But massacring 20000+ civilians is A-okay for you in your bizzaro world. Expressing heartfelt sorrow for 1200 people many of whom were killed by the IDF themselves, while gloating, cheering, jeering and egging on war crimes and genocide, is racism 101.
But I don't "gloat, cheer and jeer", not am I a "racist", except in the fantasy world of you and your friends.
Here is my position.
Israel has no option but to remove Hamas after the rocket attack campaign and 7 October and the statements that Hamas intends to continue to attack Israel.
NO COUNTRY is going to allow a hostile regime to continue to attack its civilians.
Hamas has embedded in the civilian population in Gaza and this makes it impossible to remove Hamas without inflicting material damage and civilian casualties. So these happen. Israel has taken steps to limit these as required by international law. So no "war crimes". And no "genocide". The civilian casualties are not excessive, given the urban battlefield. I know you don't accept that; but urban fighting always involves very heavy civilian casualties. There's a bunch of information out there on that.
This is bad, as is the food shortage. But
NO COUNTRY is going to allow a terror regime to actively operate on its borders. And neither will Israel. The only alternative to the events unfolding now is if Hamas were to give back the hostages and surrender. Hamas will not do that. So the war is going to play out for a couple more weeks with more civilian suffering.
The Hamas leadership will milk the photos of suffering Palestinian kids for more $$$$ because Hamas dgaf about their own people. They love "martyrs". Listen to any Hamas leader being interviewed.
If Israel launched an unprovoked ghastly attack on Gaza on 7 October, my sympathies would be reversed.
How upset are you about the completely unnecessary civilian casualties Hezbollah is currently inflicting on Israel? You don't seem to give a shit about those? Why, Kauty? Because those civilians being killed are white (some of them) and not brown?
So go put me back on mute.
