HHH_is_the_game posted... I continue to be convinced that people that say Israel wants to "genocide" palestine, in context of this discussion (where Hamas literally wants to exterminate all the Jews) are just trying to troll or be edgelords. Like one group literally tells citizens where they are going to be bombing to try to minimize civilian casualties. That alone says a LOT. The other group targets civilians as their goal and constantly attempts to attack them.
Please imagine for a moment what would happen if Hamas had the same military power that Israel did. And as bad as you think Israel is to Palestine, if things were reversed they would be far worse. Israel is not great for sure but they are much better than Hamas and anybody drawing an equivalence....its just weird. People are defending people that are absolutely awful and would lead a country FAR worse than israel if given the chance.
Its true that Israel keeps a tight lock on Gaza and has treated them poorly but for people that talk about the open-air prison could that be because people from there are always trying to kill and terrorist attack the Israelis? And after the Holocaust where people LEGITIMATELY tried to genocide the Jews, they are most likely defensive of the one Jewish country that exists (which apparently people think should not exist)
Like people are just completely ignoring the role that anti-semitism plays in this.
You would honestly think the people talking about Hamas are on the right, not left, but apparently the left of all people have decided to support the genocidal terrorists and be proud of it?
None of this is to say that Israel is good or has not done bad things, but when held next to Hamas its not even the same level
Are you aware of what the Nakba was and it's role in creating the current state of Israel?
