GAZA/JERUSALEM, Oct 24 (Reuters) - More than 700 Palestinians were killed in overnight Israeli air strikes, Gaza’s health ministry said on Tuesday, the highest 24-hour death toll since Israel began a bombing campaign to crush Hamas militants who stunned the country with a deadly Oct. 7 attack.
Israel said it had killed dozens of Hamas fighters in the overnight strikes on the besieged enclave but said its war to destroy the Islamist group would take time.
As aid agencies warned that a humanitarian catastrophe was unfolding in Gaza, French President Emmanuel Macron flew to Israel to offer it support.
Bro there are literally Christians in Gaza.
Gaza is 99.8% Sunni Muslim. There are 2-3,000 Christians there. It is an ethno state for all practical purposes.
What does it say for the death toll that some of that .2% have already been killed by air strikes? Some even in their places of worship.
Just here correcting fake facts. Have all the sympathy in the world for the victims of war mongering religious conservatism.
I continue to just have sympathy for humans regardless
Yeah, same
Again I will say that I think you think that ethnostate means a country with a majority of one group of people…
Israel is an ethnostate because their constitution means that anyone who is not a Jew is a second class citizen if a citizen at all, and only Jews are allowed to be citizens.
Gaza has a majortiy of Muslims but never rejected “citizenship” to Jews or Christians. This is not the same as an ethno state.
For the love of fuck use Google before saying nonsense. Just because the word sounds like it means this, it doesn’t.
Israel is akin to Nazi Germany in its ethnostate-ness. Hope that makes it clear now.
I’m not sure this is correct in respect to Gaza.
The requirements for citizenship under pre-hamas in Gaza is your father must be an Palestinian Arab. There is no naturalization process that allows you to bypass this requirement. That is the definition of an ethnostate.
While I can’t find any record on if Hamas changed the law, I highly doubt they did considering their political stance.
Citizenship requires that you are a country. Israel has taken that away from Palestinians decades ago.
I was pointing out that this statement you made:
Gaza has a majortiy of Muslims but never rejected “citizenship” to Jews or Christians.
Is very, very wrong.
Sure thing buddy.
Do you understand what ethnostate means?
Yeah do you? Even North Korea isn’t 100%. Not about to argue absolutist definitions in the real world with an internet edgelord.
how do you define an ethnostate?
