2023 Israel-Palestine Armed Conflict

[pistolwhipped]

Seeing scumbags as Owen Jones crying and going "they killed 200 Palestinians" while not mention that they died because hamas put the fucking hostages among civilans (and he never answer how many of those who died were hamas members or civilans... wonder why)

Not only did they put them among the civilians, but they also crawled out of buildings and alleyways to shoot at the IDF with RPGs and gunfire once they realized what was happening. Wow it's almost as if civilians were caught in the crossfire. I wonder if there was anything that could have been done to avoid that.....

Strange how they suddenly are hyperfixating on the type of truck the IDF guys rolled in with, when they were quite literally stashing hostages in a busy market area of a literal refugee camp, among civilians.

It's worth noting that Nuseirat "refugee camp," much like Jabalia and Bureij "refugee camps" are actual cities, not refugee camps. There are no tent cities there. As far as I'm aware, the only actual refugee tent city is in the Rafah area right now.

"Refugee camp" has been made part of these city names and is a misnomer used to keep useful idiots feeling sympathetic. Nuseirat Refugee Camp has existed since 1948. Why are the grandchildren of 1948 refugees, who were born and raised in concrete apartments in these cities, still said to be living in refugee camps? Here in America we just call that the hood. Like at this point just call them the Gaza Projects

Hilarious that this Khalissee account is an obese Pakistani hiding behind a picture of a blonde white woman.

Lmaooo ain't no way. How do you know this??

I should’ve known it would be one fuckin Pali in one fuckin bullshit report from the Hamas-run UNRWA.

Personally I am reluctant to believe anything that comes from a refugee agency that has failed to do its literal only job and resettle a single refugee since its establishment 75 years ago.

(Anyone know if there’s truth to that last one’s claim that Grandpa Goatfucker was killed in front of the grandkids? If so, they’re even bigger pieces of shit for harboring a hostage in a home with little kids in it when they know damn well it’ll make the house a target.)

Hamas reported that and actually shot themselves in the adidas sandal-clad feet with this one. They immediately announced the sad but glorious martyrdom of the Very Innocent Journalist and Innocent Doctor being shot in front of their grandchildren inside their apartment before Israel announced that they were the hostage captors. Not sure if the grandchildren thing is real or embellished but they did accidentally corroborate Israel's claim.

"Grandpa, who's this strange crying lady handcuffed to the wall in our apartment?"
"Well little Muhammed the 7th, this is our new yahood sabiyya. Mashallah we stole her from the Zionist Entity. She will be staying here indefinitely while her government negotiates her release. Please don't give her any food."
"Oh okay grandpa, that is totally normal. I love our beautiful culture. Allahu Akbar"

Sweden no!
Also, why is it called "the swedish village"?
Don't tell me it was founded by the goverment of Sweden.

Yes:

Al Qarya as Suwaydiya was founded in 1965 with Swedish and international troops' assistance

Bibi suggested the pier to Biden. Bibi said the pier could be used to remove the Gazans. So it's not some wild speculation

the US-built pier

I’m not sure if I agree on his opening thesis, since it’s hard to beat the shambolic Afghanistan pull-out for delusional incompetence and retardation. But I co-sign the rest.

Lebanese media are reporting Israeli airstrikes in the Hermel District of northeastern Lebanon, in what appears to be a response to numerous Hezbollah attacks on northern Israel over the past day, and the terror group downing an IDF drone.

It also potentially marks the deepest IDF strike in Lebanon amid the war, as Hermel is some 130 kilometers (80 miles) from the Israeli border.

No further details are immediately available.

The one thing I disagree with him on is the thesis and the last point.

Like, what does the US military lose by making the pier? It's the taxpayers who lose because our money is put into the damn pier.

 

[tiffanytwisted]

So this New York Times article claims that Hamas currently has standing orders to immediately kill hostages if they suspect an incoming rescue mission (which is a given. This is a death cult. They don’t care if they’re killed, as long as they get to murder the Jews first.):

Hamas leaders have also given standing orders to its fighters holding hostages that if they think Israeli forces are coming, the first thing they should do is shoot the captives.

Meanwhile, the geniuses over at BBC are legitimately asking why the IDF didn’t warn the Palestinians about their plans:

How are these people so fucking retarded? Seriously. It’s astounding.

appear incompetent and retarded

same as afghanistan: yes the blame for the fucked up retreat is ultimately on the politicians, but the military still ends up looking dumb as shit when they are airlifting shit out of a collapsing city in a massive panic.

Nothing, it's practice for them.

We've already had a couple casualties, no deaths but an accident produced a couple injuries, one soldier injured seriously.

At the end of the day, even though it was incompetently done, it was the right move to withdraw. There's a reason the intelligence community went into it kicking and screaming because they didn't want to lose their playground/source of extralegal revenue.
The pier was a nonsensical solution to a nonexistent problem, done both expensively and incompetently, with transparently political motivation that managed to piss off everyone involved in the process and most people who really care about this war domestically.

injuries on-duty are retardedly common in the military, to be fair.

I don't know where I first read it, but a quick google

The plan for a maritime route to Gaza via Cyprus to provide humanitarian assistance for Palestinians was initiated by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in collaboration with US President Joe Biden

https://www.jpost.com/international/article-791239

speaking at a private meeting of the Knessett's Foreign Affairs and Security Committee, Netanyahu suggested the port could also facilitate the removal of Palestinians from Gaza.

Google is trash, and any search for information on this conflict is stuffed with bullshit.

The concept for the Gaza Seaport (pier) was mooted as far back as the British Mandate. But the Oslo II Agreement (1995) is where it started coming to fruition. Palestinians wanted it for economic and autonomic reasons and the goal was formally recognized as part of the “peace process.” The symbolism was as important as its intended practical uses.

the fist bump gets me every time lmao. They're pulling off an extremely risky mission that resulted in the death of their commander, but the soldier takes that brief second to calm down the guy and be like "yeah bro we're getting you out of here buddy." Bros being bros

 

[John Andrews Stan]

Bros being bros

I’m sure there are Hamas supporters claiming the fist-bump was a war crime. These are the people too fucking retarded to understand that “war crimes” are whatever people in power say they are. They must really love the taste of leather.
