So why is Israel killing Palestinian children?

-Imp

So what does that mean?

Children are "brilliant and awe-inspiring beings" but they can be killed if they are inconveniently located? If they stand in the way of getting rid of Hamas?

Something else?

The jewish and palestinian childrens need to recognize their mutual interests, renounce their national identities and organize themselves as a singular class to fight against the IDF and Hamas. This is the only way to stop their senseless murder.

Peace, Land and Bread

It isn't. Hamas is (allegedly, if you believe all the ridiculous pallywood videos being churned out). And I think you mean Gazan children.

And now what about the Houthi youthi? What if they start dyin becuz the US is bombin em becuz the Houthis are bombin the IDF becuz the IDF is bombin the Gaza childrens? There'll be kids dyin everywhere for christ sakes!

As if you give a rat's arse about ANY children, unless it's irritation at the fact that there will be fewer potential victims for you to molest.

As if anyone is just going to click on some random link that a loony forum member has posted

And yes, children die all the time--that's inevitable. But occasionally an event is so extreme, sadistic, premeditated and abhorrent, so diabolically evil, that it shakes humankind to the core and becomes a benchmark for what it means to be 'human'. Why is Vlad the Impaler remembered now, after all these centuries? Why is Hitler reviled as the personification of evil? These humans symbolically represent the absolute lowest that humanity can go. And be honest-- that's pretty ****ing low.

Actually your homeboy Vlad is three quarters myth, and Hitler was relatively recent.

The truth is, no matter how horrible u are (if u are), you and whatever u did will eventually be forgotten about after enough time passes. And worse, sometimes guys who are revered as righteous heroes for hundreds or thousands of years were actually total douchbags. Moses is a prime example. Not even an old battle axe like u would have him over for dinner.

What, too 'old' for you? Over 12? I'm shattered. Imagine being too old to attract someone as desirable as you think you are

ps. I guess you missed the point. How surprising

Netanyahu has got to go or else become realistic, if Israel wants any form of long-lasting peace. His latest proposal for post-10/7-invasion arrangements is simply kicking the can further down the road and worse, it's just going to incite Gazans.

The Israelis need to kick him out of office for their own good.

THe IDF is currently shooting starving people queueing up for food aid in North Gaza.
Meanwhile some Democrats are refusing to vote for Biden in the Primaries.
US Democrats look like they are the only hope for Palestinians.
