Thank you.
I'm wearying of Star Traveler's oft repeated message about how much the Israeli's love the Gaza residents. Yeah, yeah, yeah... we know it.
They have to say it, you know. They are under the gun not just from the Arab world, but the European world, the UN world, the US Democrats world... every leftist scumbag in the world needs to hear the Israeli's kowtow to the principle that the Gaza residents aren't 90% scumbag terrorist sympathizers.
Which they are.
Star Traveler knows it. We all know it.
So yeah, we get it. The IDF respects Gaza civilians. Blah, blah, blah. We get it.
You said ... “So yeah, we get it. The IDF respects Gaza civilians.”
There would be nothing more to say if everyone did get it like you say. But instead, I see many saying things that Israel itself never says or what they want the world to know.
Israel does NOT want the world to think or believe that Israel views “The people of Gaza are Hamas” ... :-) ...
IF ONLY everyone did get it, as you say ...
To be absolutely accurate, Israel has an abiding respect for the ability of the European nations to mount loud and long protests that favor the Israeli enemies getting their asses kicked.
So, Israel must create the appearance of protecting the populace while kicking as much infrastructure ass and killing as many nonuniformed combatants as possible. One could argue Star Traveler is an IDF troll putting out the IDF talking points. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt though.
But cynic that I am, I will believe that the IDF is quickly walking a fine line to destroy as much and kill as many as they can before the Euros start whining for an end.
