Any estimate of how many of those were Hamas?

There haven’t been any settlers in Gaza since 2005, what are you talking about? You mean the West Bank?

There’s literally a response just below yours, but of course taking the time to make sure you’re actually right is never a strong point for you people.

I personally find it very funny that the pro-Palestinian go-to is that none of the offers Israel made for a 2 state solution were ‘realistic’ or ‘serious’ or ‘good faith’. No one doubts that there were offers. Tell me, in what other scenario in all of human history do the losers of a war (that they started) get to dictate the terms of their surrender?

What’s the ethnic makeup of Israel? What’s the ethnic makeup of Palestine? Which one is closer to the definition of an ethno state? Do words not mean anything to you?

You would roll up to a music festival and murder civilians?

This may be tough to understand but there’s a ton of still completely-intact, dense urban environment in between the border and the school in your scenario. So on your way to the school, you can be ambushed.

Or hey, maybe thinking strategically even a little bit, maybe the school, or the road, or any of the surroundings are booby-trapped! Maybe they’ve planted IEDs or mines on the path there!

It’s very far fetched, I know. Humans haven’t been waging war for forever, there isn’t a giant history to pull from.

“The terrorists are using schools as shields though!”

“Oh damn that’s a genius strategy. Better just give up every military advantage I have and send in my soldiers to be ambushed.”

I don’t know if you noticed but it’s been more than 24 hours since they said that and they’re still letting them evacuate. Time to retire that talking point.

You know why they aren’t doing apartheid?

Cause they already fucking did it.

Starting with the Farhud in June of 1941, picking up speed after 1948 and ending in 1952, the Arab nations dispossessed and expelled more than 850,000 Jews living in their countries, leaving them penniless and homeless.

A bit difficult to practice apartheid when you’ve just kicked out the other groups entirely. The South Africans wouldn’t have had much of an apartheid state if they just rounded up and expelled their entire black population.

Perhaps you’ve learned something today.

You must hate the entire Middle East, no? Saudi, Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Azerbaijan, Yemen - I bet you’re full of vitriol that they’re not more diverse. I bet I can go to any of those places and find >25% minorities, right?
