Just going to say, this is war, decency and morals will get you killed. I have a lot of friends in the service, some officers, and I hate to say it,
but if it's a choice between dropping a bomb from a plane, or sending your men into an ambush in a small enclosed urban area that the enemy has lived
in all their lives... 110% of the time there will be a giant ball of iron falling from the sky, and i can't say that i would make that call any
differently.
I would rather be honorable towards the men, women and children not really having part of this war, they wanted out to seek refuge, they were denied
because of the affiliations of Hamas being acquired by the civilian population, if the tech that we have shared with the Israeli's is that
"Stone-aged" then we should at least provide the Intel of these groups we have in our government to "Properly" deal with the carnage at hand.
Killing the Hamas insurgence is fine, but bombing the people of no threat is "Cowardly" we, and I am sure Israel, has the same kind of tech we use
in our military, it's a blood bath, and that is all there is to it. And yes, I would fire at some one that is firing upon me, the only thing is that
I would center my attention to the individuals, not the entire civilian population,
What makes the lives of the "innocent" any more valuable than that of the lives of the men and women that risk theirs every day for their
country?
They aren't carrying guns and missiles, they are being put into a situation that is not what they wanted for their families or personal lives. The
military are "Willingly" joined associates, they signed up for possible conflicts and death, civilians just want to live at a peaceful state, be
left alone, and only want what the Israeli government had taken away in the 60's.
Israeli's downfall will be there actions, the Sunni-Arabs and the like are fortifying as we speak, if it does not come to an end soon, Israel will be
inundated with the wrath of deservedly consequence.
The places being hit with bombs, are places from which Israel has recieved hostile fire. Are you truly expecting one of the best trained, best
equipped militaries in the world to tolerate pot-shots being taken at their people day in day out?
Like I said above, "No gun, no threat." Their military forces have freaking eye's, let them use them, it is the over all hatred that drives the
Israeli government,not to mention the fact that they want ot keep the land they so wrongfully acquired as "Just theirs" belief. It can be shared,
peacefully, but the Israeli's don't want the Palestinians to even exist.
The leader of Iran was just on television this morning, the # will hit the fan, and the table will be set to a more balanced military situation,
Israel will fall, they are not as strong or have the numbers of eh Arab nations, and they are all up in arms over these atrocities. The Iranian
President was correct in his statement, for me being a US citizen, and having sides with the Iranian ideologies, it says worlds of true realities of
these events being nothing short of "Genocidal , Ethnic Cleansing , Sociopath's" acts by Israel.
This isn't eradication, it's retaliation. And who's word is it anyways that these people being killed are civilians? Hamas is a militia,
not a military, it's an entire fighting force made up of "Civilians". I wouldn't doubt at all that the number given for civilians killed is a
drastically inflated one.
You tell me how men, women and children , that are "Unarmed" and being shot, bombed and positioned to places of so called "Safe Zones" with the
trust of possible refuge, then only getting "Annihilated" twenty four hours later doesn't reflect "Irradicaton" process?
