I don’t need the exact numbers to know how bad the situation is. I have a couple of questions for you:
Do you agree that the civilian casualties on the Palestinian side far exceed those on the Israeli part?
Do you agree that a large chunk of the population in Gaza is displaced and currently living in makeshift tents?
Do you agree that there is an ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza?
Do you agree that there is increased violence and imposed restrictions in the West bank by the IDF, and that far right settlers are persecuting Palestinians and killing them.
Weren’t there members of the Israeli parliament calling for nuking Gaza, to do the same in the West Bank, etc?
What about illegal settlements, land grab, numerous human rights violations, etc.
I also want Hamas gone, but don’t think this is the way.
Yes, there is all that. As I said, I think Netanyahu and his bunch belong in jail, not in power.
But even if this guy is out of the way, here’s a few more questions to consider:
Do you agree that after Oct 7th, Israels strategy of building a wall and an “iron dome” must be considered totally failed?
Do you agree that the Hamas can not be talked with?
Do you agree that in addition to the Hamas, Israel is surrounded by militant groups that want to erase the state from the map?
Do you agree that in the past no palestinean negotiator honestly considered a 2-state-solution?
What are, positively speaking, Israels options? What should a moderate follower of Netanyahu do to achieve some sort of piece? I’m lost here. Do you have any ideas other than saying “not this way”?
