Israeli air strikes on a so-called "humanitarian zone" in southern Gaza's al-Mawasi killed at least 40 people on Tuesday, according to health authorities in the enclave.

The strikes targeted at least 20 tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in the coastal area near the city of Khan Younis.

Eyewitnesses told AFP that at least five rockets fell in the area, with emergency services saying the strikes created craters up to nine metres deep.

There's proof it's a mistake? Also, misrepresenting my argument. It's getting more and more clear what's going on here...

Also, I think you meant to reply to me, not yourself?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (5 children)

Again, what is your argument?

[–] [email protected] -5 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Ignoring your comment since you're misrepresenting my argument. No need to address anything you said, this is simply an attempt to reframe my concern that criticism of Hamas is met with whataboutism.

Just look at the soap box this user takes advantage of when I say no one should use human shields. "Yea Hamas does it, but Israel???"

I'm really done with you now, you are simply wasting my time trying to distract from discussion.

That's really it? I thought it would actually be something important. I actually even agreed with your criticism of Hamas. Like, it's been needless to say that criticism of Hamas has been had already, since way before this thread. Since October 7th even. Your time is being wasted because you wasted it yourself.

Mmk

Edit: downplaying the quite evident problem here where if you are critical of Hamas your argument is shut down with whataboutism and accusations of justifying genocide.

I'm saying that you are bringing back a discussion had many times over and trying to claim that no one has had it. It's redundant. The article is about an action by Israel, of course the discussion is gonna be about that action.

False, this is reframing my argument again.

Changing my argument for your sake is not civil discussion.
