Of course you had no actual answer. Why am I not surprised?

You're delusional if you don't think that Hamas wouldn't torture and kill you for some of the activities in which you've partaken and written about in certain review categories. And you very well know that's the truth.

They'd be fucking celebrating over your corpse. How can you support them? Or is your hatred of Jews so intense that you support anybody who also hates them even though it could cost you your life?

I think that "irrational" is a much more appropriate term than "delusional". At least irrational indicates that some though and logic went into the response instead of just another insult, which is your trademark.
Delusional

I am asking, of the 22000+ killed, please show us how many were Hamas. Let us please see the names. It is a reasonable request, no? After 22000 are killed, to want to know how effective the Israeli operation has been?
frank wants 500,000 to die.

How about you? Do you think that Hamas, whom you hate, should return all the hostages and surrender unilaterally so that Israel immediately stops the assault? All of their stated goals will have been reached.

It is impossible to debate against the fact that a unilateral surrender by Hamas occurs much, much faster than having to bilaterally negotiate a ceasefire before that ceasefire can be put into effect.

Israel will not enter into ceasefire at this point, so the question is, should Hamas surrender to stop the hostilities or should they keep fighting knowing that many, many more Palestinians will die.

Firstly, I doubt PCPSR to be a reliable ...
Usual conspiracy theorist; deny any source you don't like. But it's not surprising that you are so quick to deny the voices of Palestinians as collected by a Palestinian polling agency.


I would do 2 things:

1. I would immediately end the war and instead go after Hamas leaders in targeted assassinations and air strikes.

2. I would evacuate the West Bank, and go back to the 1967 borders. I would also lift all blockades, release all illegally detained Palestinian prisoners and work to establish a sovereign state of Palestine. Of course this has to be done in stages, and I would atleast take the steps to reach that state and put forth a roadmap to realizing that end goal. And before you say Hamas or anyone else will not agree - they will. Infact, that is Hamas' demand as well, to go back to the 1967 borders - per their charter. There is no existential threat to Israel.
1. And how would you target Hamas leadership? Would you send troops into Gaza to do this? Bomb their homes? Sounds pretty much like what Israel is doing. And what was your response to Israel hitting Hamas leaders in lebanon?
2. Hamas has said they would accept a Two State peace as a TEMPORARY measure. They and 75% of Palestinians are clear that their end goal is to have a Palestinian state "from the river to the sea".
And it would be stupid for Israel to give up land without any guarantees. That's why I have always said international pressure to negotiate is the only way forward.

p.s. Olmert offered all that in 2008; a Palestinian state on all of West Bank and Gaza with 6% land swaps including a land corridor to Gaza, international oversite over the Old City and holy sites, some refugees to Israel with the rest given money to resettle in a Palestinian state, the countries they live in, or third parties like Canada (and only 10% of refuges want to live in Israel). He even offered to remove Jews from Arab neighbourhoods in East Jerusalem. Abbas walked away without even a counter-proposal and Hamas rejected the concept out of hand.

Oh so they are weakening support for Hamas, by mass murdering Palestinians? "
Absolutely. I00%

More and more Gazans are tired of the killing, suffering and oppression that Hamas has brought upon. They will lose Gazan support. The best way for Hamas to be eliminated is by an insurrection by the Palestinians of Gaza. We've already seen clips of Gazans speaking out against Hamas.

The French Revolution.
The Russian Revolution.
The Gazan Revolution. Why not?

No. They're still churning. Hamas can never win this type of war. The Israelis have artillery, tac air and tanks. Hamas has fat fucks with AK's.
...
Hamas was hoping that Hezbollah would fully attack and Iran would do more than greenlight the Houthis.

So much for Oct 7 being the excuse for the genocide of Palestinians. This is from 2021….sound familiar?

Oh look! Dan Cohen works with Max Blumenthal! Here's the wiki page!!



Dan Cohen is an American journalist and filmmaker based in Washington, D.C. He is the host of Behind the Headlines. Formerly of RT America, Cohen has contributed to Al Jazeera English, Alternet, Electronic Intifada, The Grayzone, Middle East Eye, Mondoweiss, The Nation, and Vice News. Cohen is from Phoenix, Arizona[1] and has one child.[2]

Cohen is Jewish[3] and his family were Lithuanian Jews from Lazdijai, Lithuania. His family members in Lithuania were exterminated by the Nazis during the Holocaust, and the occupation of Lithuania following Operation Barbarossa.[4]

Works
He's an alumni of Putin's favourite bullshit sheet "RT America"!

Congratulations, Klatty! You found another chunk of lying human turd!

Delusional.
That seems to be your response for every post that you disagree with. Do ever have your own facts and ideas in the form of sentences to support your position?

Your replies are always insults or videos. You never are able to compose a coherent and compelling paragraph.

And as I explained in another post, which for your benefit I won't repeat or even be more specific, your support of Hamas is irrational.

I am not sure what this graphic is supposed to prove, as it is not working for your argument that Gazans are dissatisfied with Hamas.
I'm having to explain so much for you today.

Support for Hamas is much lower in Gaza. The Palestinians there have taken the bulk of Israel's retaliation. They realize and don't like that Hamas is making them go through this hell. They know that Hamas initiated this because of Oct. 7 and they know that they are being used as pawns/human shields and they know that Hamas is stealing humanitarian aid meant for them. This weakening support in Gaza will continue until either Israel obliterates Hamas or Hamas surrenders or the Gazans get totally fed up and rise up against Hamas on their own.

I hope you learned something today. Knowledge is power.

Most of the in situ leadership will be trapped in Gaza and killed. If they're in the tunnels, the tunnels will be blown in, so there's no egress. Some will undoubtedly disguise themselves and slip out.

The hostages will be murdered by Hamas and will not be rescued.

The Hamas leadership outside Gaza will be betrayed and assassinated 1 by 1 by the Mossad. They'll still be dying now and again 10 years from now.
So you say Israel should continue bombing everywhere for 10 more years?
Or will they have "defeated Hamas" before that?

The entire enclave of Gaza has been brainwashed to support Hamas and hate Israel. Some will change horses after the Israelis stop fighting. Others will silently hate. Like all defeated peoples. It would take a whole generation - maybe 2 or 3 - to change their opinions.
So bomb them for 2 or 3 generations then?
Just continuous bombing?

Best damn question in this entire 12k post thread. No one anywhere has a decent answer. Maybe because there truly isn't one.
So how does bombing solve this?

A dumb question: -

The IDF is going to kill Hamas until there's no one left alive or outside captivity. They're about halfway there and they have time and resources to finish the work.
Which you said would take two to three generations?
And presumably it is "everyone who has ever said Hamas has a point" who must be killed?
Or just anyone who said that Israel should maybe kill less people who must be killed?
Or is it just a current list of Hamas leadership?
Who decides who is on that list?

It will look like a time when:

Hamas is eradicated to the point that they are longer physically able to fire rockets or repeat Oct. 7.
So if anyone fires a rocket ever at Israel again, Israel should continue this level of bombing?

It will be a time that Israel does not have to retaliate in self-defense
How do you know when this is reached?
And are there any proportional limits on this retaliation?

It will be a time that Gazans can live in peace with nobody stealing their humanitarian aid.
So any theft in Gaza should be met with bombing?

It will be a time that they can build their own infrastructure.
Israel should bomb all infrastructure until the Gazans can build infrastructure?

It will be a time that they can have free and fair elections for the first time in approx. 20 years.
How does bombing produce elections?

You seem to be answering "Israel will know Hamas is eradicated when it knows".
Which... fine, but you do understand why some people don't find this a useful answer, right?
