Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders said Sunday he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible in the Israel-Hamas war with “an organization like Hamas” involved.
“I don’t know how you can have a ceasefire, (a) permanent ceasefire, with an organization like Hamas, which is dedicated to turmoil and chaos and destroying the state of Israel,” Sanders told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union” Sunday.
Innocent human lives. (Which the Jsraeli government is of course also carelessly discarding. But that’s why I think Sanders’ position is the most reasonable. We should definitely demand Israel greatly reduce the military force it’s exerting, but a total ceasefire might not be entirely realistic)
We lose “innicent human lives” in a ceasefire attempt? The killing will increase?
Also you really don’t need to reiterate a very obvious typo. Ideally the goal here should be to have some form of dialogue that works towards the goal of understanding each other better and increasing knowledge, not ridiculing each other. It’s pretty poor form imo.
If I were going to correct what you got wrong when quoting you, I could just swap your post with my own.
Ok, so you’re not imterested in sincere dialogue. Have a good day then.
Wouldn’t misquoting you be the insincerity?
What’s your proposal to reduce civilian casualties more than a ceasefire would? Seems like an impossibility to me.
Well not compared to the current situation, but that it would possibly be an increase compared to the most civilian sparing scenario. Obviously the situation should be deescalated to the maximum amount possible, but I don’t think it’s a realistic scenario to assume that if the current main aggressor (Israel) were to cease military action completely, no more civilian lives would be lost.
