The German government said on Sunday it was reviewing its hundreds of millions of euros of aid for Palestinians following the biggest attack on Israel in years by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas.
Development Minister Svenja Schulze said the government had always been careful to check that the money was only used for peaceful ends.
“But these attacks on Israel mark a terrible fracture,” she said. “We will now review our entire engagement for the Palestinian territories.”
Buddy you summed up my sentiments exactly. It feels like the whole fucking world is suffering from some form of amnesia. What do they expect the Palestinians to do, just accept their own extermination?
I mean you can fight back against your oppressors without massacring civilians, many of whom aren’t even Isrealis
War is never that convenient or that easy.
I think its actually pretty easy to not do super horrible things on purpose.
Damn I sure wish the circumstances of war didn’t force hamas to shoot up a festival
Damn I wish IDF didn’t have to shoot all those children to Target those Hamas terrorists
Hamas sets up military operations in a civilian building by force - the civilians have no say in this and get killed if they protest Hamas then uses that building to launch rockets, store ammunition, communication stations How the fuck should Israel proceed to neutralize those sites? Because what they do is:
“Roof knocking”: Hitting the building’s roof with a small explosive to announce that it will fall in 15 minutes (see video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teevWpXlRZY example from yesterday) Automatic SMS and phone calls impacted areas warning and urging to evacuate Precision strikes that make the building fall vertically with minimal damage to the areas As a result, civilians (and potentially military personnel) are given a chance to evacuate while ammunition stashes, rocket launching stations etc stay in the building and are destroyed.
To be honest, I’m shocked those protocols are still used after Hamas’s attack. I would absolutely not be surprised of these measures stopped.
The anti-Israel don’t care that Israel is bending over backwards to minimize human suffering while fighting a decades long war against people who are deliberately trying to kill their children.
Remember how upset they are when Israel does something 100 percent defensive, like build a security fence to keep out an endless stream of suicide bombers?
This isn’t good-faith criticism.
These people hate Israel for this that they works be applauding other countries for. And we all know why

What a convenient and easy answer in defence of their actions. “It was just out of their hands”.
“they couldn’t be helped, the poor sods”
I am not sure I understand the logic behind fighting a war of extermination when the other side is stronger and can actually exterminate you
The logic is you hide within the general population and count on the other side to be “more civilized”. Or you’re enough of a sociopath to want the response to hit the general population to radicalize people just trying to live their lives

I can’t help but to think about the mental gymnastics required to support Ukraine while screaming about how Palastine is actually evil and needs to be stopped. Do they honestly think Ukraine hasn’t killed Russian civilians during the war? War is messy and when your options are to fight or face annihilation the answer is always the same, and it’s always messy.
Point me to where Ukrainian soldiers passed the border and shot up a festival full of civilians
