    In what world does Israel show restraint, anyway? I don’t see the levelling of Gaza city as “restraint”.

    I don’t see the incarceration of 40% of Gaza’s male population as “restraint”.

    I don’t see Israel dropping more explosives on civilian population centers than the US did on Hiroshima as “restraint”.

    I don’t see the systematic apartheid system of the West bank as “restraint”.

    I don’t see the thousands of Israelis cheering as weapons declared illegal by the UN rain down on refugee camps as “restraint”.

    I don’t see the leaders of Israel declaring every last man, woman, child in Gaza animals as “restraint”.

    This is bullshit, through and through.

      It’s also very telling that they have marked 100% of the Gaza population as refugees. There are only about 2 million people in Gaza all together and that is the amount they are trying to send to Egypt. That means that this is just Israel pushing to completely erase Palestine.

      With white phosphorus and daily bombings on a city that has a population density greater than Chicago there doesn’t look like there’s any restraint only retribution.

      Israel telling civilians to follow evacuation orders to go to “safe areas” that they then bomb is just par for the course for what they plan on doing.
