Except that Hamas has released the children. As far as we know the only two children still captive are infants, you want them separated from their parents? That does not sound better. You're more concerned about TWO infants than the literal tens of thousands of dead and wounded children.
Now you can stop with your concern trolling. You're only goal here is both siding genocide and apartheid. The apartheid and ethnic cleansing has been ongoing for far longer than Hamas has been around and you know that. We're you vehemently denouncing Israel and asking for the release of the thousands of Palestinian hostages before Oct 7th? I highly doubt it.
Why were they not released immediately?
Why did they have to be traded?
Fuck Hummus and Israel, they are child killing bastards who have decided that they are going to do what they want and damn the consequences to anyone in their way.
Fuck Hummus and israel for involving motherfucking children.
Fuck Hummus and Israel for kidnapping children.
Good enough for you?
My motherfucking comment history is clearly visible and will show how I damn well feel about the Israeli’s
Quit trying to act like Hummus are the good guys here.
There are no good guys on either side of this war and they all just need to fucking stop this bullshit killing and come to the fucking table like adults
No not good enough for me. Again you're the type of person who would have asked people to condemn ZOB in the Warsaw uprising. You're basically tone policing people who are, and have been, actively genocided for decades. Get fucked. No genocide, no hammas, no violence. You don't want it to exist? Then end Zionism, let the people return to their homelands, and pay reparations.
See how that sounds exactly like what Netanyahu, various ministers like Ben-Gvir, members of the Knesset, and media pundits have been saying? Well actually it's a quote from Himmler talking about the Warsaw uprising with the context switched around.
Ok so in your view every action Hamas has taken is legitimate, including the kidnapping of children?
I'm my view it's not worth my time criticizing single actions of desperate people.
How do you feel about Nelson Mandela?
That is not the question I asked.
Do you feel that everything Hamas has done is legitimate?
You don’t get to brush stuff under the rug because it doesn’t help your argument
I'm my view it's not worth my time criticizing individual actions of desperate people. Whether some resistance actions are questionable or not is not of particular importance. Resistance itself is moral, legal, and justifiable. Including armed resistance as reiterated multiple times by UN resolutions.
How do you feel about Nelson Mandela? Why are you ignoring the question?
I don’t know shit about Mandela, other than the fact that half the world thought he died.
I’ll be more direct for you, do you think it is ever okay to kidnap children, and, if so, why and in what situations?
I've been very clear so let me repeat again. I think it's the unfortunate consequence of the escalating violence of the occupation, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid. You don't want oppressed people to commit acts of violence, then don't oppress them.
You're basically asking what is the level of violence that is ok for a someone to use when defending themselves from domestic violence to the point where they fear for their lives.
No I will not condemn Hamas. There were less violent options before, those clearly did not work. I condemn occupation, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing. Self defense is always ok, even if sometimes it's messier than we would like. You can leave now, I've made myself extremely clear. I don't know what the fuck it is that you want other than waste my time.
But before you go, let me as once again, do you condemn ZOB?
Ok person who is fine with people kidnapping children.
Nice strawman.
Do you condemn ZOB?
Did they kidnap any kids?
Notice I have excluded killing kids this whole time.
That I do believe could happen on accident at least, in fact, I change my comment.
Did they intentionally kidnap any kids, if so, did they ransom them, or return them for free?
You don't k ow who ZOB is do you?
Jewish resistance
