    it’s unbelievably frustrating because Israel and the IDF could have tried being a hell of a lot more surgical about the whole thing, and at least tried to avoid becoming irreversibly hated by all Palestinians as well as saving more lives… but it’s becoming apparent that saving lives (hostages or civilians) was never really part of the plan.

    The plan was lebensraum.

      We can say that both side don’t care about each other. It’s just that one side has all the weapon.

      News just came out that the IDF killed 3 Israeli hostages. They killed 3 unarmed hostages that were Jewish… how can we expect them to care about anyone else?

      Hint: they don’t

        I’m certain that they didn’t mean to kill the three Jewish hostages. However, the fact that they went in guns blazing without a care to whether or not the people they were shooting were innocent or not… well, that’s sadly very telling

          Exactly. I wouldn’t feel safe around the IDF regardless of what my status would be.
