I’m sure Israel will thoroughly investigate this crime and punish whoever took the video.

Gotta love that you get downvoted for saying that. Like what? Better not investigate?

It’s not uncommon to get downvotes for saying a fact someone doesn’t want to hear. And, no matter the fact, someone doesn’t want to hear it.

Or, he could simply be under Brigade from some unpopular opinion. I’m sure we all get that.

I am not going to say which war this was but I have heard veterans tell stories of strapping the enemy soldier to their vehicle and driving slowly across a suspected mined area, usually the poor soul will quickly identify all the hidden explosive zones. Not saying this is what’s happening, just reminded me of the story. Fucking wars

Has any Palestinian strapped any Israelis to jeeps?

“The conduct of the forces in the video of the incident does not conform to the values of the IDF. The incident will be investigated and dealt with accordingly.”

aka IDF will do nothing

I don’t think any Palestinians HAVE jeeps. If we want to find out, we can check with the country in control of all electricity, water, and food into the area: they’d have written ‘jeep’ down somewhere.

Man what a terrible choice of words.

By your standards I could provide a counter argument like: Has any Israeli launched an unprovoked attack on Palestinians and kidnapped 300 of them?

And then I sit on my biased moral throne and feel the meaningless superiority of my argument

Reality is not black and white. Both sides are bad

Hamas launched a horrible slaughter of civilians. they knew it would have consequences. The IDF would obviously retaliate but they are using too much force and causing extreme suffering

This war should stop as soon as possible. There is nothing to gain in prolonging this conflict

Both sides are bad yada yada yada but only one side is a colonial ethnostate that is committing genocide. Let us not forget.

As another comment noted. If Hamas had more firepower they would use more firepower.

They are not morally Superior to Israel.

Hamas started a conflict with an obviously more powerful military. They knew there would be consequences but they still chose violence over diplomacy. Obviously diplomacy in the middle east is terrible but I would never think that attacking civilians is a viable alternative to diplomacy.

And the only reason Hamas doesn’t do what IDF does is because they are incapable of doing it not because of any moral superiority

Setting aside the naivety of calling October 7th unprovoked, uh… Yes?

The history of Palestine is super messy. All sides have committed terrible acts to the other, coming back hundreds of years. Each side can always look at recent history and claim X has provoked Y or Y has caused a disaster on X.

You can claim this was a provoked attack. I for once can hardly justify an attack on civilians. You can argue, Israel has done worse in the past, and while each side is biased, perhaps you’d be right.

My point is. This is an endless discussion

Both sides are bad. IMO the best outcome at the moment is to stop the conflict as soon as possible

Not every Hamas victim does either, doesn’t change the fact that Hamas did exactly what IDF does here
