Israel (now broader Mid East discussion)

Those question could perhaps be best answered by you if you were to phrase them as statements.

I think the record is clear, it's been a constant aspect for year, Hamas stages these things. Sometimes it's real, other times it's staged. This time I have no reservations in thinking it was staged.

The record isn't clear. What evidence do you have that this is a constant pattern in this conflict?

Forgive me if I have some distrust in folks who spread lies about beheaded Israeli babies on October 7th yet ignore actual pictures, video, and other empirical evidence of beheaded Palestinian babies from US-made bombs.

I don't always think they are staged, only when I see flaws in the presentation of the slaughter. Sometimes it looks like bodies have been moved. So on and so forth.

Israelis play the camera lens as well, I see examples of those too.

Here's a question for you @SamAndreas

How much evidence would it take and what kind (method) for you to believe that Israel is intentionally massacring civilians and committing war crimes?

If you could, please be specific.
