"The soldiers hear terrorists crying out from the depths of the tunnels: 'We're suffocating, can't get out.'"

"The IDF continues to enter and operate within the Gaza Strip, destroying infrastructure, command centers, and terrorists belonging to the murderous terrorist organization Hamas. Today (Thursday), there was progress in activities toward the heart of Gaza City, where the 'Nerve Center' of Hamas is located, aimed at dismantling the capabilities of the organization.

On 'Channel 12' news, it was reported that fighters in the field, engaged against Hamas tunnels, have heard voices emanating from beneath the ground, voices of Hamas militants hiding inside and speaking about being suffocated. 'We're trapped down here,' they say, and the external forces hear, 'We're suffocating, can't get out.'

Earlier, an IDF spokesperson updated that the combat team of the Nahal Brigade completed the takeover of Outpost 17, a military stronghold of the Hamas terrorist organization in northern Gaza's Jabalia area. During the takeover of the outpost, the soldiers engaged in combat against terrorists from Hamas and Islamic Jihad, both above ground and in subterranean spaces.

After 10 hours of fighting, the soldiers completed the takeover of the outpost. They eliminated terrorists, seized numerous combat assets, and exposed terror tunnel exits, including one near a children's park leading to expansive subterranean passageways. Throughout the takeover of the outpost, the Nahal Brigade fighters discovered and collected significant operational materials concerning the enemy's operational plans."

I'm starting to think Hamas is structured like a heimishe company. Everyone is an executive or top commander.

That's the way to success. Give everyone a Shtellar. Make them feel that the whole organization rests on them.

as opposed to now when Israel is pummeling Gaza and killing a lot of people which causes antagonization.

Moving here as to not derail the thread (too little too late?)

This is a misnomer. Look at the proponents of a ceasefire among elected officials and you will see that almost all of them called for a ceasefire on October 7th and 8th, before Israel had even quelled the attack, let alone begun fighting back. Israel fighting back is not causing antagonism, it is just the verbalized excuse for now

My point is simple (and I’m explaining someone else’s position, I don’t necessarily “agree”). Jews weren’t “antagonizing” anyone during the Holocaust because they didn’t fight back. There were no mass demonstrations against Jews in the US during the Holocaust, correct me if I’m wrong.

I am completely confused.

Were the Partisans or Warsaw and other uprisings antagonizing?
The mass protests were taking place before Israel had launched its attack, nothing to do with being antagonized by Israel's attacks.

No, they weren’t killing civilians that had sympathizers by the hundreds of thousands in Countries around the globe.

To the same extent?

Ok, but the dynamics are totally different. The Jews were clearly victims and the Nazis the aggressor.

There also was no internet (for information/disinformation to spread), or wokeness.

Pretty much. There were tens of thousands around the world already on Oct 7 and 8, but the very first weekend after the attack, October 13 and 14 had humungous protests in all major cities around the world, many seeing tens of thousands. Campuses and such had protests the week of Oct 8th

Not in the minds of the Nazis or their supporters.
