Hey, Im gonna acknowledge that you put a lot of effort into this analogyand I have to say that it was all a waste because this is dumb as hell.
Care to elaborate on what aspect of the point being made is wrong?

"Hamas are like the Rebel Alliance from Star Wars" and "Hamas is no longer a threat" were not posts I was expecting to read ITT.

Back in March Israel already had reported they had dismantled 20/24 hamas battalions.

Since then they have continued killing remaining hamas including 2/3 of their leaders (one of them being the leader of its actual military wing) and as someone else in this topic pointed out the remaining leader likely has terminal cancer.

Hamas is effectively cooked.

imagine a country that allows land theft to continue and treats so called 'neighbors' worse than second class citizens. one would call it apartheid

Gaza/West Bank is not a free nation and Israel fights any effort that would acknowledge a Palestine state.

Well stumbling out of the gate by comparing the main characters to terrorists was probably not a great idea.

? How is using one of the most well meme'd things about the original trilogy "stumbling"? Everyone already knew that they were terrorists, that was kind of the given.

Something Lucas himself has done on many occasions.

Whatever. I used it because it was a nice, universally understood representation of grossly-disproportionate retribution I could think of. And I literally led off by saying I was editing the parameters by creating a hypothetical where the rebels were as bad as Hamas, because I knew people would get hung up on that. But apparently even that is too much for you guys, so I'll just delete it.

The ACTUAL point was that Israel is currently doing the equivalent of blowing up alderaan. 80% of Gaza is a smoking crater, and they're happily blowing up schools full of children to kill one potential Hamas operative in the building. It's still a grossly disproportionate response.

This is tiresome....I think everybody knows the WHY of the war. Topic seems stealth manipulative for a pro israel stance.

Fuck Israel

The same way any domestic terrorists are dealt with. They are left for the populace to deal with as they carve out their destiny.

There's a reason support for Hamas skyrockets when Israel is commiting atrocities.

The only thing I care about is that were funding and shielding them from the world still.

And if that wasnt bad enough theyve only been escalating things in the Middle East. None of which is going to end well for them frankly.

Isn't this almost what happened during the camp David accords? Israel was going to cede the entire West Bank with the exception of a few small enclaves but Yasir Arafat wanted all or nothing. That was probably the best deal the Palestinians were ever going to get, unfortunately.
No it isn't. The main issue that fell the Accords was retention of East Jerusalem and the Muslim and Christian holy sites in it. Arafat clearly said he was willing to compromise on everything but this, and the Israelis weren't willing to give East Jerusalem back.

Israel stepped up the game and declared the West Bank as the new Gaza.
