The Israeli government has not confirmed the specific claim that Hamas attackers beheaded babies during the attack on Saturday, contradicting an earlier statement by the Prime Minister’s office. An Israeli official stated that while there have been cases of Hamas militants committing brutal acts, they cannot confirm the identity of the victims, such as whether they were children, soldiers, or civilians. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had indicated the beheadings occurred, but his office later released photos showing burned bodies without specifying their ages. Explosive allegations about decapitated children emerged earlier in Israeli media, and the Israel Defense Forces described the scene as a “massacre.” However, Hamas denied the allegations, and CNN could not independently verify the claims.

        Yeah sun yourself in your „righteous“ outrage - Hamas did Palestine no favor by committing those horrendous crimes. People that pretty much formerly unequivocally supported the Palestinian cause, like myself, were turned away by this. There is no easy comeback from this - and people like you only make it worse for the Palestinians… just because you behave like self righteous assholes.

          “Terrorists did terror so let’s do genocide”

          That’s what you sound like.

          You are turned away from the Palestinian cause because of this? What is the ‘Palestinian cause’ to you? You are saying you support the view that an entire population should be eradicated or forced from their homes, because a group of militants among their population of millions committed acts of terror.

          I do not believe that you “pretty much unequivocally supported the Palestinian cause.”
