What would be a reasonable amount? What do you consider a reasonable response towards people who decapitate babies? Bake them in ovens in front of their parents? Rape women while mutilating their bodies? The list goes on. What's a reasonable response for a country that has had this thing done upon it?

Israel is at war. A war it did not start and it will do everything it can to ensure rhis never happens again.

Another question for you, if Gaza is so dangerous for innocent civilians due to indiscriminate bombings, why isn't Egypt taking in refugees? Why aren't civilians allowed to take shelter in the kilometers of underground tunnels which were built using th billions (yes billions) of dollars the Gaza strip has received over the years?

I still haven't seen proof of this.

>Israel is at war. A war it did not start

  • I still haven't seen proof of this Go search the "Hamas horror film". Then answer again what you think a reasonable response is.

  • this didn't start October 7 When did it start then?

I'm not responsible for supporting your argument.

When the UN resolved to instate the country of Israel and the arab countries attacked it in response? Yes. I agree.

I thought no babies were decapitated. This turned out to be disinformation :/ in case you missed the memo

At this point I think you're just a misinformation bot lol

Unfortunately, I know this for a fact (I'm from Israel, talked to people who were there). It's not even the worst thing that was done. As Israel is torn between protecting the victims of the attacks and explaining them to the world, the proof you require will probably never be shown. I assume you are familiar with the "Hamas horror film"? Is what it shows not enough to go to an all out war against an enemy that has very clearly shown its only goal is your total destruction?

But did you click that link at all? It details exactly how the claim started and how there is no evidence for it at all?

I think you are either blind on purpose or a bot.
