In reply to the discussion: Sinwar's wife was holding $32,000 Birkin bag in Oct 6 footage [View all]

(11,554 posts)64. If IDF can identify Sinwar's DNA in the tunnel where hostages were executed,
I don't think identifying a designer's bag would present an insurmountable challenge for them.
Supporting Palestinians is not supporting Hamas, but that's not what you are doing in your post.
You are labeling a report from Sinwar's hideout, not the details about Sinwar it documents, as grotesque. And the report is all about Sinwar, not the Palestinian people. That comes awfully close to exculpating Sinwar for my taste.

Yes, you are right, there are zero Jews living in Gaza because they would be killed for their religion, very segregated

It's in the script. Equating them makes Hamas terrorists morally righteous freedom fighters battling racism

The horrors suffered are the result of Israel's decision to inflict Amalek and another Nakba on Palestinians.

Gaza had a whole border with Eygpt not controlled by Israel..I wonder why their fellow Arabs kept it fairly shut also?

Sure, Israel is not responsible for anything they do to the Palestinians because of Hamas.

Of course there is no equivalency between a claimed Birkin bag and the horrors suffered by Palestinians

I don't think the IDF is doing any worse then the US military, better IMO due to almost purely urban warfare
