    At the end of the article they point out that they don’t know how many of the reported casualties on the Palestinian side are Hamas fighters, but at the same time don’t do the same with the Israelian casualties, and I believe around 300 were IDF soldiers.

    Apart from that I think at least they are reasonable and also seem to be critical to their government’s handling of the crisis.

    And it is saddening what is happening in the West bank with the silent approval of authorities and army, that’s called oppression and racism and isn’t a good start for a much needed peaceful process.

      There are no Hamas on the West bank I’m told. They are restricted to Gaza and that’s why it was an open air prison. These are just Palestinians that live and work there, but are not connected to Gaza.

      Besides that, they moved all the real soldiers and reservists to the frontline and allowed among others, settlers to do the policing in the region with maybe 1 IDF person in charge when shit happens. I truly believe that’s the reason why we’re seeing this. It’s assholes driving around, looking for Palestinians torturing and killing them. Afterwards it’s always in self defense.
