This whole thing is a nightmare. What is anyone’s end goal here?
Hamas seemingly intended to draw Israel into a war. They hide behind citizens. But when Israel makes it crystal clear they will shred an arbitrary amount of citizens to get to Hamas --once that’s known and understood-- isn’t Hamas equally to blame for their deaths. They could have: 1 not escalated, 2 fight openly in uniform instead of cowardly hiding behind citizens.
Tactically, what they are doing makes sense if the goal is to win at a war, but to say so admits they were the first to put the Gaza civilians in danger by starting such a war.
Israel is the only party that can win a war. There can be so much more suffering if it carries on.
I also suspect this whole thing is either orchestrated or exasperated to try to draw Iran in, because Israel and the west would love an excuse to wipe Iran off the map before they get nukes.
So let me hear your opinions, how does this whole thing end? And for the sake of conversation let’s assume cease-fire is out, because I don’t pragmatically see that happening.
Imagine going to New York, getting a little too drunk and end up shacked up with someone for the weekend, then getting blown up on the fucking news.
Well, you don’t have to. If you want to just save enough to buy some land you could work for just a few years then homestead from there.
