Hamas’s Qassam Brigades has threatened to execute Israeli captives if Israel continues to bombard and kill civilians in Gaza.

“Any targeting of innocent civilians without warning will be met regretfully by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution,” said Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas’ Qassam Brigades.

“We regret this decision but we hold the Zionist enemy and their leadership the responsibility for this,” he said.

    The Jews were genocided. They don’t want to genocide others

    And muslims were killed on mass as part of that same genocide, so that means they physical cant be involved in a genocide of their own right?

    20% of the state of Israel is Palestinian/arab, with full citizenship and rights.

    Can you read your own wikipedia article?

    While most Arabs remaining in Israel were granted citizenship, they were subject to martial law in the early years of the state.[32][33] Zionism had given little serious thought as to how to integrate Arabs, and according to Ian Lustick subsequent policies were 'implemented by a rigorous regime of military rule that dominated what remained of the Arab population in territory ruled by Israel, enabling the state to expropriate most Arab-owned land, severely limit its access to investment capital and employment opportunity, and eliminate virtually all opportunities to use citizenship as a vehicle for gaining political influence.

    Or can we talk about how whats going on in Israel is recognised as apartheid?

    If I my country theoretically started a losing war with our neighbor and then refused to make peace when we lost,

    You people are physically incapable of having a good faith thought on this issue. The Palestinians didnt “start a war with their neighbour” They had their land taken from them by the west so they could replace their Jewish populations.

    The fact that you would wish such ills on others for recognizing this, that you look at this conflict in such a reductive way, is telling of your character.

    Lmao cope.

      This seems incoherent, I don’t follow. What are you trying to say?

      Can you read your own wikipedia article?

      I did read the article, you seem to have difficulty with verb tenses. That was in the past. At present Arab Israelis have the same legal citizen rights as Jewish Israelis.

      Thanks for the link, I will watch that when I get the chance.

      “You people,” classy. What people are you including me among in order to dismiss my opinion? Spell it out for me.

      This conflict is a long and winding road, but based on my understanding that’s exactly what happened. Palestinians didn’t like the UN partition plan so they resorted to violence and attacked their Jewish neighbors, triggering the Arab-Israeli War of 1948:

      The United Nations resolution sparked conflict between Jewish and Arab groups within Palestine. Fighting began with attacks by irregular bands of Palestinian Arabs attached to local units of the Arab Liberation Army composed of volunteers from Palestine and neighboring Arab countries. These groups launched their attacks against Jewish cities, settlements, and armed forces. The Jewish forces were composed of the Haganah, the underground militia of the Jewish community in Palestine, and two small irregular groups, the Irgun, and LEHI. The goal of the Arabs was initially to block the Partition Resolution and to prevent the establishment of the Jewish state. The Jews, on the other hand, hoped to gain control over the territory allotted to them under the Partition Plan.

      Lmao cope.

      Grow up.

        You’re arguing Jewish people would perpetrate genocide simply because Jewish people on the past were victims (despite all the evidence that they are currently commiting a genocide) so I took that same logic and applied it to the Muslims of palestine.

        It’s in the past

        Jfc. I’m guessing you’re also one those people that says “why do we have lgbt/womens/black rights? You already have all your rights?”

        You people as in people who go out of their way to disregard reality to simp for a religious apartheid ethno state that is commiting genocide.

        Again, you’re phrasing it as if Israel and palestine had coexistence as neighbours then palestine decided to attack out of no where. The UN (or more specifically the British) decided they were just going to take the Palestinians land to make a country of their own in an act of blatant colonialism. So they were responding to being invaded.
