    You asked why Islrael should be expected to follow the Oslo Accords if Hamas didn’t. I answered. If.you don’t like the answer, tough. But please, if you take one thing away from this interaction, make it this; the Palestinians can’t, “forfeit some of their legal rights,” because of the actions of their government. What you’re describing is called, “Collective Punishment,” and it is literally a war crime. Congratulations, you reasoned your way into advocating for war crimes. Great job.

      The right to not be killed on a music festival outweighs the right to free water and electricity. It doesn’t make Israel and Hamas equally bad or rogue. And wether you name it collateral damage or collective punishment I guess that’s what war is like, sucks but always was like this and really there is no good way around it. Because what is the alternative? Israel directly supplying Hamas who they are at war with?

        It abso-fucking-lutely does not. A terrorist attack does not justify denying 2.5 million people access to water. You know, cause they die without it. And this isn’t new, Israel has been using water as a weapon since the sixties. Look up Israeli Military Order 158.

        Anyway, I think in done here. You’ve don’t know basic facts about the conflict, you’ve defended war crimes, and you’ve actually suggested other war crimes. You have no idea what you’re talking about and you’re an awful person. This is a waste of my time.

          The situation is just way more nuanced and not so simple as you make it out to be. Like did you note how Israel is actually not outright denying all supplies, they just want to not have it controlled by Hamas. That is a very reasonable thing and an absolute good faith try to keep the supplies going. If Hamas basically declines then how is it Israel denying water or starving millions of people? I don’t think Oslo accords demand for all supplies to go through your enemy military.
