    “After the massacre, it was imperative to strike at Hamas with all our might, even at the cost of civilian casualties,” wrote Nahum Barnea, a columnist for centrist newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth. But “the damage — in military casualties, Israel’s international standing and civilian casualties — is growing worse. Hamas is to blame, but Israel is responsible.”

    Sherwin Pomerantz, who runs an economic consulting group, wrote in the conservative Jerusalem Post: “What was a just war two years ago is now an unjust war and must be ended.”

    Still don’t have to hand it to them (unless it is a live grenade with the pin pulled). They’ve realized they’re in the endgame and this is attempting to change the historical record from “and they cracked jokes about it” to “look at the horrible tragedy Khamas forced them to inflict upon Gaza.”

    The performative nonsense mentioned in that article would be hilarious if a genocide hadn’t been going on for the last two years; ‘professors send a message to Netanyahu about remembering what they’d experienced during the holocaust and to prevent cruelty to civilians’, you cannot…you CANNOT…you CANNOT be serious. The cruelty you should’ve been fighting was happening before October 7th, October 7th and beyond was all that cruelty ramped up to 100.

    Oh and the icing on the trash: the military are distributing photos supposedly showing Hamas surrounded with food, claiming there’s food and Hamas is taking it all; you utter scum killed Sinwar and found on him no more than mentos, and when you conducted an autopsy of him, you were more than excited to come out to gleefully proclaim that he’d been starving, a news your people would celebrate because they revel in others’ misery, but news that cemented him as a hero to people around the world; how, if Hamas had all this food, did the reigning leader starve? How did the guy actually running Hamas actually go without food? Your countrymen might be stupid enough to fall for this but you’re not going to fool people who aren’t zionists.

    There’s a link to an article where the UK claims they’ll recognize Palestine in September unless Israel stops the war; this tells me that either: a) they’re lying and it won’t happen, or b) Israel is intending on ending this war before then, and probably try to claim the moral victory by pretending they ended the war for humane reasons.

  • The news on Israel’s main TV channel had just finished a segment on how hunger in Gaza is portrayed around the world when the anchor looked up and said: “Maybe it’s finally time to acknowledge that this isn’t a public relations failure, but a moral one.”

    aWW wOw hE fInAllY fOuNd tHe cOuRaGe tO sPeaK AFTER TWO FUCKING YEARS OF THIS GENOCIDE powercry-2

    Some commentators are announcing a change of heart about the war, triggered when Hamas militants attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing 1,200 people and abducting 250. The subsequent Israeli offensive has killed nearly 60,000 people, according to the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry, and left much of the Palestinian territory in ruins.

    oh please… removed yourself for that repeating that atrocity propaganda shit

    The shift in Israeli sentiment is reflected in a pile-up of bad news: Hamas still holds hostages in Gaza and remains a military force, soldiers continue to die, Israelis abroad are shunned, even attacked, and now scenes of starving children are shown across global media.

    Boohoo - no one likes me cause I committed ethnic cleansing - being spit upon is like facing a pogrom

    There haven’t been any recent polls published in Israel related to the war. One in May showed 65% of Israelis unconcerned about humanitarian conditions in Gaza. But until this past week, little of the destruction and death there appeared in Israeli media. Now the issue of hunger dominates news coverage.

    Oh, you mean the genocidal conditions the {Zionist entity’s citizen} militarily imposed on and mocked the Gazans for being the victim of.

    “We are fighting a just war, a moral war, a war for our survival,” he said in a statement on Monday. “No country in the world would allow the continued rule in a neighboring territory of a terror group bent on its destruction that already stormed across its borders in a genocidal attack.”

    Goddamn it, Bloomberg - you know, one of these days, you shouldn’t be surprised when someone goes postal on your facilities, for giving Shaytanyahu the benefit of the doubt, after these days

    In general, hey, at least we know the tides are turning against the Zionist entity…

      Just this sentence alone should get the author the same treatment as Julius Streicher.

    With how much the article blames hamas for zionism’s actions, it’s clear that this article exists to act as toilet paper for wiping the zionist ass.

    Yair Lapid, head of Israel’s main opposition party, gave a fiery speech this week describing the war as a disaster and a failure and calling on Netanyahu to end it and eliminate Hamas through cooperation with regional powers.

    Dogshit opposition. The whole disaster is occurring using that “eliminate hamas” justification. Despite their government literally committing genocide, these dumbfuck liberals can’t even think to question the basic premises that the government sold them.

  • They aren’t questioning the morality of the war. The Zionist entity has made no major changes in how it conducts it’s genocide recently — it’s been openly immoral for the past 77 years. Anyone who has recently joined opposition to the entity isn’t doing it out of morality or decency. They just want to avoid consequences of their depraved ideals, and it is important that they receive no such forgiveness.
