Only Palestinian children innocent , all Palestinian adults ?

Maremia Sun 05-Oct-25 09:10:42

Because we know for absolute certainty that all of the children on both sides of this conflict are innocent. I was trying to find a commonality, that EVERYONE on here could agree with.
Are you thus able to agree that Palestinian children are among the innocent?
Are you AnnieB?

Depends on age

Okay then Annie, over to you . Give us your definition, if you so chose, of when a child is old enough to no longer be considered 'innocent'?

It’s known that teenagers as young as 16 and 17 took part in the 7th October atrocities and were later caught by the IDF.
At what age innocence ends is an unknown.

Oreo Sun 05-Oct-25 13:39:45

Time to look forwards now tho, and hope that this week will bring a return of all hostages and the end of this conflict.

For once I agree with you. Keep safe.

Maremia Sun 05-Oct-25 13:44:27

Everyone waits in hope.

Yes and a poster said they were children who threw stones

Maremia Sun 05-Oct-25 16:48:28

Sadly no. Bombing still ongoing, and no news, that I can see, about the hostages.

lixy Sun 05-Oct-25 16:52:23

But we hope and hope Maremia. There is always an outburst before it stops, so we hope some more.
The darkest hour is before the dawn.

Maremia Sun 05-Oct-25 16:57:37

Lovely thought lixy.

Maremia Tue 07-Oct-25 11:41:26

Two years on, and at last a chance of peace.

Smileless2012 Tue 07-Oct-25 11:48:07

It's appalling that the bombing continues while peace talks are being held. Is this what a government does when it really wants peace?

And Hamas continue to fire rockets into Israeli border towns.

They should both stop while peace negotiations are taking place.

ronib Tue 07-Oct-25 12:01:26

I thought that too Smileless2012but the obvious question is never asked - what areas of Gaza are being targeted and is this to remove Hamas?

Maremia Tue 07-Oct-25 13:00:20

On this day, of all sad days, Netanyahu got his numbers wrong . The Hostage Families replied 'There are 48, not40, not 46, and all taken on your watch'.
Just do it. Your best effort. Too long now.

AGAA4 Tue 07-Oct-25 13:09:57

We can only hope for peace. This dreadful war has gone on for too long. So many killed. People suffering on both sides.

Smileless2012 Tue 07-Oct-25 13:13:38

You'd think he'd know Maremia.

All taken by elected government of Gaza

Smileless2012 Tue 07-Oct-25 13:16:54

And the precise number of the remaining hostages not known by the PM of the elected government of Israel.

They should have made a quick phone call to ask ? Hamas government are honourable and would give the truth!

Maremia Tue 07-Oct-25 13:26:33

Does that ignorance demonstrate how low the hostages have been in his priorities?
