Israel is going about this all wrong.
@Linux_Is_Best @ItsTrainingCatsAndDogs no offense, but is there ever a right way to go about genocide? They’ve been doing a quieter version of this for decades.
They have, while terrorist and fascist groups in Palestine, Iran, Syria, Yemen, etc. have been killing and threatening Israelis since its inception, not just due to WW1, but because they're Jewish people and close to Western ideologies.
The Levant should not have been conquered, but same as with Taiwan there is no justification to just undo a working democratic nation.
We need to recognize the rights of each side, not tolerate their crimes

(1.) The terrorist IDF is killing innocent children in Gaza. Nothing can justify that.
(2.) Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism for the same reason that anti-Nazism is not anti-Germanism.
(3.) Israel is not a "democratic nation," or even a nation at all. By definition, a nation has fixed borders.
@LevZadov @ekes @justpeachy @Linux_Is_Best @ItsTrainingCatsAndDogs (1) How should they defend themselves? I'm hearing a lot this kind of thing – describing Gaza as an open-air prison, and so on. But no coherent alternative IDF could be pursuing instead.
It would be great if there was some magical way Israel could end Hamas without any civilian casualties, but I don't know if that is possible. Like in WW2, we killed, what, like a million German civilians? That was awful. We probably could have done better. But certainly not 0, right?

Why are you defending genocide and apartheid?
@LevZadov @ekes @justpeachy @Linux_Is_Best @ItsTrainingCatsAndDogs You see the allies' actions in WW2 as "genocide"? They were *stopping* an actual genocide, although I don't think that was the main goal. Well, anyway, like I said, we could have done a lot better there, sure.

This earned you a block
@rticks @LevZadov @justpeachy @Linux_Is_Best @ItsTrainingCatsAndDogs Dude nobody cares if you block them.
