Title: Israel deliberately targeting civilians?
Post by freediver on May 29th, 2024 at 12:30pm
This claim - that Israel is deliberately targeting women and children - has become something of a mindless chant from our racists here lately. As far as I can tell, not a single piece of evidence has been presented to support the claim. It appears to follow 'logically' from the fact that they are Jewish, every time a civilian gets killed in the war - a war which Hamas is deliberately dragging into the most heavily populated areas of Gaza.

This is happening in at least a dozen threads. The people doing the chanting are:

LTYC
Aussie
John Smith
Greg
buzzanddidj

There are plenty of other fairly absurd conspiracy theories also getting around. It seems that as soon as Jews are involved, a surprising number of people are gullible enough to believe anything they read on the internet. Some examples:

Thanks for the acknowledgment of my position.

Israeli Jews are committing mass murder and genocide against children and women of Palestine.

Israeli Jews don't want to fight Hamas freedom fighters because they shoot back at Israeli Jews.

Israeli Jews are deliberately murdering children and women.

Would you buy a used war from any of those people?  I still utterly fail to see why so many have such a range of 'issues' with Jewish people... it astounds me that they think not one thing of the brutal massacre of such people but whine endlessly when the attackers are hunted down and put their own people in the way.  It's just one step away from putting all Jewish people in ghettoes.  Pure madness.

I have Jewish ancestry, but know nothing about it really - I don't hate anyone, even Muslims as a group - just their assholes among them...  if the head dress fits ...... well - pack your bags and go back to where the Israelis can get you .... PLEASE!!

LTYC is nothing but a troll - he actually thinks this is fun.  Just ignore him... he'll come back at that one soon.... he's terrified that I've got his number..... unlike FTLW though - we don't yet have his address, photo and full name...... he's a very low priority target... 

Gon'mo for him one day... I like the one on the left - boundaries still to be fully organised along with barriers to escape from Abestine - check points for those willing to work or study - chance to bathe in the ocean with the crocs....

No it isn't John. That number comes from Hamas, is not verified, and includes combatants. It is not evidence of anything, other than that there is another war.

Hamas' strategy is to start wars they have no hope of winning, then deliberately drag those wars into the most heavily populated areas of Gaza. You do not need another Jewish conspiracy theory to explain the outcome, which is why only terrorists and internet racists feel the need to invent them or take them seriously.

Israeli Jewish leaders publicly stated they intended to murder every Palestinian.

They are murdering children, babies, geriatrics, paraplegics, women, and everybody who doesn't have the means to shoot back.

Israeli Jews have destroyed every hospital, building, University, school, bakery, Mosque, Church, and every building of community importance.

Israeli Jews have even murdered Israeli Jews and the parents of the victims are too fearful to complain or protest.

Its mass murder, its Genocide, its the absence of humanity in Israeli Jews.

By the way, Israeli Jews are now being investigated for use of systematic rape against Palestinians since 1948 and before.

There are a few below. The Amelek reference is a historical reference where the Jews committed genocide against another ethnic group.

Please don't thank me.

https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-south-africa-genocide-hate-speech-97a9e4a84a3a6bebeddfb80f8a030724


Quote:
With the ground offensive getting underway in late October, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cited the Bible in a televised address: “You must remember what Amalek has done to you.” Amalekites were persecutors of the biblical Israelites, and a biblical commandment says they must be destroyed.

South Africa argued that the remarks showed Israel’s intent to commit genocide against Palestinians. Netanyahu denied that this week and said he was referring to Amalek as a way to describe Hamas and its attack.

Two days after the Hamas attack, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Israel was “fighting human animals,” in announcing a complete siege on Gaza.

Deputy Knesset speaker Nissim Vaturi from the ruling Likud party wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, that Israelis had one common goal, “erasing the Gaza Strip from the face of the earth.” Israeli Heritage Minister Amichay Eliyahu, from the far-right Jewish Power party, suggested that Israel drop a nuclear bomb on Gaza and said there were “no uninvolved civilians” in the territory.

Israeli soldiers caught on video made similar remarks as they sang and danced in the early days of Israel’s ground offensive.

On Oct. 7, a journalist wrote on X that Gaza should become “a slaughterhouse” if the roughly 250 people taken hostage by Hamas were not returned.

Military officials and two Israeli pop singers are also cited by South Africa for making inflammatory comments.

“The language of systemic dehumanization is evident here,” lawyer Tembeka Ngcukaitobi said for South Africa in remarks before the court. “Genocidal utterances are therefore not out in the fringes. They are embodied in state policy.”

https://time.com/6979208/israel-gaza-death-toll/


Quote:
In war zones, the percentage of civilians killed can vary widely. Studies have shown that more civilians die during fighting in urban areas. In a U.N. Security Council report titled, "Protection of civilians in armed conflict”, the U.N. examined the rate of civilian casualties in populated areas during conflicts in the year 2021. It found that 89 percent of deaths in urban areas were civilians. In non-urban areas that year, the civilian death rate fell to 10 percent.


Given that Hamas is restricting combat almost exclusively to urban areas, the evidence is entirely consistent with Israel not deliberately targeting civilians. It demonstrates both that Israel has in fact achieved a much lower percentage of civilian dead than is typical for urban combat, and that Hamas' strategy is designed to maximise civilian casualties. Israel cannot change Hamas' military strategy, but it can and does minimise civilian casualties within the limitations imposed by Hamas.

Hi, I think the debate has now move passed "If Israel is deliberately targeting civilians."

The debate is now that Palestinian civilian are actually legitimate targets for military action because they support hamas.

That is according to most right wing supporters of Israel.

Stats dont lie. 

As of 27/04/2024, the Israel defence force have dropped 75 000 tonnes of explosives / bombs over gaza.

Each 10000 to 120000 is equivalent to one nuclear bomb used in Hiroshima. 

So, to date, at least, 7 to 8 nuclear bomb worth of explosive used in Gaza. 

Any one with a brain can tell that this is type of indiscriminate killing.   The aim is to make Gaza non habitable, in order to drive the population out.  Even Blind Freddy can see that.

Stats dont lie. 

As of 27/04/2024, the Israel defence force have dropped 75 000 tonnes of explosives / bombs over gaza.

Each 10000 to 120000 is equivalent to one nuclear bomb used in Hiroshima. 

So, to date, at least, 7 to 8 nuclear bomb worth of explosive used in Gaza. 

Any one with a brain can tell that this is type of indiscriminate killing.   The aim is to make Gaza non habitable, in order to drive the population out.  Even Blind Freddy can see that.



Well, the Allies dropped 2.7 million tons of explosives on Germany in WWII.


Lets do some math then. 

The figure is actually 2.7 million tonnes of explosives used over Europe.  1.35 million tonnes over Germany.   World war 2 lasted 6 years.

Area of Gaza is 360 square km.    Area of Germany is roughly 1000 times larger than that.   And if you use the same concentration of bombs, per area.... it would mean that over just 6 months of conflict, Israel dropped equivalent of 75 million tonnes of explosives if Gaza is size of Germany.

The evidence is clear. Many UN agencies have reported the crimes of Israeli Jews.

Israeli Jews are committing mass murder and genocide of Palestinians.

The US, EU, UK, France, and Germany are directly complicit in the murder, the supply of weapons and munitions they know will be used for genocide, and for providing political cover for Israel.

The Global public is turning against the perpetrators and the accomplices of this crime.

I’m really getting fed up with this ridiculous lie that Israel is deliberately targeting civilians. First of all, they are not and never have. It’s no secret that Hamas and Hezbollah use civilians as human shields. They situate their weapons, planning and intelligence centres, command and control centres, hideouts for senior militants, etc in civilian areas such as apartment buildings and schools and hospitals in the hope that Israel won’t attack those targets and if they do, they’ll cop a lot of flak for doing so. We’ve seen this when Israeli special forces infiltrated a hospital in Gaza and carried out a surgical mission to eliminate a terrorist in the hospital. They took great risks to their own personnel to ensure civilians were not harmed when it would’ve been easier to just level the hospital with a bunch of 2000lb bombs. When they have bombed civilian areas, they’ve warned civilians in advance of the impending strike, as we saw last week, in order to minimise the risk to civilians. It’s not the fault of Israel that Hamas and Hezbollah use apartment buildings as launch sites for their rockets or storage sites for their weapons and ammunition. Are the Israelis to just leave those sites untouched and allow them to kill Israeli citizens without fear of retaliation?

Please stop persisting with this ridiculous lie. Anyone who does just looks like a freaking moron who will believe anything they’re told, just like the MAGA freaks.

A year ago today, Hamas infiltrated the border and killed more than 1,200 people and kidnapped over 250 - some of which have since been murdered while being held captive in deplorable conditions. These people were simply at a music festival and were completely defenceless. On the other hand, Israel warns civilians to leave before they launch air strikes in areas where they could be harmed. Your ridiculous argument holds no water, so stop persisting with such a ludicrous and blatant lie.

In a statement, the Israeli military said: "Earlier today, a gathering was identified adjacent to an aid distribution truck that got stuck in the area of Khan Younis, and in proximity to IDF troops operating in the area.

"The IDF is aware of reports regarding a number of injured individuals from IDF fire following the crowd's approach. The details of the incident are under review.

"The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and operates to minimise harm as much as possible to them while maintaining the safety of our troops."

Medics said at least 14 other people were also killed by Israeli gunfire and air strikes elsewhere in the densely populated enclave, taking Tuesday's overall death toll to at least 73.

It's remarkable, isn't it?

When Israel wants to strike a specific apartment nearly 2,000 kilometres away in Iran to take out a single military figure, it can land that missile with surgical precision. Yet when it comes to Gaza, just a few kilometres from its own border, suddenly, the precision evaporates and entire city blocks are levelled. Over and over again, the excuse is that "Hamas is hiding among civilians," as though that justifies flattening neighbourhoods.

But it feels like, even with that example, unless they can be quoted saying they've been deliberatly targeting civilians, you'll dismiss it huh FD?

Meanwhile, Israeli civilians are filmed in tears when Iranian rockets strike near homes or schools, sometimes near actual military targets like Iron Dome batteries or the Kirya itself, the IDF's central command embedded deep within Tel Aviv's civilian sprawl. Israel demands sympathy when its own military is embedded in populated areas, yet shows none when it accuses others of the same.

This is the hypocrisy: they bombed Iran, as Hamas bombed Israel. Then Iran fired back, as Israel did to Gaza. In every case, civilians were killed, and somehow, only some of those deaths are treated as morally outrageous.

And the online discourse? It's now teeming with voices condemning Iranian strikes as barbaric, some of the same people who were silent, or worse, cheering, when Gazan children were buried in rubble. Where was their outrage then? When the victims weren't Jewish or white? When they were Palestinian or Iranian?

You can't cherry-pick your humanity. If killing civilians is wrong when it happens in Tel Aviv, then it's wrong in Rafah and Tehran too. Selective empathy isn't just a moral failing, it exposes the racialised double standards that have polluted this entire conversation.

I'm sick of the civilian casualties that are happening in Gaza, Iran and Israel.

But I'm just some chump on the internet, I have no solution but I wish I could stop it.

And we can't even learn from it.  People will not accept the truth about why Iran restarted their nuclear program.

The whole situation is an absolute quagmire, so deeply politicised that having a rational, honest conversation about it feels like an exercise in futility.

And the worst part? Expressing any concern for innocent civilians or simply acknowledging the complex realities behind recent hostilities too often results in being branded antisemitic or accused of supporting terrorism.

This weaponisation of discourse shuts down nuance and stifles any meaningful dialogue, turning what should be a human tragedy into a toxic battleground of ideological posturing.

It's exactly this kind of toxic environment that makes progress and understanding virtually impossible.

Are you claiming that in order to prove they are not deliberately targeting civilians, Israel should have brought as much destruction to Tehran in 3 days of conflict as it brought to the Gaza strip over more than half a century of conflict - with an enemy that was so close than any Muslim nutcase can, and frequently does, climb onto the roof of his parents apartment building to lob a cheap rocket over the border?

Are you missing something? By choice, and with deliberate dishonesty, yes, absolutely.

You're distorting the conversation, pretending I'm comparing a sustained military offensive to a single isolated airstrike, just so you can dismiss the actual point. That's not intellectual debate, it's sleight-of-hand rhetoric.

There are multiple examples, documented, verified, of single Israeli airstrikes that have obliterated entire residential buildings, even multiple homes at once, killing scores of civilians in Gaza. These aren't multi-day campaigns or the cumulative damage of a year-long offensive.

They're individual strike events, and they're devastating.

Yet when targeting deep inside Iran, over a thousand kilometres away, Israel has demonstrated they can strike a single apartment, kill a specific target, and leave the rest of the building standing. Precision is not theoretical. It is real, and it is used, when politically or strategically necessary.

This reveals a disturbing truth, collateral damage is not always accidental. Sometimes, it is policy.

Here are some example of what I'm talking about in Gaza:

March 2025 – Five‑Storey Residential Collapse (Northwest Gaza City):
One strike. Building gone. Around 30 civilians inside, only 3 recovered alive.

March 2025 – Eleven Homes Flattened (Bani Suheila to Beit Lahia):
One sortie. Multiple family homes erased. Women, newborns, and sleeping children, dead.

March 2025 – "Mass-Strike" Campaign (404 Dead in 24 Hours):
One day. Hundreds killed. Entire city blocks targeted, structures collapsed. Women and children comprised the majority.

April 2025 – Shuja'iyya Strike:
One airstrike. Eight homes levelled. At least 35 dead, 70 injured. Dense residential neighbourhood.

May 2025 – European Hospital Bombing:
Coordinated single-strike drop: nine bunker-busters in 30 seconds. The hospital, Gaza's largest, critically damaged.

May 2025 – Residential Building by Tents (Gaza City):
One building flattened, surrounded by tents housing displaced families. "Dozens" reported killed.

When Israel wants to avoid killing civilians, it shows it can, even in dense urban environments, even in hostile sovereign nations like Iran.
But in Gaza? That restraint evaporates. The result isn't just tactical damage, it's mass civilian death, and it happens with disturbing frequency.

This isn't about capability. It's about calculus. It's about what lives are deemed expendable, and in which context.

So how about this, since you're happy to misrepresent what I've said and the point I'm making to suit your argument, can I instead ask you, what evidence would it take to change your mind?

How many civilians have been allowed to shelter in the underground tunnels ( like where Londoners went during the blitz)

Imagine Churchill saying " no civilians in the underground tunnels".

Are you saying the Germans weren't targeting civilians?  Like, for real, what's your point?

All I'm doing is comparing their displayed capability in Iran to their strikes in Gaza and reading quotes that the IDF have made about Gaza and Gazans.

Deliberate or not, they have caused massive civilian casualties in Gaza, we can at least agree on that, right?

In Iran over 80% of the population hate Islam and the Islamic regime they aren't going to be human shields.
They listen to IDF warnings and GTFO where they intend to bomb.
Iranians on X are telling the IDF what regime targets to hit like state run propaganda called the media
They mock muslims for believing Muhammad rode a flying Donkey.

Hamas have called for civilians to be human shields they agree because they will become martyrs and be rewarded in Islamic afterlife.
Big difference there.

You have IRGC out in open areas not hiding in tunnels which makes it easier.

Urban warfare is the toughest when you add tunnels where people can run into them and appear 500m away it becomes  very difficult.

Just to clarify John, are you claiming that you know the Jews have "given up the pretense" as you put it, because of things the Jew did not say?

And you know the Jew has never said these things because it was not quoted exactly as you demand he say it in an article you stumbled across on the internet in which he said a bunch of other things?

Never mind that the exact quote you expect the Jew to say is so stupid that it only reveals your naiveté about how you think war is conducted, or at least, how you think the Jews should conduct war.

And the fact that the Jew said other things that are almost the exact opposite of what you concluded must be attributed to confusion on the part of the Jew, and not to your confusion, your hatred of Jews, and your eagerness to spread lies about Jews at every opportunity?

It's remarkable, isn't it?

When Israel wants to strike a specific apartment nearly 2,000 kilometres away in Iran to take out a single military figure, it can land that missile with surgical precision. Yet when it comes to Gaza, just a few kilometres from its own border, suddenly, the precision evaporates and entire city blocks are levelled. Over and over again, the excuse is that "Hamas is hiding among civilians," as though that justifies flattening neighbourhoods.


Are you claiming that in order to prove they are not deliberately targeting civilians, Israel should have brought as much destruction to Tehran in 3 days of conflict as it brought to the Gaza strip over more than half a century of conflict - with an enemy that was so close than any Muslim nutcase can, and frequently does, climb onto the roof of his parents apartment building to lob a cheap rocket over the border?

Am I missing something, or is your argument really that stupid?

I am sure Israel would be willing to level Tehran if that is what it takes to stop Iran nuking Israel.

Perhaps you should get your understanding of middle eastern conflict from a more reliable source than your gullible friends sharing idiotic memes on facebook.


Are you missing something? By choice, and with deliberate dishonesty, yes, absolutely.

You're distorting the conversation, pretending I'm comparing a sustained military offensive to a single isolated airstrike, just so you can dismiss the actual point. That's not intellectual debate, it's sleight-of-hand rhetoric.

There are multiple examples, documented, verified, of single Israeli airstrikes that have obliterated entire residential buildings, even multiple homes at once, killing scores of civilians in Gaza. These aren't multi-day campaigns or the cumulative damage of a year-long offensive.

They're individual strike events, and they're devastating.

Yet when targeting deep inside Iran, over a thousand kilometres away, Israel has demonstrated they can strike a single apartment, kill a specific target, and leave the rest of the building standing. Precision is not theoretical. It is real, and it is used, when politically or strategically necessary.

This reveals a disturbing truth, collateral damage is not always accidental. Sometimes, it is policy.

Here are some example of what I'm talking about in Gaza:

March 2025 – Five‑Storey Residential Collapse (Northwest Gaza City):
One strike. Building gone. Around 30 civilians inside, only 3 recovered alive.

March 2025 – Eleven Homes Flattened (Bani Suheila to Beit Lahia):
One sortie. Multiple family homes erased. Women, newborns, and sleeping children, dead.

March 2025 – "Mass-Strike" Campaign (404 Dead in 24 Hours):
One day. Hundreds killed. Entire city blocks targeted, structures collapsed. Women and children comprised the majority.

April 2025 – Shuja'iyya Strike:
One airstrike. Eight homes levelled. At least 35 dead, 70 injured. Dense residential neighbourhood.

May 2025 – European Hospital Bombing:
Coordinated single-strike drop: nine bunker-busters in 30 seconds. The hospital, Gaza's largest, critically damaged.

May 2025 – Residential Building by Tents (Gaza City):
One building flattened, surrounded by tents housing displaced families. "Dozens" reported killed.

When Israel wants to avoid killing civilians, it shows it can, even in dense urban environments, even in hostile sovereign nations like Iran.
But in Gaza? That restraint evaporates. The result isn't just tactical damage, it's mass civilian death, and it happens with disturbing frequency.

This isn't about capability. It's about calculus. It's about what lives are deemed expendable, and in which context.

So how about this, since you're happy to misrepresent what I've said and the point I'm making to suit your argument, can I instead ask you, what evidence would it take to change your mind?


I am not ignoring anything. I am pointing out the stupidity of your argument. Collecting a few other equally stupid comments does not make it any smarter, and I did not think it necessary to go through the tedium of explain why every single comment is stupid. Was I wrong?

The Jew (the one in the article you decided to quote) made it clear they do not deliberately target civilians. You insisted the Jew must have been confused when he said this, and based on the absence of some other, stupider version of the statement, concluded pretty much the opposite of what he said.

Is it only Jews that you apply your special logic to?

Do you hate them and spread lies about them at every opportunity because they are Jews, or because they are relatively wealthy and successful?

I am not saying you are stupid.

Also, the Gaza strip is much smaller than Iran, so you would expect the damage from an ongoing war to be more concentrated.

And: different levels of commitment. Hamas and the Palestinian people are far more willing to die in the cause of slaughtering Jews than the Iranian leadership or the Iranian people. Therefor, Hamas keeps attacking Israel, and suffering the consequences, way past the point at which you would expect Iran to fold.

All valid points.

So it's not that civilians aren't being deliberately targeted, it's that you believe doing so is somehow justified OR, you're trying to reclassify them as combatants?

If, as you suggest, every civilian is aligned by choice, then sure, that's a neat moral framework to work within. But it's far too tidy for a situation this fraught.

The problem is far more complex. The people of Gaza are not free to leave. They are trapped, hemmed in by Israel's blockade and Egypt's complicity, across land, sea, and air.

They are effectively in an open-air prison.

And then there's the political stranglehold.  There has been no election in Gaza for over 19 years. An entire generation has come of age under a government they never had the chance to vote for. People in their late teens or younger, old enough to die in airstrikes (well, that's ageless sadly), weren't even born when Hamas came into power.

So to suggest that all civilians are Hamas supporters, and are so "by choice" is not only intellectually lazy, it's dangerously dehumanising.

That framing brushes aside the lived reality of a population subjected to blockade, political repression, and generational trauma, all under the shadow of repeated military assaults and absolute external control.

Even if you've convinced yourself that some degree of collective punishment is acceptable, escalating that into "they deserve to die" is something else entirely, a moral abyss.

No. I am saying it is a completely different type of war. It is stupid to conclude from an aerial photo of Gaza vs Tehran that Israel must be deliberately targeting civilians in Gaza, when there are plenty of bleeding obvious explanations that don't boil down to "those evil Jews". Do you agree?

And yes, taking out someone who is firing rockets at your citizens is justified. It is Hamas that makes the decision to put its own citizens in the line of fire, a violation of the Geneva convention. Israel cannot exactly decide to let them fire rockets over the border at will because they do so from urban areas. It cannot allow them to take hostages because they come from and retreat to urban areas.

The world’s sole Jewish state takes the threat of its annihilation seriously. Among the few things that can unite the Israeli left, right and centre is the conviction that life in their country will be made impossible – if not ended immediately – once Iran has the bomb. So they acted.

In these circumstances, I’m not sure what calls for ‘de-escalation’ actually mean, other than being a way for irrelevant people to try to prove their relevance. But anyone interested in peace in the Middle East – and the wider world – would do well to wish for something rather different: a swift and intense escalation to finish off the Iranian nuclear project once and for all. That way, a roomful of the country’s negotiators won’t be able to continue running rings round whichever second-rate muppets govern western countries in the years to come.

There’s a low-resolution viewpoint in the West that everyone in the world has the luxury of living as we do. But not all people have the good fortune to be in Fife or Inverness. And of course, at times in our own past we didn’t enjoy the luxuries of peace either. Perhaps we could recall those times and remember that at our own moments of greatest peril, nothing short of total victory was desirable for us. And nothing short of total victory should be desirable for our allies either.

Newsweek is wrong: IDF's killing of Gaza civilians compares poorly to other armies, other wars

That article deliberately avoids comparing it with urban warfare. It misses the point of the newsweek article entirely. Either the author is a moron, or is just another eager to spread lies about the Jews. Perhaps that is why you had to go to linkedin to find someone willing to claim it is wrong.

I guess we are going with the moron version then. The war in Gaza is pretty much exclusively urban combat. WWII was predominantly fought in non-urban areas. If they restricted their analysis to those WWII battles that were urban combat they would have a valid point, and would likely reach the same conclusion as the article they claim to be disproving. But they don't.

Sure. What sealed the deal was Greg's effort to com up with contradictory evidence. He could only come up with illogical nonsense. In any case, it is up to the Jew haters to prove that Israel is deliberately targeting civilians, rather than them being gullible enough to believe any terrorist propaganda they can find against the Jews.

It certainly beats a meme pretending that a photo comparing Gaza to Tehran proves that Israel is deliberately targeting civilians.

Google AI tells me that WWII was mostly fought in non-urban areas in Europe. I think you have been very selective with your quoting, leaving out the bits that agree with what I posted and only including the vague bits that don't actually say either way.

Even in WWII the evidence is clear: civilian death toll rates were much higher in urban combat.



Except that I didn't edit anything. I quoted in full the summary Google AI gave me. You could of course link your own evidence instead of just making proclamations and expecting everyone else to play stupid.

I cannot link to the AI overview, but I think it gets it from here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_warfare


Quote:
In the European theatre of war, roughly 40% of battles took place in urban areas.

Military historian Victor Davis Hanson noted the lethality of urban warfare in the Second World War, "When civilian met soldier in the confined landscapes, the death toll spiked, and it was no surprise that the greatest carnage of World War II—at Leningrad and Stalingrad—was the result of efforts to storm municipal fortresses".


Do you have any evidence that Israel is deliberately targeting civilians, or are you just relying on your confusion arising from not knowing what you are talking about and not even being able to use google to inform yourself?

The time magazine article debunking the ignorant and childish argument that the civilian death toll in Gaza should be interpreted as evidence that Israel is deliberately targeting civilians:

Quote:
In war zones, the percentage of civilians killed can vary widely. Studies have shown that more civilians die during fighting in urban areas. In a U.N. Security Council report titled, "Protection of civilians in armed conflict”, the U.N. examined the rate of civilian casualties in populated areas during conflicts in the year 2021. It found that 89 percent of deaths in urban areas were civilians. In non-urban areas that year, the civilian death rate fell to 10 percent.


Given that Hamas is restricting combat almost exclusively to urban areas, the evidence is entirely consistent with Israel not deliberately targeting civilians. It demonstrates both that Israel has in fact achieved a much lower percentage of civilian dead than is typical for urban combat, and that Hamas' strategy is designed to maximise civilian casualties. Israel cannot change Hamas' military strategy, but it can and does minimise civilian casualties within the limitations imposed by Hamas.

"Not deliberately targeting."  Hmm, is that the same as knowingly targetting a civilian area an not giving a stuff about civilian deaths?

Try again without mincing your negatives Aussie.

Israel knows that Hamas is operating its war from withing the most heavily populated areas and goes to some effort to reduce civilian casualties, that it would not bother with if Hamas were to operate outside of civilian areas. That's probably part of the reason why Hamas does it. It increases the civilian casualties, but makes it easier for them to get away. But it does not mean Israel is going to refrain entirely from protecting itself so as not to kill Gazan civilians. The IDF puts Israeli citizens first, and not firing back would just invite every Muslim fanatic in the middle east to come and lob rockets.

It's in the post you responded to Aussie, in the link. Around half of those killed in Gaza were civilians, compared to 89% typical for urban combat. This is even more impressive when you consider than many of the deaths occur during intermittent combat, when a Hamas militant will climb onto his mother's roof and lob a rocket over the boarder into Israel, and the only defence Israel has against this is to immediately fire back from a significant distance.

Why do you think it has taken 11 pages, on top of all the propaganda in so many other threads, for the Jew haters to take a break from spreading lies about Jews and actually think about what they are saying?

If Peccary, as he claims, is overtly against Israel's reaction and covertly saying he doesn't support Palestine's actions. Then a true 'neutrality' would keep his mouth shut and butt out rather than shouting out his virtual signalling for himself that he supports neither. Switzerland didn't do it during WW2. You didn't see them trumpet out of their arses how superior they were over the two opposing sides for being neutral during the war.

Imagine Switzerland mouthing off Britain as genociders against Nazis overtly on a League of Nations forum, while covertly saying they don't support Nazis either (by lack of condemnation) because they virtue signal themselves as neutral and morally superior to both.
In reality, Switzerland kept its head down and its mouth shut, until the dust settled and even after, was just grateful it's neutrality wasn't like No Man's Land in between.

So what we have here are a pair of Wankers mouthing off against Israel big time on this Forum like a pair of heroes from the Left, in the hope of 'capitalising' on a conflict between two peoples just to show us all how clever and smart they are for doing so and how important they are to the solution of ending the conflict, because they know there is NO CONSEQUENCE hidden behind a keyboard anonymously, for their parasitic trolling in pursuit of their jollies to annoy others just because they can.

Someone hand them a Tina Turner Award "We don't need another hero."

Hamas have declared their intent to kill every Jew.

The IDF have a moral duty to kill every member of hamas.

If they (Hamas) choose to use women and children as human shields then it is hamas trying to perform a genocide on the Palestinian people

Exactly.

Once or twice, there could be a mistake.  Sure.  It happens.

However, they expect us to believe that every single day the IDF gets its intelligence & coordinates wrong and "accidentally" hits women, children, schools and maternity hospitals instead of Hamas.

It's an insult to everyone's intelligence to be expected to believe such nonsense.

You do realise you are parroting Hamas propaganda.


There is no propaganda, it's just a fact. I know you don't typically like facts, preferring fantasy, but facts are relevant when discussing current events.

These numbers are from Hamas. Al Jazeera and UN just repeat them.

How many Hamas fighters have been killed? How many of them were hiding among non-comatants when they were killed? All of them.


How many IDF soldiers were killed while hiding among civilians? None.

Even filmed by drones wearing women's clothes to hide.
Can see why Lefties support Terrorists.
Cowardice comes easy for such people.

And yet gazas Health ministries numbers have typically been reliable, if not conservative, something that cannot be said about what comes out of Israels propaganda machine


Quote:
Its numbers have historically been considered reliable by the United Nations, the World Health Organization, and Human Rights Watch.[1][2][3] In relation to the Gaza war, two letters published in The Lancet journal did not find evidence of inflation or fabrication of Palestinian casualty numbers.[4][5] A peer-reviewed analysis published by The Lancet in January 2025 concluded the GHM had undercounted deaths due to traumatic injury by 41% in its reports on the Gaza war, with the total estimated traumatic injury deaths as of October 2024 probably exceeding 70,000 as opposed to the GHM's reported 41,909—59.1% of them being women, children and the elderly.[6]

Distraction after distraction.

Focus, genocide lovers.

Do you really expect us to believe this:

The IDF - one of the most sophisticated and highly trained military forces on the planet - can't aim straight?

Day after day and year after year they get their intelligence & coordinates wrong and "accidentally" hit women, children, schools and maternity hospitals instead of Hamas?

I hate it when people deliberately target innocent civilians.

You know, like Hamas and the IDF do.

I don't hate Jews.

You?

“This morning, innocent families were mercilessly attacked as they stood in line waiting for the doors to open. This is a blatant violation of international humanitarian law,” said Rabih Torbay, the NGO’s chief executive.

Now that you have provided a link for your source, we can see that the article provides evidence that Israel was not deliberately targeting civilians. It provides no evidence that they were.

Do you have any reason, other than your hatred of Jews, to believe Israel is deliberately targeting civilians?


Quote:
"An attack is a deliberate and intentional act, meaning it is planned and carried out with a purpose, rather than happening by chance or accident."


Are you quoting someone here, or just peddling Jew hating propaganda that you realise is so stupid that you don't want to take credit for it?

Why did you run away last time I asked you this, then come back to the article now?

Would you rather portray yourself as a moron, or a racist Jew hater?

It would be laughable, if it wasn't so sickening.

"At least eight people were killed, including children, in an Israeli bombardment of a school sheltering displaced people in northern Gaza".


Other than the fact they they are Jewish, do you have any evidence that they are lying?

TGD was outraged. But only because he figured out a way to blame the Jews.

"Israeli strikes in Gaza killed at least 104 people, including dozens of children, the enclave’s health authorities said on Wednesday, marking the deadliest day since the beginning of the ceasefire championed by US President Donald Trump."
