Reading the account of the shooting of the three Israeli hostages by IDF, I couldn’t help but to wonder how many other non combatants have been shot when trying to surrender?
I want to see the terrorists caught and punished and I’m all for someone wielding a gun to be shot, but these guys were stripped to the waist and empty handed except for a white flag.
We’ve heard about these as the dead men were Israeli. How many dead Palestinians were killed in similar circumstances, when they’d done nothing wrong and we’ll never hear about it?
Terrorists are criminals and don’t follow rules, trained soldiers should be better than this.

Unfortunately this happens.
Active combat in a war zone isn't a clear cut as it is from the comfort of my sofa.
When it happens, it's a tragedy, regardless of what side you're on.

It’s complicated by the fact that so many hide behind civilians, making civilians targets
Maybe if Palestine didn’t support Hamas so much, and Hamas actually had some morals and didn’t hide behind women and children in hospitals and schools, the rules of engagement would be clearer

It's an horrific situation and nobody should be killed any further. It's tragic that military people are pushed to killing others. And totally wrong that men who could have been contained otherwise, were shot in this situation. |

Correct. 
In relation to terrorists they don't wear uniforms in order to blend in with civvies.You try spotting a terrorist amongst a group,especially with weapon concealed,(even from your armchair). |

I’m sure it’s very difficult a lot of the time. In this instance the IDF have already stated their rules of engagement were not followed.
I imagine there are other instances where the rules have not been followed, but we’ll never hear about them.
How many instances may have occurred when the shooting is an act of blind revenge rather than the fog of war.

I taught a firearms course a few years ago.
Handed out a few weapons.
"Tell me which are real, which are deacts and which are props"
Very few people could tell them apart.

I guess I’d rely on the training I had and subsequent experiences in the UK and Afghanistan. Mind you, even there I had access to an armchair.
How did you manage to differentiate?
And please remember, I’m talking about this specific incident not some theoretical terrorist incident.

I don't read about any of it and thugs are thugs, going around killing people in the name of a country or an ideal is outdated and has no place in this world anymore, if you put weapons in the hands of thugs or soldiers whats the difference both kill. |

Absolutely! Neutralise the threat, but you’ve got to identify it first.
One of the men even managed to take cover and shout in Hebrew before he was shot again, so it seems the IDF had time to pause and think this through.

It's a terrorist army, supported by a Palestinian government, trying to wipe out a nation state.

In a close quarter urban fire fight people are tense and scared and its too easy to fire first especially if the target doesn't have the same uniform as you. Its war and shit happens unfortunately. |

Or.... This didn't start on October 7, wasn't anything to do with Hamas because "Why the West Bank?" and Why did you undermine the PLO?,... or how can you engage and destroy hospitals, schools and shoot to kill journalists, or how can you firebomb a land where more than 50% of it's occupants are under 15, or why are 50% of its occupants 15 years old anyway isn't that questionable? Why are any of those 15s in prison/jail in Israel? Why the flagging continual violation of settlements? Why the security of the wall was ridiculously outwitted. How can your ambassadors say "there's never going to be a 2 state solution".

Truth. Whose truth?
Anything and everthing in the Middle East is complicated.
So much history. So many states and factions entwined and interlinked.
If anyone thinks stabilising the Middle East is simple, or black and white they need their bumps felt. |

The IDF were supposedly there to specifically look for these men and others.
They were stripped to the waist and waving a white flag. They shouted in Hebrew.
My worry is that it wasn’t a mistake in the heat of the moment, rather an example of a willingness to kill Palestinians. It seems the IDF might have a similar concern around these three deaths.

The question that should be being asked is. Israel has dropped 29,000 air to ground munitions. Yet it has according to Hammas figures only managed to kill 19,000 people. That according to Israel and its supporters is a exaggeration.
So not even 1 kill per bomb.
Thats a very expensive kill rate. But I guess its ok, since its free gifts from American taxpayers and they don't have to pay for it. |

What are you on about? Nobody's even denying the numbers anymore. This isn't confirmation bias or potato potaato.
153 states voted against. Even Biden's started to question the whole "indiscriminate killing" bit.
What's convinced you that this is somehow anything different? |

Most people won't speak out against the crowd or tribe they come from. Much easier to keep your mouth shut and make life easy for yourself.
There really is no rewards for speaking against your own. Only isolation and persecution, only need to look at what happened to some of the whistle-blowers from Iraq and Afghanistan. But maybe some people's consciousness won't allow them to remain silent. |

Sounds like typical Hamas behaviour, actions that could easily be confused under the fog of war. It's why so many journalists, medics and UN workers were also annihilated...
The IDF take every measure to protect innocent Palestinians. Like sending warnings to get out of the area, written on the sides of every bomb they're about to airdrop into Gaza.
Still can't believe people can't call this out for what it is. |

It’s happened since the first time humans went to war and it still happens today. Fortunately not very often at least in well disciplined armies, but I doubt it will ever totally stop. |

When the same was happening between Russia and Ukraine it was condemned, wasn’t it? Now, because it’s brown people, Israel is protecting itself. 
Protecting itself from a people who can’t even leave a space akin to an open air prison fortified by Israel, under surveillance, without a military, etc.
With Israel’s extremely advanced military and surveillance capacities they well and truly can “hunt” only Hamas. This isn’t about Hamas and never was.

If they can specifically look for any men it’s a question of why drop bombs across the entire cities, killing the civilians isn’t it?
It’s been demonstrated it’s an overwhelming willingness to ethnically cleanse the Palestine of its people. The land, Israel sits on, isn’t Israel’s. It’s a state created and forged forward by the U.K., and US in part. From the beginning, 1946 or 1948, this was always about getting rid of Palestine. |

Israel has admitted the underground tunnels they claimed Hamas created were in fact created by Israel in the 1980s.

The only comparison I made was in relation to civilians being bombed. It was condemned between Russia and Ukraine but the same isn’t applied between Israel and Palestine.
Hamas as a terrorist group isn’t the majority. Civilians, babies, children under age 15 aren’t terrorists as a whole. The execution of entire families isn’t ridding the place of Hamas. Israel has the ability to hone in on Hamas but instead they are blanket bombing the entire zone. This is where my comparison comes come. Not the reason behind the ware in the first place.
With a history of genocide of their people, you’d think they’d approach ending Hamas differently. Humanity shouldn’t go out the window in a war. That was my point. |

I’m guessing you’re not being serious here? But even if you were, the IDF have already stated the incident was against their rules of engagement.
I can’t help thinking this isn’t tense trigger figures and the gig of war, but evidence that Israeli soldiers are happy to shoot anyone in front of their guns.

26% of Israelis are immigrants. So they may well have not been educated in Hebrew. Are you totally dismissing the possibility.
But of course even if they couldn't read Hebrew, it doesn't excuse what happened. Also if the victims had been Palestinian, I doubt the world would have heard of the incident.. |
