages because their people are dying?
