    The Jerusalem Post had verified photos confirming the beheading reporting. That's what I initially sent you. This is a first hand account from a civilian witness report by CBS.

    To be clear: you're not "defending the colonized" by framing an authoritarian paramilitary organization (that harms Palestinians too btw) as some kind of "freedom fighters." You're doing the *exact* opposite of that. If you can't see that, you're a lost cause.

    I'm also a fucken SocDem, why would I support/defend either the Israeli government or Hamas? Both their ideologies are completely detached from what I believe in. You're the one doing mental gymnastics here.

    My B, I had a bunch of tabs open and opened the article the tweet linked and didn't find anything in there and then went to the wrong tab when I went to look back at the tweet itself.

    You happen to have a link to that CBS article quoted? I promise I'm not trying to be difficult on purpose, just want to get the facts as straight as possible lol

    Sure, the CBS article is here.

    Also, I know you asked if Hamas intentionally targeted civilians earlier, this was just reported right now.

    you speak from your comfy perspective. You have not been in a f---ing open air prison for years. You havent been bombed, tortured, exiled, etc. I personally would never k--- anyone because I have a comfy life too, but how can we just ignore the context here? How can you ask them just to behave quietly after all these decades? The atrocities commited by Israel are Nazi-like and the proof is so so so clear in our faces, that choosing to ignore it its just malicious. You were very quick to defend Ukraine no matter what, i must recall, dismissing any Russian information or motives but now suddenly the right thing to do is to be on the middle ground? C'mon mate.

    My scorching hot take (apparently for y’all) is that war crimes are bad regardless who commits them & who they are committed against. That is a very basic principled stance to have. Also, the big assumption you keep making here is that Palestinians as a whole support Hamas & the atrocities they’ve committed. That is a very big assumption that needs a lot of supporting evidence which I have not seen anywhere.

    I also don’t think Ukraine is at all equivalent to what’s happening in Israel-Palestine. Like who would Ukraine even be in that comparison? Hamas? You’re comparing apples to oranges.

    Re: July 2023 poll

    -62% of Gazans supported Hamas maintaining a ceasefire with Israel
    -50% of Gazans agreed with the following proposal: “Hamas should stop calling for Israel’s destruction, and instead accept a permanent two-state solution based on the 1967 borders.”
    -70% of Gazans support the Palestinian Authority taking over administrative & security duties from Hamas in the Gaza Strip

    Hey…but what do I know right?

    shouldn't you be in the eminem section removing black people from his features like the f---ing weirdo virgin you are? This is a serious thread. It's not like how your mom won't let you leave the basement and cuts off your wifi as much as you want it to be
