Residents in the enclave say terror group executed at least six organizers; Gaza City resident returned to his family after four hours of torture and died shortly afterward, while others reported missing
Hamas has begun cracking down on Gazans who participated in recent protests against the group’s rule, executing six people and publicly beating others, according to Palestinian activists and residents.
just a reminder for anyone who says being pro-Palestine is being pro-hamas. Palestinians want to be free and to not be killed. this genocide is not about hamas. hamas is a pretext and a justification. the genocide is really about hate
Hamas is not evil dawg lmao I would be hamas if the shit happened here. Any reasonable person would take up arms in defense of their land whether they agree with the organization fully or not.
If American bombs destroyed your entire neighborhood and killed your entire family along with all your neighbors and everyone you went to school with you would rightfully seek out a way to fight the party responsible.
It's disingenuous to call hamas evil. Israel broke a ceasefire, killed 500 people(mostly children), kidnapped rescue workers and executed them, and has refused to allow aid into Gaza for over a month. That is evil. Any resistance to that in any form is just and righteous.
To call it evil is covering up Israel's decades long war crimes against Palestinians. A hundred thousand deaths on Israel's bloody hands? That is evil. Reducing an entire civilization to rubble for giving you a well deserved black eye after 70 years of oppression and apartheid is evil. Any evil you percieve from hamas is an in-kind response.
Resisting is human nature.
Stop playing their game.
Any time you feel tempted to condemn hamas, condemn Israel for propping them up and creating the conditions for Oct. 7th. Anything less is giving them cover to continue this genocide. If hamas is evil then killing all Palestinians is rational and necessary. You are unwittingly manufacturing consent for genocide when you do this.
So don't mix two distinct conflicts in one paragraph
Sorry to come across condescending, but you can hate/disapprove Israeli politics and their followers as much as you can hate/disapprove hamas and their followers.
Maybe it is time to stop and consider: maybe both Israel and Hamas are committing crimes of the most severe kind. History is not in short supply of one one tyranny fighting another.___
Frederica Matteoni (writing in German for Berliner Zeitung) probably has checked her sources.
Second paragraph in the piece:
"Oday Nasser Al Rabay's body was dumped outside his family's home over the weekend, report Times of Israel and other Israeli media, citing statements from relatives."
No it can't be!!! You mean both sides have extremeist elements that do bad things?
You mean a lot of people are really just innocent victims of the perpetuation of conflict? Two warring nations doing tick for tack violence to each other for no other reason than the last random active violence? Quote some 800 year old history of violence and do some more?
If both sides are bad can you please explain how I can virtue signal and make this about me?
This is some absolute bullshit. I guess the bots and misinformation bombing has started again. Even on cursory glance this is some bullshit. So hamas are being targeted by Israel, that's who they're supposedly bombing, even when they're underground they're bombing them, under tents, under hospitals, under all the children they can find, but they just go out, put orders on and kill their own citizens? How stupid do they think we are. I haven't seen one of these propaganda pieces that actually have or pass basic common sense.
