    I didn’t excuse any of the actions by any of war participants. I am just saying that the war probably won’t end until one is successful with their genocide. I don’t like how Israel is killing mostly innocent people and I don’t support the actions of Hamas either.

    Edit: As many misunderstood this I want to clarify, that I wanted to stay as objective as possible with that answer. Obviously the Palestinians are not committing genocide, they are being killed by thousands. However I think they would commit genocide if they could. That’s just my opinion.

      Imagine “both-sidesing” a genocide. There’s no “genocide” against zionism. Even if this weren’t an unrealistic and wacky fantasy, zionism is a cult not an ethnic group. It’s powered by the largest empire in history. There is literally no genocide of zionists. Not possible in theory or reality.

      Did you feel equally bad for the nazis? Jews, roma, queers, and many other people would certainly have “genocided” the nazis during ww2, right? The war couldn’t end without someone being “genocided”, right? JFC.

      And again nazism and zionism are both just cults, not ethnic groups. This is important because people can’t change their ethnicity, but they can change their ideology from genocidal to humane. Many many people have already done this.

      It’s only the most brainwashed who are extremely committed to genocide. Disgustingly this is mostly children. That’s why zios are constantly recruiting children from around the world to commit genocide. No different from nazi youth organizations.

        They’re also forcing the small number of Palestinian children who they left alive into a feeling of rage and intense hatred. A feeling that will only build up over their lives until all those kids want is to destroy Israel.

        This gives Israel more self justification for their actions, which is the whole point of this.

      Well for one thing, your insistence on calling it a war with two active participants is gross minimizing of the ACTUAL role of Israel, which is that of one of the biggest and most advanced militaries in the history of humanity systematically eradicating a civilian population and framing it as self defense.

      probably won’t end until one is successful with their genocide

      More fundamentally dishonest framing making Hamas appear many times stronger than they are, thus making it seem like Israel is fighting for its survival when what it’s doing is systematically eradicating a civilian population

      I don’t like how Israel is killing mostly almost exclusively innocent people

      Fixed that for you and neither do I.

      and I don’t support the actions of Hamas either.

      Me neither, but you’re treating them as of they’re in any way the equals of Israel, or even in control of the outcome of anything.

      You can play innocent all you want, but whether it’s on purpose or not, your framing makes untrue assumptions that skew the picture far away from anything even REMOTELY resembling reality.
