No, Israel has set the bar lower through apartheid and genocide.
That's way worse than just targeting civilians.
Israel's been doing that for years already.
And still your genocide continues.

That's way worse than just targeting civilians.
Israel's been doing that for years already.
And still your genocide continues.
No, you keep saying it but its still not true.
This war was triggered by Israeli settler attacks and an attack on the Al Aqsa.
This war has been triggered by a 75 year long occupation and apartheid rule.
How smart is Netanyahu looking?
He's now a terrorist responsible for genocide and Israel is a bigger pariah state than North Korea or Russia.
And Palestinians still are the demographic majority.
No, your celebration of this kind of thing sets the bar way lower.
There is no apartheid. Israel treats its' citizens equally, unlike S.Africa.
Israel wants to destroy Hamas.
Hamas is not an ethnicity.
Killing members of Hamas, a terrorist organization, is not genocide.
How soon before they start using tattoos?
Palestinians in Gaza are being killed, Palestinians in the West Bank are being killed and ethnically cleansed.
Israel is apartheid, your whining is pathetic.
Israel's apartheid against Palestinians
Palestinians are systematically subjected to home demolitions and forced evictions, and live in constant fear of losing their homes. For more than 73 years, Israel has been forcibly displacing entire Palestinian communities. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians’ homes have been demolished...

Apartheid
The Israeli regime enacts in all the territory it controls (Israeli sovereign territory, East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip) an apartheid regime. One organizing principle lies at the base of a wide array of Israeli policies: advancing and perpetuating the supremacy of one group –...
Israel’s occupation of Palestinian Territory is ‘apartheid’: UN rights expert
Calling on the international community to accept and adopt the recent findings in his report, an independent human rights expert said on Friday that “apartheid is being practiced by Israel in the occupied Palestinian territory”.
Ceasefire already.
Stop the killing.
End apartheid.
Stop the killing.
End apartheid.
'I stand by anything I say': City council candidate defends comments supporting child marriage, Holocaust (msn.com)
Nasr Hussain, who is one of six candidates running for three seats on the Hamtramck, Michigan city council, is doubling down on extreme comments he made online about child marriage, the Holocaust, and homosexuality.
According to the Detroit Metro Times, Hussain recently referred to the genocide of six million Jews during the Holocaust as "God's advance punishment" for the "savagery they're committing" against Palestinians in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. Hussain then went on to compare Israel to Nazi Germany.
"A heinous act proving they're as savage and cruel as the Nazis themselves who tormented them, or maybe even worse," Hussain wrote.
POLL: Should Trump be allowed to hold office again?
In a separate post to his Facebook page responding to an article about an adult man marrying a girl who has reached puberty, Hussain wrote in support of the act.
"She was betrothed at six, marriage consummated at nine after reaching puberty and giving her consent," Hussain wrote. “Women reach puberty between 8 and 12. If she was ok with it and her parents were ok with it why does it bother you."
And in another post about homosexuality, Hussain suggested LGBTQ+ Americans were "infected" and that the existence of homosexual Americans posed a danger to the country.
"If the majority of society becomes infected with homosexual then this society is gone," Hussain wrote.
Hussain refused to walk back any of his comments when the Metro Times contacted him. The publication said he refused a phone interview and replied to their interview request in writing.
Hussain called the Holocaust comments "a hypothetical and thought-generating question to make the Zionists think about what they’re doing to the innocent Palestinians hopefully making them think and ponder about the level of depravity they have reached."
The candidate also refused to apologize for his comments denigrating the LGBTQ+ community.
"Homosexuality leads to the destruction of societies therefore it should not be encouraged and should be prevented from spreading," he wrote.
And when asked about his post defending child marriage, Hussain stood by his comment, saying child marriage could lower abortion rates.
"If someone, whether a boy or a girl, under 18 is mature psychologically and physically, sexually active and expresses a desire to marry then they should be allowed to with the permission of their parents and court approval," Hussain told the Metro Times. "Thousands of teenagers under the age of 16 get pregnant all over the country becoming single mothers raising their children alone or resorting to the horrendous experience of abortion because society removed the option of getting married and raising the child in a loving, caring family."
"I stand by anything I say," Hussain said when asked if he had any regrets about his posts.

If it was about being muslim I would consider all israeli arabs to be dangerously radicalized as well, but I don't. There goes your argument.
Oct. 7.
You reap what you sow. Hamas did the sowing and because of that they are forcing the reaping on the people that they are supposed to serve.
yeah perhaps I'd be blowing innocent people up and taking hostages or support those who do and perhaps they would exterminate me as a vermin and perhaps I would not complain...not sure how this reasoning is helpful
What I'm asking of you is not a trick. The only one trying to play a trick is you. You think that you can trick everybody into pretending that you don't support the Oct. 7 attack. But you have and continue to do so by continually justifying it.
By excluding the date you are doing your typical song and dance of avoiding a direct answer to a simple question trying to establish if you are sincere in your assertions. Clearly you are not sincere and you are lying when you say that you condemn terrorism and violence against civilians. It is undeniable that there was violence against civilians on Oct. 7, yet you can't bring yourself to say condemn it.
Why is it that you can specifically refer to Al-Aqsa and condemn Israel but you cannot specifically refer to Oct. 7 and condemn Hamas?
How about if Biden and Blinken say they are doing it?
Who'd you support if it was Biden vs. trump in '24?
Who'd you support in '20 Biden vs. trump?
I guess it went over your head.
Israel is attacking much more in the north than the south.
The north is a more dangerous area.
The south is a less dangerous area.
Hence the south is safer than the north for Gazan civilians.
Israel warned them to go south since there would be LESS bombing, not NO bombing.
Yet Hamas did not want them to go to the south.
Is any of this registering with you frank or do you still not get it?
Using civilians as shields is a war crime and it precedes a bullet being fired or a bomb being dropped.
Hamas thought that doing that would help them be protected, because they are cowards. Israel is calling their bluff. Hamas is sacrificing their people at every turn. And the people of Gaza are coming to that realization.
