Israel now plans "boots on the ground", says ground attack chances "very high"

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

The issue a lot of people have with this issue is that the Israeli response is massively disproportionate to the original provocation. You simply can't justify massive bombardment of a civilian area.

Hamas also fire rockets at various Israel cities (civilian area too?).

Maybe Israel should dismantle their Iron Dome system, so that number of casualties would be the roughly same on both sides?

Fair enough?

You've officially jumped the shark.

Whoever voted "Goooooo Hamas" has some kind of brain damage, for sure.

Wanna make a bet?

a lot of people are idiots too. you wouldn't walk up to a pro boxer slap him repeatedly after he told you to stop & not expect to get your a$$ kicked would you? 'don't start none won't be none'

I'm not convinced that the iron dome actually works. In previous engagements their effect was overstated. I would be surprised if they take down 10% of rockets.

Hitler thought he could justify exterminating the Jews of Europe. That doesn't mean it was the right thing to do

Up to 80% of fatalities in Israel’s bombing of Gaza are civilians – UN

That's the reality here, not frigging cartoons. Real people dying real deaths who are in the middle of the situation they have no control over and can't influence.

You really trust what the UN says? Wow, you must have been living in a cave for like...the last four decades.

And...don't forget...

You ever try and kill a housefly with hand grenades? Nope, I haven't either.

Comparing Hamas to a housefly is disingenuous.

Yeah you think it's all justifiable, I get it. What that says to me is that brutal conditions create brutal people.

Any analogy is disingenuous. The one about the boxer was as well but you aren't complaining about that.

no. but, I have rolled up newspaper and splatted a few.

I'm not because a boxer can beat someone up. A house fly cannot injure me.

no, that was actually a good one. you don't provoke someone that you know can and will KO you.
