    Why hasn’t Hamas backed off?

    Huh it’s almost like there’s a war over some holy land or something 🤔

    As if these idiots were told their eternal afterlife was at stake and they better eliminate the “others” from their special coordinates or everyone will die a terrible gruesome death.

    So, yea… Wars require multiple parties, any of which can stop the killing. They won’t, because this is a holy war.

    Enjoy your afternoon, Ozma!

      What would Hamas backing off look like, exactly?

      Genocide, much like war requires 2 parties - the perpetrators and the victims. You seem to have the two confused.

        Hamas is not a victim! The population in Gaza is. A victim of their government and their government enemies, but Hamas is a terrorist organisation that has no intentions of stopping that war. Even at the cost of their own people.

            Right now? Probably almost nothing, except to accept defeat.

            But we at a decades old conflict.

              Now can you explain why Hamas is at fault for not laying down to get genocided when doing so will only let Israel wipe out Palestine faster?

              While you’re at it, you can explain how the age of the conflict changes that in any way.

                If the Hamas would officially surrender, continuing the killing would be a heavy war crime (not that Israels government cares though) however I would hope the rest of the world would care more.

                  To summarise, Hamas is at fault because they’re not surrendering to be killed, allowing Israel to mulch the Palestinians so fast that the international community miiight turn against them where the ongoing genocide and thousands of gleefully documented warcrimes haven’t?

                  Does this seem like a reasonable assignment of blame or viable solution to the issue to you?

                    The Hamas had plenty opportunities to surrender. And even if they do now they would get a better situation.

                    I can’t see into the future, but I think that would be the best option.

                    However this is a war about religion, and won’t end until one gives up fully. I am sure once Gaza is defeated the Hamas will switch to guerilla tactics in order to cause as much harm as possible.

      Gaza isn’t anywhere near said special coordinates bruh. Even then it’s not their most special coordinate.

      I could be wrong but maybe this has something to do with being systematically removed from their homes and land and forced into a tiny encampment to live out the rest of your life as a refugee.

      almost like some sort of concentration of the population to ease extermination
