I just got a text from a friend saying that his 9 month old cousin, the baby's mom, uncles and their kids were all killed in the latest bombings.
How messed up is it to bomb starving people during their holiest month of the year. Imagine the outrage if this happened to people during Christmas or Hanukkah.

F*** Netanyahu, Trump, and the Israeli terrorist government

At least October 7th wasn't a Jewish holiday, right?
 
Release the Hostages and the bombings will stop. Doesn't mean I don't have sympathy for all the innocent victims.

They were releasing the hostages at part of the ceasefire agreement, but Israel has already violated it over 1500 times. Plus, Israel has taken hundred more hostages and has stopped all food aid into Gaza.

What does that have to do with anything? Do you have a contract where you have to mention October 7th in every post you make?

Because you continue to seem wholly unconcerned about the reason for this war. The reason being that, like your friends, many Israelis lost their friends and family members on October 7th but, hey, it wasn't a Jewish holiday so apparently the fighting wasn't in bad taste.

The irony - it is the religion, on which the holidays are based, that are the reason Palestinians are in this situation.

WTF are you talking about? Your schtick is getting old
 
Here's hoping the parties can at least resolve quickly the issues which caused the end of the cease fire.

I appreciate RaiGuy's first(?) or second hand perspective on this dispute even though I may not agree with it 100%.
 


“… Israel said its forces were moving into a key corridor that bisects the Gaza Strip across its center line, aiming to partly split the northern and southern halves of the territory. It said other forces would be positioned in the south and ready to operate in Gaza.

The troop movements further roll back gains Hamas made under a two-month cease-fire and are part of a strategy of gradually ramping up pressure on the U.S.-designated terrorist group. They came as Egypt floated a proposal for Hamas to release a limited number of hostages in exchange for an immediate halt to the strikes.

Arab mediators said the proposal, which was presented to Israel and Hamas late Tuesday, called for the return of 21-year old American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander along with the bodies of four other U.S. hostages in exchange for a cease-fire that would last at least a month and the commencement of negotiations to end the war.

Israel and Hamas hadn’t responded to the proposal. The Israeli prime minister’s office declined to comment, but Israel and the U.S. rejected a similar offer from Hamas last week. Hamas didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. Neither side has negotiators actively in Cairo. …”
