Right now, civilians don't have a choice to leave the warzone. That's intentional thaks to Hamas, Netanyahu, Egypt, Jordan, etc.
IDC if someone wants to die for dirt. But at least let people who want to save their children, their families, and themselves to exit to safety.
I'm NOT saying force people who want to stay in a warzone over land to leave. I am saying FFS let the ones who want to leave get out. Which they currently can't do.
Those countries have refused to take in the refugees for decades. They intentionally wanted them there and suffering. The refusal to take them isn't new, and it isn't all of a sudden because of the bombing.
It's really simple, my guy. Just let people who want to leave the warzone do just that. Debate and argue the grey area later after the civilians are safe.
If you disagree, you're literally saying that civilians should have to stay and die in a warzone, for what I can only guess is some political agenda of yours?
Once again, the continuous bombing is a military choice by Israel. It's because they don't want to fight on the ground and value Palestinian civilian lives infinitely less than they value the lives of their own soldiers.
If that's what you got from what I said then you're deliberately being obtuse. Even if you evacuate 1.5 million civilians to Egypt what do you do with the 500k that stay? Are they alright to kill because they chose to remain in their homes?
I've left my home country due to the deteriorating situation from events indirectly caused by this conflict so I guess that's my "agenda". I am against the collective displacement AND collective punishment of Palestinians and the further destabilization of the region as a sick form of "revenge".
You're trying to argue other issues. They distract from a clear, easy question. I suspect I know why you're trying to avoid the question.
Either you think civilians who want to leave a warzone should be able to, or you don't.
You can try and muddy this very simple question with "what about those who stay", or whether bombing the people who just targeted and murdered over a thousand civilians is legitimate or not, or whether their collective punishment is a war crime, even. I personally believe that it is absolutely a warcrime for Israel to inflict collective punishment... it doesn't matter with respect to the one simple question: should civilians who want to leave be able to.
Debating all that is a mess and already happening in lots of threads and forums everywhere. And should be in another thread.
All I've claimed is that civilians should be able to leave a warzone. Anyone arguing against that absolutely has an agenda and one that they're happy watching babies and civilians die for. Fuck them.
Yes, civilians who want to leave should be able to. Does that change the reality of the situation? Does that make Egyptians willing to take in 2 million refugees because Israel is breaking international law? Does that save the lives of those who stay? Does that eradicate Hamas? Does that resolve the conflict equitably?
Spare me with your "agenda" accusations.
bombing the people who just targeted and murdered over a thousand civilians is legitimate or not
Bombing over 2000 children (so far) is not morally ambiguous. It's never justified. There are other means. If you don't believe that is the case then I urge you to reassess how you value the lives on each side of this conflict.
