Tapper was visibly disgusted after ex-Israeli ambassador Mark Regev victim-blamed nine members of a CNN producer’s family who were killed in Israeli airstrikes.

        They didn’t heed the updated maps. The situation is fluid since the terrorists are hiding in and under the civilization population.

          Israel destroyed the internet and telephone infastructure in gaza so no one could communicate.

          What air dropped maps are they supposed to follow and when are they supposed to follow them to not be killed indiscriminately? How did Israel make sure everyone had the current maps to ensure their safety from the bombing?

            Hamas has the maps and should use them to help evacuate people, but instead it’s using them to ensure its civilians are in harm’s way since many Muslims believe in martyrdom like savages.

              You said it was their fault for not going where Israel said to go, but now youre saying that Israel isn’t responsible for telling them where it’s safe to be? Which is it?

            Yeah. The terrorists are pathetic, hiding in schools, hospitals, and family homes.

              The local government is supposed to tell civilians where an invading army is going to bomb them when israel has purposely destroyed all telecommunications?

              How would the local goverment know the invading armies plans? How would they communicate them to innocent families when all infastructure to do so was purposely destroyed?

                Because IDF is publicizing where the safe spaces are as they are updated and Hamas is turning around and making those places not safe. So blame Hamas.

              Hamas won by a slim majority in 2006, was supposed to be part of a unity government with Fatah, who they then turned on and began murdering in 2007 and then took power by force. Many Gazans weren’t even born in 2006, nevermind old enough to vote.

              You’re holding people accountable for something that they had no say in.

                By your own account then, it would seem that Israel is then working to remove a corrupt regime.

      Yeah, they should have fled south where the IDF bombed those that left the north…

        Per the news story. The IDF provided leaflets mapping out safe zones. Hamas should have provided these to it’s people and provided safe passage.

          It’s funny that your name is a character from Star Wars. That reminds me…

          All those people on Alderaan should have just left when the Death Star showed up, right? It’s actually a really good analogy. Thanks.

            Darth Vader called 2 hours prior, told them all 45 billion of them Alderaans had to leave the planet. It’s not his fault, the Empire is the most moral army in the galaxy.

            There is no comparison. Israel is not an empire because it doesn’t have an emperor. Alderan was not given warning to evacuate. You can’t compare strategic bombing of Jawas with a kyber crystal-based WMD.

              Your main objection to the complete obliteration of Alderaan is… they weren’t given warning to evacuate?

              This provides even more insight into your thinking. That moment in the movie is meant to illuminate the lack of morals and remorse of those on the Death Star. And you say, “well they should have given them some time to leave. The complete destruction of their homes is fine though.”

                Obviously, the destruction of the planet was totally uncalled for. They should have been more strategic with their space lasers. This is an area that my people have better experience in than the Stormtroopers.

          I find your comment to be supportive of genocide, murder, and apartheid. As a result, your character is disgusting and repulsive. May you be judged accordingly.

      Looking for an excuse to ignore cruelty never reflects well on the person doing it. It alerts the reader that you understand what is happening is wrong and are going ahead with it anyways.

        Sounds to me like the only people being cruel are Hamas. Israel blockaded Gaza because the Gazans were posing a threat. They proved that yet again. I feel for the civilians, but the blood is on Hammas’ hands.
