      Israel’s bombing civilians indiscriminately and you’re blaming the Palestinians for resisting in a way besides killing themselves. You literally suggested self immolation. You explicitly said, literally killing themselves would be less futile than violence at the border.

      And you think that makes Hamas the Nazi analogue.

          I cannot imagine the belief set necessary to think that’s a defense.

          So they’ve killed over a thousand people, bombed apartments to dust, demanded a whole city depopulate overnight, bombed the places those refugees were told to go, bombed the border crossings, etc., etc., etc. - and that’s deliberate. That’s the measured response! That’s what they did on purpose, with forethought.

          And you suggested those victims of collateral damage should have SET THEMSELVES ON FIRE and DIED IN PROTEST, because that would’ve gone better. Like they should be thankful that Israel’s not, in your own words, ready to commit genocide.

          This is the shit I would say as a vicious condemnation of Israel. This is damning criticism of their conduct, when they have all the land and all the power and all the money, and their victims primarily resist by throwing rocks. How in the name of god do you write this crap and still think that’s positive, for Israel?

          Where do you get off comparing-- “the return of the terror they unleashed it on your neighbors,” meaning Palestine, terrorizing Israel?! Israel! The modern military discriminately blowing up apartments! The force you glibly suggest could end it all - “otherwise this would be over!” - with just a little killing the entire population?

              Phew yeah good thing Israel’s only killed orders of magnitude more Palestinians than Hamas has killed Israelis, up until this one retaliatory event that retroactively justifies all that death and destruction. That’s classic Good Guy behavior. Just mumble the tiniest mote of criticism and pretend the alternative, singular, is an additional order of magnitude.

              Palestine is lucky Israel doesn’t want the problem solved, finally.

              Uh huh.
