    Has Hamas killed any hostages at all? Israeli most be up to like 70-80 now, right?

    “There were shirtless men with no weapons and a surrender flag and we gunned them down in the street like animals” is a hell of an admission. “But it’s against our ROE!” Meanwhile every IDF grunt is saying “There are no rules of engagement. Any living thing in Gaza is a target.”

      Pretty sure a large majority of the settlers killed in the initial fighting in October were friendly fire too. In November israel lowered the death toll from 1400 to 1200 and admitted the was because they identified 200 Freedom fighters amongst the charred corpses.

      Hamas did nothing wrong. They broke out killed 400 soldiers and police and maybe a few settlers who resisted. They took like a thousand hostages with the intent to trade them. The IDF shelled israeli homes and their helicopters mowed down every vehicle they saw. The IDF probably killed 800 israeli hostages outside of Gaza.

        Yeah. It really sounds like the Apaches were just strafing the crowds at that rave while IDF tanks were firing HE directly in to Israeli residential buildings. Fucking wild.

    They had a white flag!

    It’s not that the IDF is shooting just anyone, that’d be inhumane; they shoot combatants and those who surrender alike.

    Three Israeli hostages mistakenly killed by the IDF had been holding a white flag, an Israeli military official has said.

    This is going to get buried so fast.
