Technically we did not lose in Afghanistan or Iraq. Both objectives were achieved and those invasions were incredibly successful, the problem was the mission became ambiguous and changed afterwards in occupation. By the time we left Afghanistan I don't think there was an objective we were just kind of there. The problem is we thought we could turn those countries into democracies after doing what we had to. Which is fine for places like Japan, Germany, and South Korea. But Islamic societies clearly don't want that so we shouldn't have even bothered.

I said the same thing. It's comical really seeing that we murdered 300-400,000 innocent civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan. Two reasons you are seeing high civilian deaths. #1 hamas uses them as shields and want civilians to die as it helps thier messaging. They also don't wear uniforms so they are hard to pick out against a civilians. And #2 it's the most density per mile of people.

[@feloniousshlong]

The US would not drop 500 lb bombs in Mosul, Israel has regularly dropped 2000lb bombs on apartment buildings and refugee camps. An IDF spokesperson admitted to Wolf Blitzer that they bombed a refugee camp, likely killing around 200 civilians in order to get one Hamas commander. It's an insult to the US military to compare the IDF's blatant disregard for collateral damage, to US military operations. Even the most ardent Israel supporter should agree that Israel has shown a disregard for civilians and their own hostages at points. Hamas directly targeted and killed civilians, but Israel has also blown up over half the buildings in Gaza. I think a large portion on the planet feel that the "human shields" argument cannot be an excuse to turn the majority of a territory to rubble.

I am glad Israel is not going to listen to the U.S. Oh, and the U.S. military killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi and Afghani civilians in the wake of these two wars.

I don't think its that necessarily. Its unfortunate, but soldiers have traditionally been defined as men ( a little older than adolescents) for millennia. Its harder and murkier and difficult to distinguish between a male who is "fighting age" that is a civilian vs a soldier. However, women, children and elderly are usually more clearly and easily distinguished as not being the soldiers. Hence the difference. So, not so much people don't care, its that when talking about civilians its easier to make clear who you're talking about if you talk about people who CLEARLY can't be fighting soldiers (ie innocent).

Biden's withdrawal from Afghanistan was disastrous, passively arming the Taliban with abandoned weapons and munitions stores as well as the repetitional loss and doubts raised by strategic partners regarding US commitments- so I'm not convinced of Senator Kelly's claims about how the US would conduct operations against Hamas. Sen. Kelly never discusses specific metrics about what would constitute improvement in the IDF's ability to limit civilian casualties, and despite his acknowledgement that Hamas is the most substantial threat to lasting peace in the region, the UN just voted to expand Palestine's observer state status. His suggestion that Hamas would abide by any binding treaty is absolute folly. Why doesn't he just put on a top hat like Lord Chamberlain and proclaim, "peace in our time"?

«My hope here is that in *the coming days,* there could be some change, you know-we will have to see but we continue to have these ongoing discussions with Hamas towards *some kind of* a ceasefire; Hamas has traditionally rejected them...And what I would like to see is that *things settle down.»* Meaning-if the protests persist after those "ongoing discussions," then it would be okay to unleash the *National Guard* on protesters?! "I want this, I want that"-does Mr. Kelly consider what the protesters are asking for besides what "he wants."

This guy doesn't seem to know what he is talking about. For example his aim is "peace with Hamas" that will "eliminate it as a threat". This self-contradictory sentence clearly embodies both a lack of understanding of what Hamas is and the relationship between Hamas and the Palestinian population.

[@canitbethat]

You're absolutely right. Hamas has been completely clear that if they are left in power, they will attack Israel again and again. The only way to eliminate them as a threat is to overthrow them. It surprises me how many people don't believe Hamas when they essentially say this themselves, and have certainly proven their sincerity.

@@DarthVader20201 If you're claiming here that the Plstnn people themselves would not allow Hms to continue to run a government in Gz, you're mistaken. Polling of Plstnns shows that they absolutely would, by a large margin. It's an unfortunate truth that the only way to end Hms rule is for Isrl to overthrow them. Even if the Plstnns still had elections (which they don't) Hms wouldn't be voted out of power.

@@canitbethat you are obviously not a military expert. There certainly are ways to fight a war in which intelligence and targeting militants is priority. That is clearly not the case here.

[@canitbethat]

@@Makerx2011 Not a military expert myself, but have read what some of them have written about this. Read, for example, the analysis of John Spencer, chair of urban warfare studies at West Point's Modern Warfare Institute, on the measures the IDF has been taking to protect civilians. He clearly thinks they're ahead of the U.S. on this. Look also at the civilian to combatant ratio from the most similar battle the U.S. has led, vs. ISIS in Mosul. The IDF has done better than the U.S. did there. It's easy to say that it could be done better, but where's the actual evidence of another military doing better in a similar situation?

Dear World, I understand your frustration with us here in Israel. It's evident that our actions have often stirred anger and controversy. From the conflicts with our neighbors to the ongoing struggles for peace, we recognize the toll it takes on our relationship with the global community. But please, allow me to offer some context. Our journey as a people has been marked by adversity and resilience. From the horrors of the Holocaust to centuries of persecution and exile, we've endured unimaginable hardships. When we returned to our ancestral homeland, it was not to provoke or upset, but to find safety and security. Yet, our presence has sparked tensions and conflicts that have tested the patience of the world. Despite the challenges we face, we remain committed to coexistence and peace. We strive to defend our land while seeking paths to reconciliation with our neighbors. So, when you criticize our actions or policies, remember the history that has shaped our choices. Remember the sacrifices made by generations past to ensure our survival and the importance of our homeland to our identity and existence. We don't seek to upset you. We seek understanding, empathy, and a shared vision for a peaceful future. Sincerely, Israel
