Hamas says it has launched a rocket attack towards the Tel Aviv area in central Israel for the first time in nearly four months. At least eight rockets were launched from the Rafah area in southern Gaza and several were intercepted, the Israeli military says. No injuries have been reported.

    Soldiers of an occupying force are fair game.

      Occupying what? That town has always been in Israeli territory.

        “always” might be a bit of a strong word when referring to ownership of basically any part of that region.

        Occupying Palestine. If you think Israel has a right to exist within the pre-1967 borders, then occupying Gaza and the West Bank.

          I beg of everyone, please read sources before forming a position on an issue. So much bloodshed could be avoided on all sides if people took the time to inform themselves before jumping to angry knee-jerk reactions.

          The kibbutz [Re’im] was established in 1949 by former Palmach members with the provisional name HaTzofim Vav

            If the US were invaded by Australia, we would fight them on the shores of California and the fields of Pennsylvania, but we would also rain down hellfire on Perth and Sydney. I’m not sure why you think the history of the particular place the IOF soldiers were stationed at is relevant. That’s setting aside that the reason the occupation troops were there is to enforce the siege of Gaza that has been in place since 2007.

              That’s where the music festival was on Oct 7, you know, the one where civilians were murdered in cold blood out of the blue? The thing that started this whole shitshow? Please allow me to reiterate:

                Oh my bad, soldiers and police trying to protect concertgoers from getting slaughtered wholesale at a music festival are fair game. Do you hear yourself?

                You should pay more attention to the history of the thread you’re commenting in.
