Footages were found recently, which show Hamas punishing and torturing their own citizens with extreme cruelty. Hamas strives to commit genocide to the other nation, but they have no merci towards its own nation. Both Hamas and HizebAllah are willing to sacrifice their own nations for the "holy sake" of exterminating the neighbor nation.

HizebAllah has planted a big weapons cache under a cemetery.

Netanyahu is trying desperately to start a regional war and get the US involved. The longer this goes on, the more likely he will get what he wants

Israel now pushing for a ceasefire or peace with Hezbollah but the group is insisting on Gaza First.

Bibi is trying the to silence the north so he can finish the south first then go back to Hezbollah and attack, Bibi's strategy is well known divide and conquer but it wont work this time.

It worked with Jordan and Egypt but not this time.

So we should punish the civilians with missile strikes for the crime of being tortured by Hamas? Im so lost.

News agencies are reporting that the U.S. is asking Russia to pressure Syrian Pres. Assad to block the flow of weapons to Hezbollah, Israel is hoping that it could sign a peace agreement with Hezbollah soon.

“Everyone can see, in front of cameras, that what is being pulled from under the rubble are women, children and elderly people who have nothing to do with weapons or rocket warehouses," Berro said.

These baby killers on the IDF really need to be given a blood nose!

In northern Gaza, an Israeli strike on a home sheltering displaced people. . .

Israel's military said that it targeted a site where militants were operating, without providing evidence. It said the details of the strike were under review.

Israel's calling card.

Bomb a school, shelter, hospital.

A majority of the dead are women and children.

Claim they were targeting militants.

Provide no evidence.

Say they are investigating the matter.

a big weapons cache under a cemetery.

I am not sure where you get these hilarious tales on the unfolding history of the Middle East conflict, especially the last few weeks are very creative, with the IDF being the savior of the good sentiments. I praise you for your imagination : ) 

I would also suggest to expand your reading on real facts, but perhaps you want to stay in your fantasy world? 

UN says that close to 70% of verified victims over a six-month period killed in the war in Gaza were women and children.

The IDF targets terrorists and weapons caches, not civilians.

The time has come for the mad, cruel and criminal Hamas and HizebAllah to raise their hands up and surrender. They should return the hostages, annul their plans to exterminate Israel and make room for new leaderships in the Gaza strip and in Lebanon. Such new leaderships should seek peace, rehabilitation, development and prosperity.

Both the Palestinian Arabs and the Istaeli Jews have roots in the land. The land was Jewish until the first centuries AD, when the Roman Empire decimated the Jews and exiled them. The land became predominantly Arabic in the 7th century AD, with the Arabic/Muslim conquest of the entire Middle East. Many Jewish immigrants returned to their ancient land in the 19th and 20th century, as a result of persecution and murder. The UNGA decided in 1947 to create two states on the land - A Jewish state (actually a Jew-Arabic state) and an Arabic state.

Check the facts.

NB.

That is a great synopsis for the next horror flick. I think you have a future in Hollywood.

What part of the English sentence don't you understand? Mind, this is UN communique, not the American military dispatches:

Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says

As for the history on Middle East, please venture outside Social Media :)

I insist that Israel, as a policy, does not target civilians. It is different for Hamas and for HizebAllah. Do you know what they did to children, women, elderly and other civilians on October 7 2023 when they launched this war?

I am glad that you insist, at least it shows you are human. But have you read the UN report or do you just have a job to publish contrasting narratives?

And since you claim you know the history of the Middle East, do you really think the conflict between Palestine and Israel started on the 7th of October 2023? Because this is really the root of all problems with the disinformation online.

This is pretty straightforward to me: "Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says".

In response you said "I insist that Israel, as a policy, does not target civilians". 

Maybe I am talking to AI :)

The most significant crossroad was in 1947-1948. The UNGA decided to establish two states - A Jewish state (actually a Jewish-Arabic state) and an Arabic state. The moderate Palestinian wanted to accept this resolution, and live together with the Jews, but the extremists had the upper hand. These extremists launched a disastrous war in 1948, and so the horrid conflict continued to roll on. Various attempts to reach reconciliation were made, but the extremist Palestinians rejected all of them.

The full responsibility for this horrific war rests on those who strive and act to exterminate the other nation, and reject any coexistence.

At least we agree on that: the Israeli settlers who are occupying hundreds of illegal colonies in the Palestine territories, despite the numerous UN resolutions in the last 70 years.

The UN said in 1947 that two states should be established. Arafat was offered in the year 2000 to get back 96% of the Palestinian territories and 4% of Israel in return for peace. He refused.

Perhaps you are omitting that just before the deal was being signed, in 1995, a terrorist, a Jewish extremist, killed Yitzhak Rabin, the Israel Prime Minister, and the only chance to promote peace.

The Camp David accords did not comply with the Palestinian right of return, of self-determination and to national independence and sovereignty.

Again, we need to quote history books based on facts, not impressions.
