@palestine @israel @bouriquet agreed - but I think the IDF & Netanyahu’s war cabinet did consider the consequences of indiscriminate bombing and attacks & decided they’d continue lying and when that stops working, it doesn’t matter - buried in news cycle and on to the next attack

Maximizing casualties is still something very different than not minimizing them.
But indeed I've the same impression from the very beginning that they are maximizing casualties wherever possible -- whenever the "very beginning" might be dated,

Quds News: According to Axios, citing a U.S. administration official, the American hostages unit in Israel assisted in the release of the 4 Israeli captives in Gaza.

Footage published by an Israeli occupation soldier confirms Israel's use of the American temporary pier in central Gaza during its offensive operations in the Al-Nuseirat refugee camp.

Meaning that the Hamas detains 100 hostages (and this is super wrong), and the 9.000 (and this is super wrong)

@Sherifazuhur @palestine @israel people have really bought the framing of Hamas as a military force rather than understanding it's a political movement that sometimes engages in armed action.
