Israel (now broader Mid East discussion)

Just look at some of the replies on the last few pages of this thread. Does it even matter what's true if you're losing the PR war?

No and that was sort of my point…. Israel knows there is no way to look good and kill all of Hamas here. So what’s the point of PR….? Taxpe pointed this out earlier. Part of the Hamas plan is to keep Israel fighting and looking bad doing it. That’s why they use human shields, tunnels under hospitals, disinformation, etc. they have no way to beat them otherwise.

There’s no high ground here for Israel to stand on currently. And while they have wide ranging support by their allies with Oct 7 still fresh in their minds. They are doing what they think they need to do to eradicate Hamas before that window closes and the “perception” changes when the next tragedy befalls the planet.
