the Palestinians have been attacking Israel with missiles for the last few days (no reports on the msm) and Israel in return is hitting Hamas with great precision…
Israel’s foreign minister Ashkenazi thanked Blinken for US support for Israel’s right to defend itself - although that support stops with “the squad” in congress
While Israel tries to minimize human toll - which is obviously not easy to do since Hamas plants rocket launchers in civilian areas, Hamas shoots their rockets indiscriminately.
Btw, a few dead Palestinian civilians from Hamas rockets that fell short and landed inside their own territory.
I have a hunch that if we supported the Palestinains with billions of military support every year their attacks would get a lot more precise and cut way down on civilian casualties.
Again, because Hamas places their military equipment in the middle of civilian areas. For those suggesting that Israel intends to murder civilians, couldn’t they do so much more efficiently without using precision equipment by essentially just carpet bombing all of Gaza ? Actually I’d bet that’s what any other country would do if they had to endure rocket fire.
I don’t even understand how this is contentious. Hamas has never denied it.
Not only does Israel go to extreme measures to minimize civilian casualties but they treat injured Palestinians in their own hospitals. Compare that with indiscriminate terrorism from Hamas/Islamic Jihad.
