    Every soverign nation has the right to self defense. Where Israel is going astray is the the same way the US went astray following 9/11… attacking and killing the wrong people and committing war crimes.

    If Israel was ONLY targeting Hamas, nobody would have a problem with that.

    The problem is the people in power in Israel see the Hamas takeover in 2007 as “Well, they’re all Hamas.”

      Where Israel is going astray is the fact that they are an apartheid state (and always have been) and are performing a genocide.

      As bad as we were after 9/11, we weren’t doing that.

      If Israel was ONLY targeting Hamas, nobody would have a problem with that.

      Yeah, in an alternate reality where they weren’t committing genocide, nobody would care. We don’t live in that reality, they are performing genocide and we are helping.

      Stop trying to pretend they aren’t with hypotheticals.

      The problem is the people in power in Israel see the Hamas takeover in 2007 as “Well, they’re all Hamas.”

      Yes, they are doing genocide. We should stop them, or at least stop arming and supporting their genocide.

      I still genuinely fail to see how this isn’t blatant genocide denial when you are actively trying to justify Israels ongoing genocide and our support for it. Wtf.
