    Where Is the moral outrage over firebombing Dresden, nuking Hiroshima and Nagasaki, napalming villages in Vietnam, indiscriminate drone strikes in Afghanistan etc.?
    People have been and continue to be outraged, maybe you haven't paid attention.

    Re: how to eliminate Hamas without collateral, how about a two state solution and taking the real threats head on instead of punishing children? Or do you really think flattening Gaza and killing every single Palestinian will make Iran et al just say"welp we lost so much for that"

    Whan has war ever been humanized? At least we don't make the losers slaves anymore.
    Putin seems to have humanized it a measure. Stalin is rolling over in his grave watching this. The last time the Nazi's tried this Stalin directed any Russian soldier in the Battle of Stalingrad to perform open heart surgery on said Nazi's///on-the-spot.

    War is not the only instance for which you do this.

    Most of the Vietnam outrage was against the draft and a pointless war, not the indiscriminate killing of yellow people.
    I guess you don't remember My Lai either. As a kid I heard plenty about US atrocities, I don't agree with your take that all people cared about was the draft.

    How do you suggest eliminating Hamas without collateral damage?
    I don't

    Nice goalpost move with a strawman kicker.

    The Palestinian side has never agreed to a two state solution. They want to totally remove the Jews.

    Well, at least the Hamas faction -- which conservative Israel enjoyed before the face-eating leopard ate its face.

    Few have mentioned the deliberate starvation of 2m people, I guess that's not so easily covered by the collateral damage rationale

    Dresden was brutal. I'll give the Soviets credit for marching West door to door seeking revenge. It requires strong conviction to do that. Notice Russia isn't @ Ukraine and Israel isn't now.

    WW2 on the Eastern Front is last time we saw equal strength & conviction fighting over rooms.

    I don't think it's casting aspersions to observe that you tend to personalize things to the exclusion of topical conversation. Your subthread with CD is the obvious example here, but I've seen you do this with maybe half a dozen other posters on this board in other contexts FWIW.
    Winey is correct. Fuzzy you do this. Sidetrack onto dissecting why the individual has a specific perspective. But you stay on topic unlike our Chump whom just posts about us

    Deeper dive in the NYT today. Suitcases full of cash and a misguided containment strategy that likely assisted Hamas in the Oct 7th attack on Israel.

    “The Palestinian Authority is a burden,” he said. “Hamas is an asset.”

    This is current events and Israel has been called out repeatedly on the matter, upstream WH and I have been posting links, I'm not going to hold your hand. If you don't know about the multiple do ented cases of targeting civilians, journalists, doctors etc I'm more inclined to believe you wilfully ignore them.

    And it's not just Hamas preventing them from leaving the warzone, they didn't build the fence around gaza
    I know about civilians getting hit. I do not not know about IDF targeting them.

    One is a war crime and the other is not.

    And sure the Israeli's built a fence. Their Sunni neighbors built bigger ones.

    But hey you guys can virtue signal and think that it will make a single difference to one of those refugees. Their Sunni neighbors are not going to let them in. Hamas will keep them around their troop emplacements.

    No charge will be brought in the ICC. IDF will continue until all Hamas emplacements are eliminated and hopefully whoever is put in charge won't embezzle all the aid to the Palestinian people.

    But hey at least you guys get to feel you are better than random internet people.

    You guys just going to gloss over the reports about Hamas misrepresenting themselves to the world in the years leading up to the attack?

    The dynamic is discussed in the video I poosted earlier. Would you like time stamps? Or you guys just want to pretend that Hamas is consistent in it's actions?

    He was able to articulate it. You never did. I already responded to the argument. That is likely why you never wanted to articulate in situ.

    This was the argument before Egypt allowed aid through. As with all aid that has been going to Palestinians since Hamas has been in power: getting it to the people in need without it being embezzled is the issue.

    Ukraine & Israel

    Who had this on their bingo card. One should empathize with both sides. Ultimately we are West. Imo
