Israeli forces discovered the bodies of six hostages in a 65-foot-deep tunnel in Rafah, approximately a kilometer from where hostage Farhan Alkadi was recently freed. The IDF had no precise intelligence on the hostages’ location in recent months but knew there were captives in the sector, leading to a gradual and cautious operation in Rafah since the ground offensive began.

    I wasn’t sure you were. It seemed like you were trying to suggest that Oct. 7th was a legally protected action.

    What specific actions done by Hamas are you attempting to claim are legally protected?

      I wasn’t talking about specific actions at all. You were responding to someone talking about whether the existence of Hamas was understandable. I agree with him that it is. Armed resistence against occupiers is to be expected and it’s protected by international law.

            If you weren’t suggesting that Hamas is merely armed resistance and legally protected by the international courts, what was your last sentence in reference to?

              Hamas is an armed resistence and they sometimes perform acts of terrorism. Life isn’t always black and white. Thanks for the discussion, but I’m done here.

                And there it is, little buddy proving that this is not a Pro-Palestinian, but rather a pro-Hamas movement.

                Don’t be a coward who runs away after taking the mask off. Actually stand by what you said and be willing to discuss it.

                    If you don’t want to be called out for being a propagandist for a terrorist organization, the simple solution is to stop being one.
