    If the Hamas would officially surrender, continuing the killing would be a heavy war crime (not that Israels government cares though) however I would hope the rest of the world would care more.

      To summarise, Hamas is at fault because they’re not surrendering to be killed, allowing Israel to mulch the Palestinians so fast that the international community miiight turn against them where the ongoing genocide and thousands of gleefully documented warcrimes haven’t?

      Does this seem like a reasonable assignment of blame or viable solution to the issue to you?

        The Hamas had plenty opportunities to surrender. And even if they do now they would get a better situation.

        I can’t see into the future, but I think that would be the best option.

        However this is a war about religion, and won’t end until one gives up fully. I am sure once Gaza is defeated the Hamas will switch to guerilla tactics in order to cause as much harm as possible.

          Surrendering to those genociding your people so that they can genocide you more easily isn’t a better solution.

          Why are you blaming the victims of a genocide rather than calling for Israel to stop committing the genocide and surrender to the Hague? Israel are the ones with the actual ability to stop this, and they’re the ones committing orders of magnitude more atrocities.

            First of all calling it a genocide is debatable.

            Secondly, while the people are victims, the Hamas is not. If the Hamas would have cared for their people, they would have done so years ago. Right now they are fucked. Because I don’t think neathu ie backing down.
