How is it a war if one side can cut off the electricity, fuel and drinking water used by the other side ?
-
bad headline. this should read "Israel resumes executing child inmates in the worlds largest prison camp."
-
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The seven-day pause, which began on Nov. 24 and was extended twice, had allowed for the exchange of dozens of hostages held in Gaza for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and facilitated the entry of humanitarian aid into the shattered coastal strip.
At an emergency meeting in Amman, Jordan's King Abdullah on Thursday urged U.N. officials and international groups to pressure Israel to allow more aid into the beleaguered enclave, according to delegates.
When the ceasefire first came into effect a week ago, Israel was preparing to turn the focus of its operation to southern Gaza after its seven-week assault to the north.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, in Israel during his third visit to the Middle East since the war began, did not comment on the resumption of fighting as he headed for Dubai.
On Thursday, Blinken said he told Netanyahu Israel cannot repeat in south Gaza the massive civilian casualties and displacement of residents it inflicted in the north.
"We discussed the details of Israel's ongoing planning and I underscored the imperative for the United States that the massive loss of civilian life and displacement of the scale that we saw in northern Gaza not be repeated in the south," Blinken told reporters in Tel Aviv, adding the Israeli government had agreed.
The original article contains 811 words, the summary contains 214 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I get Israel's anxiety, literally being surrounded by nations that want to obliterate it from the face of the earth. Still, that doesn't justify war crimes.
-
Replace "Israel" with "Russia" in your comment. Oh, wow, now suddenly neighboring nations have reasons to want them obliterated from the earth?
-
Russia is not surrounded. They have friends along most of their borders or a sea in between.

a truce is a pause in warfare - peace is only achieved via surrender. in this particular war, it'll be only unconditional surrender - and it's obvious who's going to be surrendering to whom.
-
reminder there was a truce before the 7th of October attacks
-
Reminder that there was a 56 year occupation and a 75 year ethnic cleansing before the 7th of October attacks
-
Some more reminders to add:
- Reminder that a majority of Palestinian deaths since October 7th were not members of Hamas
- Reminder that hundreds have been murdered in the West Bank since October 7th even though "war" was only declared against Hamas who has no administration over the West Bank
- Reminder that a large swath of civilian deaths were children who had no say in the 2006 "election" of Hamas to administer the Gaza strip
-
-
-
Reminder that hundreds of Palestinians were murdered during the 9-year "truce" from 2014-2023. Not to mention the land stolen and the homes, farms, and crops destroyed in the West Bank during that period.
-
No there wasn't. Israel has never stopped committing acts of war against Gaza. There was a blockade in place and they never stopped doing strikes. To say there was a truce is fucking farcical.
-
Who the fuck cares. Fight back against colonizers

There's a reason that "don't negotiate with terrorists" is a good rule to follow
-
indeed it is, makes me wonder why any country still has any dealings with Israel at this point
-

-
Which side is taking hostages? Which side slaughtered, raped, and kidnapped civilians without even claiming they were going after military targets? Hint: not Israel. If you have the stomach, watch this uncensored Oct 7 footage (warning: blood, gore, and death,) and tell me the ones responding to this are the real terorists, and who has the moral high ground. Note how they shoot people trying to surrender and any civilians they happen to come across.
How does one get such a twisted worldview?

-
Your phrasing suggests that Hamas resumed the hostilities. Have you actually read the article?
-
Here's some information you may find helpful about how Hamas broke the truce yesterday with yet another genocidal terrorist attack: https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/shooting-attack-jerusalem-wounds-least-6-ambulance-service-2023-11-30/

That's just code for supporting genocide and totalitarianism. The only way to stop a terrorist movement is in fact to engage with it and deal with their grievances in good faith. You only fight them where it is necessary because every fight makes more recruits for their cause.
-
Too bad the grievances of these specific terrorists is that if you don't become muslim they'll kill you.
This isn't some fucking oppressed minority group just trying to be a good lil' bean and live their lives. They're radicals that want to genocide people and convert the world to islam by force and threat of death of you don't.
Do you think you should engage with domestic right wing US terrorism? To ask the christo-fascists why they are doing what they're doing and to please stop it? No, they're insidious because they will die believing they're 100% in the right and that you trying to prevent them from a full takeover is being "intolerant."
Fucking insane you people sit here defending the middle east's version of conservative Christian nationalism. Fuck all religious nutter butters, they're the crabs in a bucket trying to revert us to the middle ages so they can have their way with society.

Both sides got things they wanted. Seems like a successful negotiation to me.
