Her grandfather, who's survived. That's what this is all about: the only way countries like Israel and those who support them (so most of the Western governmenrs) can do these things is by a complete dehumanization of the people they kill. Sound familiar?
flossdaily@reddit
Maybe Lebanon's Hezbollah shouldn't have started the war?
EconomistStreet5295@reddit
Let’s kill thousands of civilians in response right?
flossdaily@reddit
Israel takes more steroids to avoid civilian casualties during strikes than any other military on earth.
Gubbinso@reddit
Got any sources to back up that claim? Any evidence?
flossdaily@reddit
Can you name any other army on earth that calls up the civilians in the buildings they are going to bomb ahead of time? Can you name any other army that has sent tens of millions of calls and texts to facilitate the evacuation of civilians of an enemy nation? Vaccinated their kids during a war? Fed the entire population of the enemy that attacked them?
Gubbinso@reddit
Do you really think that's unique to the IDF? I mean it's one thing to be surprised that the IDF do the bare minimum to comply with International Humanitarian Law, it's idiotic to think NO other army in the world complies.
https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/api-1977/article-57
So doing what International Law outlines are the responsibilities of an occupying power? Countless of states have done that, it's their responsibility. That is not unique to Israel either. Also, the majority of aid doesn't come from Israel, it comes from international humanitarian aid organisations. All of that is covered in articles 55,56, 59 & 60 of the Fourth Geneva Convention.

Except Israel hadn't occupied Gaza for 18 years at that point.
Gubbinso@reddit
Gaza was still occupied after the "disengagement". They still had total control of Gaza's airspace, coastline and borders. Both the ICJ and UN ruled that the disengagement wasn't the end of Israel's occupation of Gaza. Only Israel argues it stopped occupying. You really don't know much about what you're talking about, do you?
party_core_@reddit
Imagine posting that and thinking you sound like a good person
flossdaily@reddit
Ah, I think the part you're not understanding is that Hamas and Hezbollah are using civilian buildings for military purposes.
These are legitimate military targets under international law. The evil of making them targets is entirely on the terrorist organizations that have tried to use the residents as human shields.
And the other half of the equation is that Israel's enemies are deliberately targeting Israeli civilians, and would never give Israeli civilians a heads up to get out the way.
party_core_@reddit
Ah, that old canard

Israel is responsible for 84 of the 129 journalist killings in 2025. It has killed more journalists than any other government since the Committee to Protect Journalists began collecting records in 1992.
Champagne_of_piss@reddit
Journalism is terrorism because it robs Israel of its sacred right to control the narrative.

Kids' knees are HAMAS
uncleawesome@reddit
I don't know where you got that idea, but it's not true at all.
slippery_hemorrhoids@reddit
So they makes it OK to bomb kids
flossdaily@reddit
Kids die in all wars in both sides. So, blame the side that started the war.
Prosthemadera@reddit
So Israel can kill as many children as they want and they are never at fault because "Hezbollah started it". Convenient.
But also literally kindergarten logic.
Weird how Israel never starts anything. It's always everyone else. Again, very convenient for Israel. Israel has killed more people than Hamas and Hezbollah combined but it's cool, the people flattening Gaza and invading Lebanon have no personal responsibility, they're all controlled by Hamas and Hezbollah.
Oh please. You would never say the same thing about Israeli children. You would never say this about October 23. You would never say "this is war, kids die on both sides" in response to someone saying Hamas is bad.
flossdaily@reddit
Israel wants to kill zero children.
Israel can't defend itself from terrorists who surround themselves with children as human shields without, sadly, hitting some of those children in the process, despite taking every possible measure to avoid it.
slippery_hemorrhoids@reddit
So.. it's ok then.
Blame any side involved, not one for all atrocities.
flossdaily@reddit
Not at all. It's just an inevitably of war.
Prosthemadera@reddit
You should let the parents of the October 23 victims know that their deaths is just an inevitably of war. Kids die in war, you said it.
flossdaily@reddit
There wasn't a war before Oct 7th. The killing of those victims was an act of terrorism that started a war.
Israel tries to avoid civilian casualties. Hamas and Hezbollah try to maximize civilian casualties.
slippery_hemorrhoids@reddit
Except Israel has the capabilities to target specific targets to avoid killing children as much as possible.
But they instead continue to target civilians and press. Israel has openly targeted noncombatants, repeatedly. They're no better than hezbollah.
flossdaily@reddit
No. Israel doesn't have magic weapons that can only hurt bad people.
They have weapons and intel that can reduce the chances of hurting non-combatants.
Israel frequently calls and texts civilians and has them evacuate before air strikes. Let me know if you can find a single example of any of Israel's enemies doing that.
this-aint-Lisp@reddit
Well I guess you are OK then with Iran lobbing ballistic missiles at Israel.
flossdaily@reddit
I'm not okay with anyone attacking Israel. It's a liberal democracy that just wants to be left alone.
slippery_hemorrhoids@reddit
By "to be left alone" you mean allow its citizens to forcefully remove Palestinians from their lands and homes, by force, murder, rape, and torture as an acceptable practice.
Right?
this-aint-Lisp@reddit
Iran has a right to defend itself when attacked.
Haywoodjablowme1029@reddit
Well that makes everything ok then. No problem at all.
Fucking stupid.
slippery_hemorrhoids@reddit
I wrote target, not magic don't-hurt-civilian bombs.
Instead, they deliberately target civilians or noncombatants.
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/lebanons-hezbollah-warns-residents-israels-north-evacuate-2026-03-07/
Meanwhile, Israel continues to target funerals, humanitarian aid distribution lines, members of the press, while IDF commanders have claimed IDF raping civilians or prisoners is legitimate.
So, to you, it's ok.

Yes.
LEFT4Sp00ning@reddit
Oh yeah, let's just expel over 1 million people from South Lebanon and take over 10% of Lebanese territory while committing war crimes on a daily basis because Hezbollah attacked us for starting a war with Iran. Totally a reasonable action to take that will definitely not build further generational resentment against the state of Israel
flossdaily@reddit
Lebanon had decades (and orders from the UN) to remove hezbollah terrorists from the south. They failed to do so, and Israel paid the price when hezbollah started a war on Oct 8, 2023.
Now Israel is doing what any other country would do.
LEFT4Sp00ning@reddit
Shit, any other country would perform genocide in Gaza, war against Iran and expanding occupied areas in Syria and Lebanon while also expanding settlements in the West Bank? Completely american dumbfuck brainrot on full display, congrats on the courage to put it all out there.
I dunno man, the only other country I see doing anything like that is the US by paying for all of this shit
flossdaily@reddit
Believing a genocide has occurred in spite of all the evidence to the contrary is an obscene double standard applied only to Israel.
IAMADon@reddit
Of course everyone believes there's a genocide in spite of there being zero evidence to the contrary.
Israel started the 1967 war and kept Palestine under occupation which, according to international law, is a continuation of that armed conflict which gives Palestinians the right to self defense against Israel. So, to use your words:
4g-identity@reddit

It's utterly pathetic to see Americans bend over backwards to defend Israel and all its sick ideology this way, a country that funds and positions politicians like Trump to bleed their own country dry and run it into the ground, the one they were born in and grew up in.

You're talking about breaking ceasefires? Irony it seems has missed you completely
NotActuallyIraqi@reddit
They didn’t. Israel had invaded Lebanon and occupied the land, which created Hizbullah in the first place. Israel bombed Lebanon weekly for years even before October 7. They were illegally occupying the Shebaa farms, which caused the flare up in 2023 and beyond. Israel has broken the ceasefire repeatedly. If anyone started the war it was Israel.
Future-Excuse6167@reddit
The whole world is not jumping anymore. Israel tried to complain about Iran's cluster munitions and the best the world could muster was a resigned LOL.

Yeah, the world hating the Jews is nothing new. It wasn't right under the Nazis, it's not right today. But look at all the Jew-haters who are having a blast.
Champagne_of_piss@reddit
When you claim that Israel represents all jews, you make the entirety of Jewish people responsible for the actions of Israel.
The Jewish people as a whole are not responsible for the actions of Israel.
In fact that's antisemitic as fuck
ForskinEskimo@reddit
When you have consistent 80% plus support from all forms of surveys of all kinds of Jewish groups saying they support Israel’s “right to exist” (a nation founded and executed on the principles of ethnic supremacy as an apartheid ethnostate) then ya, it does represent effectively the near entirety of Jewish people. Why are we coy about calling a spade a spade?
If 80% of Germans supported a 4th Reich we’d have done Dresden 2.0 in a heartbeat and there would be no talks about “Germany doesn’t represent all Germanic people”.
Prosthemadera@reddit
"all kinds of Jewish groups". Can you be more vague?
Supporting Israel's right to exist isn't even the question here but to people like you it's all the same thing.
Your argument is that 80% of Jews "support: the equivalent of the 4th Reich today so you're openly admitting you want to kill Jews by bombing Jerusalem or Tel Aviv?
Yikes.
80% of Jews don't support a 4th Reich so you're using fake numbers to justify your desires.
Also, you don't commit a genocide simply because they "support" something (again very vague of you). They need to actually do something before you can attack them. Many Israelis have horrible views but killing them for it is using the same reasoning Israel is using to justify the deaths of Palestinians ("they support Hamas").
ForskinEskimo@reddit
Here are your all kinds of Jewish groups:
So in the US support sweeps at over 80% easily, what about globally?
Institute for Jewish Policy Research; UK Jews, over 80% support Israel’s existence
Executive council for Australian Jewry (what a name); 80%+ support Israel’s existence
Environics institute (and Jewish community studies); 80%+ show attachment, support, and important part of their identity is Israel’s existence
European Union Agency for Fundamental rights (this is cross Europe and covers over 90% of Europes Jewish populations); 70% report “caring about Israel is an important part of what being Jewish means to me”
Now, if we were being disingenuous, you could say “um, saying you strongly care about Israel and hold it as an important part of your religious/ethnicity identity doesn’t mean you supports its right to exist!”. But as many other groups have demonstrated time and again (American loser causers come to mind), people typically support the continue existence of things key to their identity, be it a statue or a nation.
Sure, supporting Israel’s right to exist “isn’t even the question here” (huh?), but a groups global attachment and support to an apartheid ethnostate isn’t a question, it’s a massive problem.
A “secular government” that has it’s Univameral assembly made up 85% of one religion/enthogroup, that keeps governing their country in ways that explicitly discriminate for the benefit of that group and against outgroups, in a nation founded on ethnoreligious nationalism and supremacy, really doesn’t pass the sniff test of “secular government”.
My argument? Lmao. It’s publicly available data. Global data that global Jews volunteer, that keeps showing consistently exactly what they overwhelmingly think and believe; an apartheid ethnostate built on stolen land by the murder or displacement of the locals is plainly supported or core to their identity.
No, you’re just full of shit and like to put words in other people’s mouths. But unlike you I have no issue being explicit; I think it’s both moral and ethical for a country of murderous rapists where every occupier (including the ones who want all these benefits but none of the hassle -excluding the somewhat more conscientious ethical draft evader-) has served in the occupying army should be bombed. So cram that yikes up your turdflap with th rest of your bullshit.
No, they just hold it very near and dear, very core to their identity. Lmao.
I won’t argue genocidal criteria with a dishonest liar like you, but both intent and execution have been multiple times fulfilled with what Israel is doing in Gaza under the Geneva conventions and Rome Statute.
Gubbinso@reddit
The problem is that most support Israel as a Jewish state. They support the idea. Most would not support the government's actions if they truly knew what Israel has really done. That's exactly why Israel budgets eye-watering amounts for hasbara and other propaganda; its entire existence relies on the veneer of legitimacy that they tirelessly work for.
The sad thing is, if Israel actually invested that into making itself better and held itself accountable, Israel would probably be one of, if not the best, countries in the world. Israel has long proven itself more than capable with its growing list of inventions and innovative technologies. It's a huge shame that it's still entangled in its settler colonialism roots, and the West continues to enable that.
BufferUnderpants@reddit
I think one has to separate the imagined zionism of the basic idea of a Jewish state, with the one that exists in reality, that has a supremacist and irredentist ideology and leads to conclusions like that killing Arab children is morally right because it means that invaders are driven off the Jews' rightful land.
A normal person that's a zionist in the sense of "Israel was necessary after what happened in WW2" does not hold the same ideas as flossdaily

When you ignore that Iranian's proxy belligerents (Hamas and Hezzbollah, most prominently, but also groups in Yemen and Africa) launch tens of thousands of rockets at Israeli civilians and you completely ignore it, your silence speaks volumes about whether you believe those indiscriminate attacks are justified.

The problem is Israel and them being an extension of US imperialism. Has nothing to do with Judaism, has everything to do with Israel’s entire history of apartheid and genocide. Stop picking fights 🤷♂️
Prosthemadera@reddit
What double standard? Israel is hardly the only country being called out.
It's not a Jewish state. People of other religions and ethnicities live there. Isn't that the reason why Israel is supposedly so great, because it's diverse unlike those Arabs ethnostates but now you're arguing Israel is one, too?
No one here has defended this. Why are you making shit up?
You're unbelievable. You're in a thread about a child being killed by Israeli bombs but you're not concerned with that at all. You're concerned with attacking fictional comments.
And you also really want to make sure that everyone knows that those are Jewish bombs and that this child was killed by Jews. It's very important for you to make sure that these are not the actions of a secular government but that Jews are responsible. How weird. It sounds exactly what an antisemite would say.

Israel leadership doesn’t appear to have a problem with the bombing of Jewish synagogues in other countries. Israel is a largely secular state with a population from Eastern Europe.

You can't just leave out the masses of western pedophiles that Israel shelters from justice. They also make a large portion of the population.

what breaks my heart even more is "where's the international condemnation and repercussions?"
the genocide opened my eyes and made me realize there's "Tiers" to humanity when it comes to international condemnation and consequences.
and I KNOW the media will write it in a vague way , you know exactly what I mean
they always do this when the perpetrator is Israel or the US.
if the victim is from west Asia its a number and a vague headline, if it happened in Israel you'll get the name of the victim all over 24/7, full media coverage and celebrities doing marches.
Kendos-Kenlen@reddit
I agree with you. But the worse in this story is that beyond the west, there are barely any reactions. The hypocrisy of European governments isn’t opposed by any other countries. The world has almost 200 countries, where are the condemnation and action from most of the world? They are nowhere beyond a few rare countries.
Middle East countries are the worse. They pretended for years to oppose Israel in the name of pretended brotherhood with Palestinians and Lebanese, but they fully support and enable Israel since the start of this genocide.
Only money and power matter to them. The blood of civilians have no value for most of the world.
GangsterMango@reddit
great point, especially the Middle East countries hypocrisy.
however I'm not absolving them from their responsibility but aren't they all including of Gulf oil countries western puppets? some of them are even directly installed after failed revolutions with the blessing of the US if not handpicked by them? to make sure they take IMF loans and give away resources, devalue the national currency and dismantle national manufacturing corporations and factories and make sure these countries remain under the boot of western imperialism.

If there's any consolation it shows that there's a maturity in respecting and calling out violations of jus cogen norms and inhumane acts. Before, we would look at the other way of Israel, the US or any western nation committed atrocities but now there is an attempt to hold everyone accountable. Does it fail? Yes, and very often. But it's a sign that the application of international law no longer has double standards and both those who benefitted due to the uneven application of the rules based order and those that were often unevenly subjected to it are being scrutinized with the same rigor. Sorry for the long paragraph, but as Western demographics pivot away from supporting Israel it brings me hope that the younger generations should be called out equally for such acts

I’m sorry but what?? I am German and this is the most ridiculous take I have read in a while. Israel is happily accepting hundreds of civilian casualties just to take out one Hezbollah official, they did the same in Gaza. What about this is comparable?
flossdaily@reddit
No they aren't.
Nope. Even by Hamas's numbers, the civilian death rate in Gaza was lower than the international average.
ThePlacidAcid@reddit
Actually, even by Israels numbers, around 81% of those killed where not identified as combatants. This ratio far surpasses any conflict in recent history.
HockeyHocki@reddit
This ratio is way off, hamas do not distinguish between deaths from war or from natural causes, they all get lumped in together.
With 2m people you'd need to knock off 12k to 15k deaths (crude death rate was 2.5 per 1k before war started)
Gubbinso@reddit
You missed this part
Israel uses the numbers published by Hamas? That shows they trust those numbers.
HockeyHocki@reddit
Israel accepts the Hamas published death toll figure because its fairly accurate, it does include deaths by natural causes though....where do you see a contradiction?
Revlar@reddit
It does not include deaths by natural causes. If it did it would be well over the 100k dead. It only counts those dead in direct conflict and bombing, but you know this already.

100k in the first year? are you actually insane

So much wrong with this statement.
America and Israel actually agree with the 'hamas' numbers and almost all international agencies agree these numbers are a vast under estimation because of the on-going genocide.
What is the international average? The average human has one testicle and one breast, does that make it accurate?
EconomistStreet5295@reddit
What are you on about? Israel, like any modern military, does a risk assessment of each strike. They know they will kill a bunch of civilians but they don’t care as they will also get one enemy commander. Even worse, they dehumanise the civilians and label them as terrorists.
Even if the numbers were to be inflated they would still be enormous. But wait, we actually have independent NGO’s and footage of funerals and graves and rescue operations to see the amount of people killed. But of course this is just more propaganda right?

Don't bother, this guy is literally in favour of the war in Iran (said so in another comment today). He just doesn't like that it's an incompetent buffoon like Trump doing this
EconomistStreet5295@reddit
I wonder what news sphere someone like this is in
AnswersWithSarcasm@reddit
A heavily Zionist one.
flossdaily@reddit
Yup. Proudly.
Jews, like all people, have the right to exist peacefully in their own ancestoral homeland.
Freud-Network@reddit
By that logic, the land belongs to the Canaanites.
DefDefTotheIOF@reddit
lmao imagine being a proud nazi in 2026
Ropetrick6@reddit
So you oppose Israel then.
KaiBahamut@reddit
You don't believe that. You believe in killing people who are native and currently living in a land and displacing them in favor of those who might have, maybe, 2000 years ago, had an ancestor who lived there (Unless they are a convert! Then they still also take priority over any Palestinian who had lived there since their ancestor converted from Judaism during the Arab Conquests centuries ago)
ConfidentProgram2582@reddit
surely the 🧃 promised land
Lowered12@reddit
"Peacefully" maybe if they really want it maybe they shouldn't start wars , bomb people and in general make everyone hate them?

So do you think the Iranian government should continue killing all of their protestors? War in Iran was a justified action especially when they claimed they were two weeks away from a nuclear weapon.
Deep_Gazelle_1879@reddit
They claim Iran was 2 weeks away from having nukes for the last 30 years sybau
azure_beauty@reddit
Yes, that's what a breakout time means. I'm a thirty minutes walk away from the city center, yet if I don't start walking, tomorrow I'm still going to be the same thirty minutes away.
Deep_Gazelle_1879@reddit
Let's say it's true, although they weren't allowed by the previous supreme leader to actually create them because he said they are against the Quran, now the new leadership might be ok with them.
However I don't think it's fair for Israel to have nukes and not submit to international inspections as nuclear powers should
LEFT4Sp00ning@reddit
Ah yes because surely the US and Israel's goals in this war is making the lives of Iranians better. Not the oil for the US and creating a failed state for Israel, nonono. When did I say that it was okay for Iran to kill protestors of its government? You'll notice I did no such thing.
Netanyahu has said that Iran is close to building nuclear weapons since 1992. That's before I (and I assume most people on this comment thread) was fucking born.
In 1992 they were 2-3 years away from having nukes according to Bibi. In his 1995 book, "Fighting Terrorism", Iran was also 2-3 years away from nukes. 2002, he went to the US congress, spoke in favour of invading Iraq and said Iran was "racing towards nuclear weapons". In 2009, Wikileaks revealed he had been contacting members of congress saying Iran is 1-2 years away from nukes. In 2012, he said Iran would be on the final stage of enrichment by next spring or summer. Among many others.
I'm sorry if I don't take the word of the United States of America and Israel at face value about the country they're currently trying to justify an invasion of.
Pklnt@reddit
This guy literally tried to whitewash Israel, claiming that the soldier that murdered a child was punished when in fact he wasn't.
Suspicious-Yogurt-95@reddit
Man, your comments only get worse!
flossdaily@reddit
Yeah, Jew-haters get really miffed when Jews stick up for ourselves. Deal with it.
Suspicious-Yogurt-95@reddit
I hate anyone killing innocent people, specially kids. It makes me wish I wasn't an atheist so I could believe there's a place where those evil people are going to suffer eternally when they die.
civodar@reddit
I’m guessing you were on of those kids who thought history was boring and stupid? Israel’s actions closely mirror Nazi germany’s, not the other way around. They’re literally attacking all their neighbours for lebensraum and starved a walked in civilian population for months leading to 10s of thousands of deaths.
I urge you to learn your history because it’s ignorance like yours that allows these things to repeat over and over again.
flossdaily@reddit
Yeah, the only difference being that Israel is a liberal democracy with equal rights for all, and was was waged against it, and not vice versa.

I love when morons make the democratic genocide case when that only makes it infinitely worse… lol
SpontaneousFlame@reddit
It’s especially revealing when they say that Israel avoids civilian casualties but can’t point to a single case where any civilian casualties were ever avoided…

Bruh if you’re really still trying to make this argument in 2026 I don’t know what to tell you. The international criminal court has a warrant out for their prime minister’s arrest for a year now and when he is finally arrested and made to stand trial at The Hague like countless war criminals before him people like you will still be defending Israel.
lolSign@reddit
Oh god some of yall americans are actually real pos. You deserve trump as your president
mishana@reddit
Do they have schools in the US?
dasunt@reddit
Are you claiming it's unfair to condemn any group if they kill civilians?
The4thJuliek@reddit
If you have such an issue with this sub, why are you here? Go back to worldnews, where you can be praised for getting off on the deaths of children.
this-aint-Lisp@reddit
yeah and you would be defending Nazi Germany then.
BNTSG@reddit
Wow, what a stupid fucking take
BernieMP@reddit
Continuously pushing past their borders
Selectively holding a certain ethnicity in "camps"
Restricting resources from reaching the "camps"
Telling other native ethnic groups not to harbor the persecuted group, to avoid the same persecution
Harvesting organs from said ethnic group for "medical" purposes
Killing people who report on their actions
Targeting protected aid and humanitarian workers
Yeah...that definitely sounds like the good guys in WW2...
Morgn_Ladimore@reddit (OP)
People like you would have dismissed the My Lai Massacre in Vietnam as "enemy propaganda" or a "just a part of war".
See how stupid it is to discuss hypothetical scenarios?
DeepState_Auditor@reddit
That's the most disgusting excuse to distract from war crimes.
Future-Excuse6167@reddit
Boomer slop.
Plenty of people criticize the Allies' bombing campaigns, Dresden and Tokyo being the prime examples, because we actually believe you can commit war crimes even if the war is justified and you win.
Downtown-Theme-3981@reddit
Israel is ww2 Germany in this case, so
We already have this shit, israel playing victim card daily. Lucky there are less and less idiots believing it
Revlar@reddit
The whole point of international war was to prevent anything like that happening again, not to declare "these are the good guys who get to do it"
borat_is_good_movie@reddit
It's more like witnessing the massacres of civilians and then watching people that lack humanity defend them
cannibaltom@reddit
Don't let them minimize or victim blame. Don't let them suppress the reporting of their war crimes. Don't let them hide the immense suffering they are causing. Don't let anyone pretend that this is okay.
BernieMP@reddit
Dang, this has to be the slowest double tap kill the-country-who-shal-not-be-named has ever carried out
Of course, I'm only assuming the girl's father died during an attack by the-country-who-shal-not-be-named. But given the-country-who-shal-not-be-named's current track record and recent colossal attack, I could bet my left nut that father did infact die by an attack from the-country-who-shal-not-be-named
chiefmackdaddypuff@reddit
Fuck that. Name the country.
It’s Israel. The genocidal terrorist regime that is hellbent on killing innocent people, little kids, and helpless mothers.
It has starved, killed, tortured, raped and dehumanized Palestinians for 70+ years. It’s done so again in Gaza, and it’s doing so again in Lebanon.
Fuck Israel.
