Cowards, all the questions point out you support isresl
How dare Israel defend themselves.
Hamas put their people in danger the only reason why all those Palestinians died is because hamas sent missiles to israel what did they expect? if they r gonna send missiles to a country they will get missiles back it’s obvious
Palestine will be free ✌ï¸Â🇵🇸🇺🇸
israel not arrest the people of Palestine. go Israel police from filistin. if Israel will not go from filistin then we will have to war Israel. why have israel in filistin
Three or four families involved in court battle unlike execution in Gaza, and not one was evicted. About police who keep order. Reason was police called out to apprehend glass bottle Arab throwers atop mount hurling bottles down on Jewish worshippers then fleeing police into mosque with police in pursuit. Inside mosque police discovered fireworks in the making one of which ignited tree near mosque atop of mount. Police keep minorities from getting at each other's throat. Clueless Israel haters go crazy because as they shout, they want it all here and the world over even if you selectively fail to notice.
Hamas is the reason Palestine can't join the 21st century. This guy is trash
The extent of Israel's responsibility for conflict on Temple Mount may be shown by the fact that, the war being over, today Hamas is attacking Fatah on the Temple Mount
Hamas are tyrants! The only Palestinians they represent are the confused ones. It is absurd to think the rockets are an appropriate response to evicting squatters, or to the alleged "attack" on the temple mount. The only reason the IDF gets involved on the temple mount is to restore order (as a response). It is ridiculous to interview a Hamas spokesman and think that you are reporting the news.
Probably NOT !!!!!
Biden created the escalation.
Shame how misinformed you Americans or whoever you are, are.
Israel first was trying to remove people from their homes, and then attacked innocent worshippers. Hamas fired in retaliation so Israel stop bullying Palestinians and taking away their rights.
hamas shoots rockets from children's play grounds, they hide behind children, why would you talk with them?
So the media and folks in charge support whatever the opposite of right and whatever most people think
It was Hamas who organised the attacks on the police from the mosque initially and the Palestinians who were evicted were squatting in Jewish properties and not paying rent. Then again, would you expect a terrorist to tell the truth? ABC just broadcasting propaganda as usual.
I really don’t understand how people can call Hamas terrorists..they are a resistance movement..they RESPOND to what Israel is doing to the Palestinians
People are so STUPID..it’s mindblowing
We want peace
People are saying that the Palestinians didn’t pay thier rent.. u dumb fucks they own those places…israel has been illegally removing families from thier homies… but the worse part that started all of this is the israeli police attacking worshippers in al-aqsa mosque ‘the third holiest mosque in islam’ during Ramadan!!! And u wonder who started this… stop lieing to yourself and try to be a HUMAN who thinks for him self…even alot of jews hate the state of israel
The Hummas killing Palestinian kids and adding into Israel accounts.
Only one aim collection of money….
How you can lie like this Hamma spokesperson, how dare you to fire thousands of rocket residential place of Israel.
Now is telling like player defending from Israel.
This peoples are lying all the time for collecting money

You can’t start a war on innocent people and then play victim.
Hamas is sounding a lot more reasonable than Israel rn 🤆and Hamas is a terrorist organization
With all this talk of proportionality, let’s talk about the cause of this conflict and proportionality.
If Israel was indeed evicting Palestinians in Sheikh Jarrah, were the 700 rockets fired from Gaza a proportional response?
I would say no.
Was Israel’s response to Hamas proportional? Yes. Just because Israeli’s are protected by iron dome and bomb shelters and had way less deaths does not mean their response was overproportional, especially when Hamas is known for intentionally placing their people in danger and counting on the lopsided death toll and the ensuing bad press and pressure on Israel.
No they haven’t
ABC needs to consider inviting Charles Manson next time.
If Adolf Hitler was alive they’d invite him too.
Hamas is a terrorist groups period
If Palestine ever wants to be recognized as a legitimate state, maybe they should remove the terroristic organization from their government.
Word on the street is HAMAS is still a terrorist organization……same goal just a little less woke ðŸ˜Â
US media is in bed with Hamas and Joe Biden pays them millions. You just can't make this stuff up. The Democratic party is the modern day Jew-hating Nazi party.
So, you are telling me all Hamas is doing is asking for Israel to hold up their end of a deal that was made at the UN and not to commit war crimes against Palestinians like lynching them and treat them like animals and he will stop. How are we gonna act like he’s the aggressor. I don’t wish civilians death on either side, but when Palestinians protest for the forceful evictions of Palestinians and mistreatment they get shot at and arrested. What do you want them to do?
Pure propaganda. Hamas is on the threshold of unequivocal defeat. Hamas' latest provocation has initiated a predictable result, that is to say, the power of civilization exercising virtue over the brutality and ignorance of Islam.
Blah blah blah……lie lie lie…..blah blah blah. Big fat lie…..blah blah. Take care of business already Israel. Enough is enough. Hamas is killing Palestinians and Israel is defending itself. This “battle†would be over if Israel played by the same rules as Hamas. If they cared about there own people they would learn a lesson from passive resistance but they are TOO STUPID . Dr. ?
