      Trump/Harris debate is September 10th and the MTV music awards moved to 9/11 as not to complete with the debate.

      Everyone who gives weapons to Israel (or money to buy weapons) did this. I finally got angry enough to write Biden a letter, but who knows if he actually read it or not (probably not, but I did get a reply). It didn’t seem to help much. All the protests aren’t helping much. What can the people do to stop the govenment’s support of Israel?

        Nothing except convince another ME nation to convincingly offer allying with the US so they don’t need Israel anymore.

        In the meantime, efforts to thwart or protest the Harris campaign work against your ends and reduce their willingness to work with you if they do win. It sucks but that’s your reality for now until January.

    Here, I fixed the title for you: “Hamas still refuses to release hostages taken in unprovoked October 7 attack despite suffering of Gaza civilian population”

      Here’s another title for you, “Israel forcefully exceeded the land given to them by UN from day 1 and has been killing children amd committing war crimes for 75 years.”

      Here’s another one, “Israel has been forcefully occupying West Bank and other land area that are legally Palestine’s from 1948 the same year Israel was created”.

        All of that is factually incorrect, the Palestinians never agreed to a state, so legally it was never theirs.

        And all the surrounding Arab countries threw a tantrum fit as soon as Israel was created, tried to destroy it, and are now crying for losing the war they started.

        Get your facts straight.

      So if a small group from a certain population does something bad then everyone of that population, including kids, deserves to get sick and starve to death? Because if that’s the case, i have bad news for you about every single human population in history :D By your logic, we should start killing all kids. It’s totally justifiable, right?

      Or did you mean to say if they’re Arab then it makes it justifiable? Because brown people aren’t real people?

        So, if a small group of terrorists decides to operate out of a civilian population to attack a sovereign nation they automatically get immunity for their action and get a free “get out of jail” card? By your logic everytime some niche group decides they don’t get what they want (however absurd their demands are), all they have to do is arm themselves and operate from within a civilian population to automatically get support for their efforts, right?

        Arab people aren’t real people? Tell that to the 20% Arab civilans in Israel. You obviously know shit about this conflict.

      The only one killing hostages, bombing water utilities, bombing schools, invading hospitals, and constantly changing the deal for peace is Israel.

            There are humanitarian zones for the civilians with more than enough water.

            The situation there is shitty, but to the blame of all the suffering on Israel alone is just plain wrong.

              Did you read the article? Among many other points:

              Around 70% of all water and sanitation facilities in Gaza have been destroyed or damaged, the WASH Cluster, a United Nations-led group that coordinates humanitarian efforts for water, sanitation and hygiene, said on July 24, citing satellite analysis from the UN Satellite Centre.

              And look at the headline. If there was “more than enough” generally, why would anyone do that?

              The situation there is shitty, but to the blame of all the suffering on Israel alone is just plain wrong.

              I didn’t do that. It’s just mainly their fault

      and that completely justifies any and all warcrimes against civilians? Even if they were doing the same to the other side it still wouldnt justify this.

        That justifies war, yes.

        War sucks and people get killed. Now grow up.

          So killing and torturing civilians is ok in your book no matter what? Because that was what i have issue with in this matter.

              I said: “and that completely justifies any and all warcrimes against civilians?” and your response was: “That justifies war, yes. War sucks and people get killed. Now grow up.”

              So did you mean that warcrimes are inherently part of war and something that should just be accepted or what did you mean? Or did you mean it just shouldnt be discussed or be outraged about? Without further information there is very little to go on to get any other conclusions that are not in the line of what i asked.
