42. Does someone who disagrees with you have to have an agenda?

Oct 2023

Look, I get suspicious too about people who have wildly different views. I mean I loathe the Repubs and Trump supporters. As I'm sure you do too or you wouldn't be here.

I am very agitated about the suffering of the people in Gaza. I was the same way the week before about the Hamas atrocities against Israelis.

I am anti-war, anti-terrorism, pro-human rights and I want to see a solution to the Palestinian's plight. I see this war in a different way than most here. It is already leading to so much suffering and may light up the whole region or worse. Creating more breeding grounds for terrorism and reducing everyone's security.

If you see that as an "agenda" fine. I see it as speaking my truth and I hope I will be allowed to do that.

I don't trust any of them... 2naSalit Oct 2023 #1

Then why did Israel tell hospitals to evacuate because they were going to bomb them? womanofthehills Oct 2023 #6
Bombs sometimes hit things even if it wasn't planned. BootinUp Oct 2023 #7
Gaza has a network of tunnels that cross the border. The entrances to them question everything Oct 2023 #8
They never told anyone they were going to bomb hospitals! LeftInTX Oct 2023 #10
If Hamas was using the hospital as a shield, covering, say, yagotme Oct 2023 #13
