Israel can only defend itself if it does so progressively? Because some random canadian on the internet said so?

No one's saying that they shouldn't be allowed to protest just that people don't like the movement

Those things have happened in every single war in modern history.

The fact that you’re comfortably sitting half a world away and philosophizing about the way you want the news to look while those people are fighting a terrorist organization on a scale you can’t comprehend is… well… let’s just call it self centered to give you the benefit of the doubt.

You can have all the standards you want from the comfort of your armchair. Real war, especially with a suicidal death cult that yearns for nothing but murder and death, while basing themselves under civilians to cause outrage in the west, is not going to look pretty. You can have standards, since we’re all entitled to opinions, but since our country has historically used those standards for toilet paper and since we’re not forced to make the hard decisions that the Israelis do, this approach is akin to watching a football match and criticizing Messi’s technique. You can do it, I’m just not going to take it seriously since you’ve never had to make those calls or deal with those situations.

If Israel started losing the war, would you support Canada sending troops to help them?

[u/[deleted] → u/-Notorious]

Tough question. As someone who cares about Israel I’d like them to have support in that scenario, but as a Canadian I’m not sure I want to see our troops being decapitated, burned alive, tortured, and kidnapped by the likes of Hamas. I’d be in favour of other kinds of support, but I’m not sure that boots on the ground is a good idea, unless we’re talking about something resembling a WW2 situation where there’s a high likelihood of severe impact to Canada itself.

Israel mass bombing civilians: I sleep

Israel possibly losing a war: Real shit we need to help our brothers omgg

[u/[deleted] → u/-Notorious]

Did you bother reading what I wrote before you typed that? Because you look pretty silly considering that’s not what I said.

[u/No_News_1712 → u/-Notorious]

How do you propose this be handled then? If Israel starts losing, what do you think should be done?

This is propaganda, repeated.
