    Recent polls show 81% of the Israeli population agree that Palestine should be ethnically cleansed. It’s not just the government, and it’s not “incompetence”, it’s deliberate malice.

    And Hamas’s crimes are a drop in the ocean compared to Israel, so if you think Hamas “deserves nothing but be deleted and forgotten by all of history,” what do you think Israel deserves?

      They’re both terrorists, why try to defend hamas? A bad situation doesn’t excuse massacre. Both are guilty.

        One’s guilty of genocide, one’s arguably guilty of going overboard in self-defense of said genocide, though I don’t know how much of it is hasbara and how much of it real so I don’t really feel like I’m in a position to judge if they actually went overboard and you can thank the Apartheid Regime of West Palestine for that.

      You explain it very well. However, I don’t think it’s necessarilly their opinion that Gaza deserves deleting.
