    I mean are you suggesting that it would be a better tactic for hamas to engage in pitched battles with the IDF? Come on. If we accept that they have the right to fight we’re gonna have to come to terms with the fact that they are not in a position to engage in peer vs peer combat. Everything they do will be asymmetrical.

      I don’t think you understand what asymmetrical warfare means, it usually doesn’t involve massacring and torturing civilians for zero strategic gain. That’s just terrorism

        If you think there’s a difference between terrorism and asymmetric warfare I don’t think you should be lecturing anyone.

          Assymetric warfare would generally include targets of some military value. There’s some overlap but calling this justified in any way is just providing cover for Hamas to do whatever they want.

          If you want to argue honestly, Hamas has done nothing but exploit and screw over the Palestinian people. They’ve destroyed any future for Gaza and caused their own people to die, again and again.

            How is me explaining that the idea of engaging in pitched battles anywhere close to me justifying fucking anything, or propping up hamas. Like most zionists you are completely incapable of actually engaging.

      Honestly the fact that neither side has stood in an honourable square formation and shot musket laden volley after volley into each other says a lot about how barbaric they are.
