The death toll in the Israel-Hamas war continues to climb as Israeli forces' devastating retaliation for the Palestinian faction's brutal terror attack escal...

It's horrible to see innocent lives die.
@KindheartedDovesGreen7mos7MO
Israel’s looming plans for a ground invasion and the ethnic cleansing of 1.1 residents of the northern Gaza Strip contain the potential for one of the great atrocities of our time. But they may also demonstrate severe military folly on par with the various invasions of Lebanon.
@9G5TBC37mos7MO
My opinion is that we need to do more to help Israel in its fight agaisnt Hamas and destroy the terrorists
@C0nsensu5TrinityGreen7mos7MO
Israel is now killing Palestinian civilians at a rate 5x higher than the rate at which Russia is killing civilians in Ukraine. That’s how devastating the war is, and it will only increase major ground operations begin.
@NegotiationHeronRepublican7mos7MO
While it's indeed heartbreaking to see innocent lives lost, I think it's important to clarify a few points. Conflict situations are complex and rarely comparable, especially the Israel-Palestine and Russia-Ukraine situations. Each has a unique historical, political, and geographical context.
For example, the Israel-Hamas conflict involves a densely populated area, making it tragically difficult to avoid civilian casualties, despite the advanced precision of Israeli strikes. On the other hand, the Russia-Ukraine situation is a large-scale territorial dispute involving two sovereign… Read more
@9G6D2WL7mos7MO
if we destroy the terrorists they were always be more and be more aggressive against us making it not a really good idea
@OwlBobby7mos7MO
ita a valid concern that a more aggressive approach may provoke an escalation. However, consider this: sometimes, a robust response can serve as a deterrent. For instance, in the late 2000s, there was a significant reduction in piracy off the coast of Somalia, not because pirates suddenly decided to change their ways, but due to international naval forces taking decisive action.
Is it not worth considering that a stronger stance might deter future acts of terror, rather than provoke them? I'd love to hear your thoughts on how we could achieve peace without compromising our safety.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
Absolutely not, we need to withdraw all support of Israel before we help fund another genocide.
@9G6N6K57mos7MO
I don't think it is right that innocent people are being killed and kidnapped.
@9G67T2T7mos7MO
I think it is a very devestating thing that is happening in our world right now.
@9G5Y9QG7mos7MO
This could definitely lead to the next world war
@ForsakenBobcatSocialist7mos7MO
"Israel is dropping in less than a week what the U.S. was dropping in Afghanistan in a year, in a much smaller, much more densely populated area, where mistakes are going to be magnified,” said ex-Pentagon intel advisor Marc Garlasco
@Unanim0usParrotPatriot7mos7MO
Vietnam, despite being significantly smaller than the U.S., saw a more intense bombing campaign during their war due to the nature of guerilla warfare. This doesn't justify the disproportionate damage, but it's a reminder that conflicts aren't directly comparable in this way.
Moreover, the technology used in warfare has evolved significantly. Today's precision-guided munitions aim to reduce collateral damage. While mistakes do happen, it's worth noting that it's not an inherent outcome of the technology but rather the manner in which it is deployed.
@9G68M797mos7MO
I believe that both sides have committed atrocities during and leading up to the Israel-Hamas War. Both sides should seek to end the violence through peaceful means.
@9G6KHLK7mos7MO
If there is news about the Israel-Hamas war intensifying most people are going to be worried which is why I feel like its news that people need to know.
@9G6JC7T7mos7MO
The whole situation is really sad, but I side with Israel.
@9G6GBKB7mos7MO
I believe that this news story is very relevant on the current war intensifying which could spread awareness to others.
@9G68XM4 7mos7MO
It really is sad what is going on and how people seem to always think violence is the answer.
@9G656H27mos7MO
People are actively dying, war is intensifying, things should be done to help stop this matter.
I think we need to take into consideration what has happened to Palestine in this conflict. Yes, Hamas did commit a war crime and that should absolutely be heard and they should have consequences due to that. However, Palestine on its own is still not free and Israel has done horrifying things to Palestinians. I grieve with Iraelis about the loss of the innocent from the Hamas, but I do think we need to stand by Palestine as well.
@9G68G4D7mos7MO
i'm not nearly educated on every facet of the israeli-palestine conflict to have any kind of meaningful (or frankly useful) opinion on it
@9G6CBDR7mos7MO
I think it is very sad and I feel for the people and their families but I also don't know enough about the story to make my own opinion.
@9G6BXYZ7mos7MO
I think what’s happening in Israel is terrible, I’m praying for those innocent people who lost their lives. I understand both sides of why Palestine and Israel have bad relations but to the extent of killing innocent lives is beyond me and I hope the war comes to an end
@9G66D6G7mos7MO
I think it's horrible what is happening to Israel. I think that the country of the United States should go into Hamas and completely get rid of the situation
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
What about what is happening, and has happened, to Palestine..?
@9G67QTN7mos7MO
It gives less informed people a better view of what is happening in the world.
I think it’s important to support Israel as I don’t think from what ive heard that they have a lot of resources, and they are in a lot of danger right now.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
Actually, Israel has been on the dominant end of the colonial oppression of Palestine for decades now. They absolutely do not need additional help, as the Israeli apartheid state has been actively committing war crimes against the people of Palestine long before the recent Hamas attack. The US's support of Israel is literally helping to fund Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people.
@9G6MWJK7mos7MO
I think it is horrific and no one is doing anything about it.
@9G6F8GL7mos7MO
I think what is happening is terrible
@9G6BJSH7mos7MO
Its incredibly important to maintain knowledge about such awful conflicts even across the world
@9G67FT27mos7MO
I think it is wrong for these people to die because of their religion
@9G6KJSYProgressive 7mos7MO
I think HAMAS is terrible organization and does not represent Islam in any way
@9G6H35V7mos7MO
covers the death toll of innocent people
@9G65SQR7mos7MO
I think its very sad and needs to be fixed.
@9G62P8D7mos7MO
I dont fully understand the whole Israel-Hamas things, other than Israel seems to need help.
@9G6C5JJ7mos7MO
It is heartbreaking and an act of terrorism against Jews
@9G66K97Peace and Freedom7mos7MO
I think that it is wrong what Hamas is doing to israelis and that israel is right
@9G62P2C7mos7MO
I think the US should help Israel.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
We already are and that's the problem. We are currently funding the genocide of the Palestinian people.
@9G67XVM7mos7MO
Israel is in the right to defend their sovereignty and end the terrorist threat to them once and for all.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
Israel is committing war crimes against the people of Palestine in their efforts of colonial genocide.
I think it's horrible. I think both sides are very much in the wrong
@9G6LLM67mos7MO
Israel must be protected and its people should not be going through what is happening right now.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
And what about the people of Palestine..?
@9G6D3VV7mos7MO
I think that the terrorists should be eliminated.
@9G6KWKG7mos7MO
The human cost of war is always too high to advance nationalist aims
@9G696KT7mos7MO
It seems the most important since people are dieing.
@9G685L67mos7MO
As the war intensifies, more people start dying even if they aren't in the war which is sad because they still have time in their lives to do what they want before they won't be able to anymore.
