Hello everyone! Today we’re talking about the pro-Palestinian anti-war encampment protests which have begun in college campuses around the country, and the effectiveness of such live-in protests.

    So is the best way to do that is to bomb and kill 35,000 women and children, in your opinion? Can’t think of any better way that could be done?

      You do know that a lot of those 35K are a lot of terrorists, or freedom figthers or militants, or whatever you want to call them, right?

      The best way to do it is to be very careful to hit as less civilians as possible with the situation that Hammas deliberately created. Theres a reason IDF invented the roof knocking technique.

        Except in real life the majority of this number are civilians. We know at least two thirds are civilians, and at least one third of this number are children.

        So I’ll ask you, again, is the best way to “fight terrorism” or whatever to bomb and kill 35,000 women and children, in your opinion?

          YOU know that at least two thirds are children. I dont know that. In fact I know that at least 15k hammas members were killed. Because we know that all northern gaza and central gaza hammas brigades were obliterated. So someone is making up numbers. We also have thousands of videos of confirmed militants with weapons blowing up. So again something doesn’t add up with the 35k civilians killed.

          The way to fight terrorism in my opinion is to bomb the terrorist organization’s members to smithereens wherever they are, to catch as some them alive to get more intelligence of them. And with all that said to minimize as much as possible collateral damage, like make thousands of phone calls a day to civilians to warn them to run away. To knock the roofs of buildings to warn them, to let them pass to safe zones while screening them with technology. To have a robust intelligence system that identifies civilians and filters them out as much as possible.

          All of this is already happening and should happen more.

          This is war against the most brutal terrorist organization in the world. An organization that deliberately hides among civilians. And thus its going to be brutal. But necessary.

          Hopefully no more civilians die and Sinwar and all his accomplices end up in pieces. And all the hostages are returned alive and well. (We know most of them are already dead)
