Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Okay. Because you didn't indicate any of my logic was incorrect. Do we both agree Hamas is lying about their intention to release two hostages with no strings attached? The demonstration of the lie is the fact that they haven't done it.
Everything you said about the intent of Israel may or may not be true, but that's not the subject here. This whole post is about Hamas lying about wanting to release hostages. It has nothing to do with Israel.
No, we don't agree. For me it's inconclusive.
I don't see how this is more about Hamas and less about Israel, so maybe we aren't discussing stuff on the same level.
The post, and the news article it references, are about Hamas saying they want to release two people. We've discussed multiple ways they could release two people without interference by Israel. Israel not cooperating with Hamas may or may not be true. But it's a non sequiter. If I told you I wanted to pay my rent, but President Shanmugaratnam wouldn't agree with me on my plan to pay rent, you would rightly think that's nonsense, it's a non sequitur, the president of Singapore has nothing to do with me paying rent. Israel has nothing to do with Hamas releasing hostages to the Red Cross, or the UN, or to Egypt. These are independent things.
He is just pro hamas and bitiching when you call him out. You dont need ANYTHING to relase People. Just hand them over. It was done an uncountable Number of times in the History of Mankind. But Snek want to blame Israel. Thats it. Nothing more and nothing less.
