The Palestinian group Hamas has condemned Israel for committing a “horrific massacre” on Saturday morning, targeting the home of a physician who works at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, and killing nine of her 10 children while critically injuring her husband, Anadolu reports.

I never said that. Israel is being evil too. But a lot of people on here want to justify one for the other. I don't care about scale or cause if your method kills children. Both are bad. There are people saying it's okay for Israel to bomb hospitals because of Hamas's actions and there are people justifying Hamas because of Israel's actions. I say fuck both.

Pure slime.

You started this thread with "Both sides kill children." No one was defending the actions of Hamas? By coming in and saying "well Hamas is bad too" underneath a thread about another massacre, you come off as a clear zionist tbh.

I'm guessing Israel is just defending itself and is at "war", right? Dead children is just a sad but unimportant consequence of what Israel is "forced to do".
