I understand no one is defending Hamas. But where is the condemnation is regarding the execution of their own citizen.
They show concern only when IDF is involved, calling it genocide; otherwise, they ignore what’s happening, showing double standards and insincere empathy.
You obviously see the situation very differently than I do. What I see is a nationalist insurgency which has been simmering for a long time--getting on for a hundred years. Recently, under radical leadership, it has turned very ungly and many atrocities committed. As a consequence, the insurgency is being brutally suppressed. What do you see?
Who violated it first? Because 2 IDF soldiers are dead in Rafah because (according to Israel) Hamas blew them up which prompted an Israel response. You seem to only side with the muslim account on what happened by pointing the finger directly at Israel without even clarifying that both sides are arguing over what killed the 2 IDF soldiers. Israel claims it was Hamas and Hamas says they had nothing to do with the explosion. But somehow, Israel and Israel alone is to blame.
The reason many European nations refuse to extradite US citizens back to the US is because we, the US, execute our own citizens. How is this such an outrage when we do it ourselves?
Only those charged with first degree murder could, if their crime meets certain conditions, face the death penalty. And even then we don’t take them out in public and shoot them in the head in front of other people. Your argument fails. So are you going to condemn Hamas for killing their own people?
It's important to know that most of the Sunni Muslim extremists you speak of follow Salafism, with groups like ISIS following an even smaller subset of Salafism known as Wahhabism. The Taliban follow an even more obscure teaching in Islam called Deobandism and represent only a minuscule fraction of Sunni Muslims. These interpretations of Islam are not viewed as representative of the religion and are rejected by over 95% of Muslims worldwide.
I don't see that private executions are better than public ones.
Just declaring that it fails demonstrates nothing. I'm not convinced you even understand what my argument is.
I condemn each and every nation that executes its own people. And also those that execute the people of other nations - is that better somehow?
There is a difference between executions after a judicial process with several decades worth of appeals and just accusing people and shooting them like dogs in the street.
Really? I guess all executions should happen in front of people including kids. I agree with the death penalty and you have your right to your opinion but proposing public executions again is reverting back quite a few years. Animals that kill people have no business being part of society.
I told you why but you dismissed it without explanation. It is a fail because you are comparing a legal, for cause criminal execution with a barbaric, illegal execution in a public place.
No. I want to see you condemn Hamas for their barbaric actions.
1) The increase of settlements is promoted by the Israeli government.
I can't speak for international communities. So what I can is just offer a cursory observation. Those international communities, those public demonstration, those student protests are yes in protection of the people of Palestine themselves. So where does one use their ammo in protest come the protection of Palestinian people? The atrocities from the government of Israel? Or this incident with Hamas?
