    When has blowing up a religious building served to reduce the intensity of conflict?

      Probably never. Cutting of breasts of raped women and playing with that did probably also not help (source). Idiots everywhere.

        This is debunked fake news without evidence. Stop linking your shitty israeli propaganda sites.

          Hamas filmed their own crimes against civilians. Hamas needs to be annihilated immediately without any trace left. That said, I don’t trust Israel to do that. Entire world needs to unite and send international forces to Gaza.

        Unfortunately many of the government presented eyewitness accounts have been thoroughly debunked. While I do not doubt that rape occurred, it looks like the Israeli government attempted to greatly exaggerate the events. This includes conflating civilian and military deaths; falsely claiming 40 babies were beheaded (only one was killed); falsely claiming children were staked together and burned alive; and more.

        What’s really flabbergasting to me is the reality was bad enough. 900 civilians killed. Grenades thrown into shelters. Cases of burning individual people to death. Cases of rape and murder. Cases of torturing people before killing them.

        They didn’t need to lie. But they did anyways and now it’s really hard to trust anything the Israeli government puts out.
