At least the children weren't in school as the attacks were overnight.

 

For sure, the human shields at the rocket launch sites should have been safely tucked up in bed at that time.  It's horrible to think about but it's the reality of what Israel are dealing with. Overnight precision strikes are part of the minimising of innocent deaths. If only the terrorists did the same instead of hitting a busy restaurant in the evening. What a terrible situation the Iranian despots and their antisemitic gophers have brought about.

They would argue they didn't,  they would argue it was their land so they couldn't have invaded it..

It's all perspectives. 

 

and the hostages they took weren't really hostages either right??

 

Get your head out of your backside and stop apologising for terrorists.

And what about all the hostages that are held by Israel? Only they call them prisoners??

A large amount of them have never even been charged with anything,  just held as hostages.. and it's been going on for years, even before October last year.. please educate yourself and read independent news, not just the bias crap that you're getting fed..

Im afraid you're the one that's apologising for terrorists...

Must cost a lot to feed all the hostages!

When the poster is attempting to apologise for terrorist atrocities, it's hard not to.

Atrocities on both sides?

Get over yourself you idiot.  The attack by Hamas on the 7th October last year was pure terrorism, to even attempt to frame it in any other was is completely unacceptable.

hahaha,

Another one giving out the abuse, guess you are really stuck for a reasoned reply?..

You call me the idiot, but you believe all the hype from our media, you didnt even know that Iran had weapons and technology that could get past the iron dome, you were laughing saying they gave it their best shot and failed, and then Iran went and proved you and the brainwashing media wrong...

As i said, Israel had literally hundreds of hostages, even before October last year...go on, prove me wrong???

Dropping in to ask people to not get personal, and to debate the subject.

 

This is a very nuanced and emotive topic, with a lot of history and complexities on all sides. You've done well so far, but please don't let it degrade to arguing or shutting each other down.

 

Remember, not all support for palestine is support for the terrorist group Hamas or the horrific events of 7th October. Likewise, not all criticism of Israel is anti-semetic, and not all support for the military activities of Israel is outright support for everything Israel.

 

There are nuances to all sides and each argument should be debated properly and respectfully.

Quite, on one side you've got a Military/Government out of control, on the other side you've got bloodthirsty terrorists.  Stuck in the middle are civilians taking a terrible toll from both sides.

 

To try and explain away anyone's actions as simply a matter of 'perspective' is sickening.
