This show of force, welcomed by some Palestinians after months of lawlessness, could now threaten the fragile ceasefire, especially as all living hostages from Hamas’s 7 October 2023 attack have been released.
The Hamas-run police maintained a high degree of public security after the militants seized power in Gaza 18 years ago while also cracking down on dissent. They largely melted away in recent months as Israeli forces seized large areas of Gaza and targeted Hamas security forces with airstrikes.
You guys do understand that Israel has been funding ISIS gangs to rape and kill Palestinians? How exactly should the people of Palestine deal with this issue? Ask them politely to leave?
I dunno, but I’m pretty sure the right option is not public executions without due process perpetrated by a bunch of religious extremist nutjobs hours after ironically fascist nutjobs stopped publicly executing civilians without due process only they didn’t actually stop.
Due process would be great if there was a functioning court and prison system, but Israel bombed all that
SO just murder people at random? Great!
Lol seriously. It’s things like this that put me off this site. It’s unhinged. If any other state executed people in the streets without due process these same people would be up in arms, calling them fascists. But Hamas do it and it’s all good. I’m convinced some users here see any criticism of Hamas as meaning that it’s a show of support for the IDF/Israel.
Factly this. Hamas are, morally, as bad as the IDF, they WANT to do to Israelis what Israel has been doing to Palestinians, they just din’t have backing fro the the US and the west so they CAN’T. This is in no way supporting or excusing the IDF, it’s just not supporting or excusing Hamas either!
If jihadi’s had proper infrastructure they’d use it!
Please. There’s never been an anti-colonial movement where collaborators weren’t punished harshly. Nelson Mandela’s ANC executed collaborators in famously brutal fashion.
And that makes it fine for a bunch of religious extremists to murder people in the streets?
The IDF was involved???
What a dumb comment
Yes, that’s usually how you deal with collaborators and snitches when you’re at war with a much larger enemy. I don’t see what their religion has to do with it, Hamas is a nationalist anti-colonial movement, not an Islamist one.
Their reason for existence is to do to Israel what Israel has been doing to Palestine, they just don;t have the backing and resources to do so. Hamas deserve not one iota more respect or forgiveness than the IDF. The innocent Palestinians getting fucked over six ways from Sunday in the middle are where sympathy goes, don’t mistake them for Hamas any more than you mistake the Israeli government for Jews worldwide
Hamas wouldn’t need to exist if Israel ended their apartheid and genocide of Palestinians. There is no “both sides” here.
No, fuck anybody who support the state comiting the genocide.
Who said I supported any state comitting genocide?
Would you have opposed the execution of Nazi collaborators?
Fucking dumb question
Nearly all of those executions were carried out with due process.
I don’t support public executions of anyone.
I can’t tell people who was stripped from all justice for 77 years about how to deal with the collaborators helping the enemy in a genocide. You can ask for holding Hamas accountable once justice is restored, the occupation end and Israeli leaders are held accountable too
Yeah, it’s a fucked situation; personally I don’t think masked men shooting blindfolded and bound people in the public square is the best solution, but you’re right that it’s not my place to decide.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with forming opinions and considering alternatives though.
Those are the gang that Israel made them escape from jail to assist them in the genocide and if they was jailed back Israel when they resume the genocide will liberate them back
No. I will not excuse Hamas being fucking awful for one second just because the IDF have been being fucking awful for a long time!
You support people who assisted Israel in the genocide. You just an hypocrite
Do you approve of executing accused people without actually proving that they’re guilty of being accused of first?
Netenyahu admitted that he is using gangs that was involved in the stealing of food and helping them in the genocide.
That doesn’t mean people should be executed because they’re suspected of something, their guilt needs to be proved first.
Hamas are not idiots, you crazy if you think Hamas is going to execute civilians and make the majority of Gazan revolt against them. I can’t tell people who was stripped from all justice for 77 years about how to deal with the collaborators helping the enemy in a genocide. You can ask for holding Hamas accountable once justice is restored, the occupation end and Israeli leaders are held accountable too
Oh, of course, Hamas should just turn them into the police. Silly me. Oi Hamas, this Britbong bloke says you ought to call the fuzz!
What a fantastically dumb statement. Well done.
