Topic: As the IDF prepares a full land assault on Gaza

Do you think it is reasonable for a country's full army to attack a tiny strip of land filled with impoverished people with no defense?

And I do not mean Hamas. Most Palestinians are just normal people living their lives who do not want war or terrorism.

Yes. They need to stand up to those uppity Palestinians.

The Palestinians are a poor, at-risk group.

Don't understand your question. The war isn't against the Palestinian people. It is against Hamas (who you oddly excluded).

Fine, but the casualties will be citizens.

What's vitally important is that America stands with Israel for as long as it takes.

Why? Isn't America's unwavering support for Israel based on the Christian belief that they are God's chosen?

Yes. When Zionism is accomplished, Christ will return and the Rapture can begin.

I doubt that. Are there biblical verses to support that?

Could you please post those verses for us laypeople?

Of course! I'm a little busy now preparing for an exorcism a week on Thursday but I'll post them as soon as I get a free moment.

No, it is not fair on them at all. Of course it isn't. Whose fault is it that they are probably going to die by their hundreds and thousands though? Is it entirely Israel's fault? Or is it also because Hamas are cowering behind them instead of protecting them?

You have got to understand something about about Hamas:
1) They fucking HATE the Jews.
2) They have had an enormous influence over the Palestinians over the last few decades, to the point where virtually the entire population has been indoctrinated into this same terrible belief system.

Perhaps the best way to illustrate this is by showing you this transcript of a kids' TV show from 2014:

[guy dressed in bee costume] ... and when the Jews come to take it and throw it.
[10 year old girl] That's right, if the neighbours are Jewish...
[bee guy] He should beat them up.
[10 year old girl] If his neighbours are Jewish or Zionist, that goes without saying. And they shoot the Jews, right?
[8 year old girl] Right.
[10 year old] You want to be like him? Allah willing, when you grow up?
[8 year old] I will shoot the Jews.
[10 year old] All of them?
[8 year old] Yes.
[10 year old] Good.

The kids who watched this nearly a decade ago are now in the middle of this war today. Do you realise what a paradigm shift most Palestinians would have to go through to trust the word of a Jew - to take the decision to leave their homes and get out of harm's way, rather than standing by Hamas - the only source of truth they have ever known?

Hamas knows this very well, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal of wiping Jews from the face of the earth.

THIS is the nature of the enemy Israel are fighting. Israel's choice is either to risk heavy collateral damage, or face their own extinction. In chess this is called zugzwang - every outcome is horrible, unthinkable.

most palestinians probably do not need a man in a bee suit telling them to hate Jews when the state makes that so very easy

So you think it's ok to indoctrinate 8 year olds to shoot people. Okay then.
