It’s important to recognize that contrary to what our mainstream media reports this lopsided bloodbath did NOT start on October 7th. It started with Israel’s Apartheid occupation and total subjugation and the following decades of absolute control of Palestinians and the gradual violent theft of Palestinian land by Israel though it’s illegal settlements. Palestine has brought up the atrocities 46 times to the World Court but blocked by US and has had numerous protests in Gaza over the years. The world ignored their plight and labeled them “terrorists “. It’s difficult to think of what other options were available to Hamas although I don’t support violence.

Have the Palestinians been allowed to vote for any government other than the “terrorist” government that “terrorist”Netinyahu supported financially to keep deligitimizing Palestinians within the past 16 years? Did the 3 year old that the War Criminal made an orphan and blow off its legs vote for Hamas? Spare me the victimhood argument trying to distract from the REAL issue of Israel’s Apartheid for the past 40years! Of course no one is in favor of Oct 7th. But that doesn’t warrant inflicting 40,00 similar Oct 7 tha on Gazans. What other options that hadn’t already been tried by Hamas so you believe were available to them to bring their plight to the world’s attention?

Not murder, rape, and beheadings to start.

They should have never voted Hamas in in the first place. Read Son of Hamas and deprogram yourself.

Once again, you're completely full of shit. The fact that you keep telling people to de-program themselves while you endlessly repeat AIPAC talking point is hilarious. Get the fuck outta here and delete your fucking account, you drooling moron.

And Hamas never killed innocent people with suicide bombers in the early Intifadas.

Read son of Hamas and edumacate yourself. It is written by one of the founders of Hamas and debunks all your horseshit. Hamas is a death cult and Palestinians even after all the death still support them. So they are unfortunately the author of their own destruction.

You are repeating Hamas talking points. Hamas is on record that they want to wipe Israel off the map!

You should read "Son of Hamas" if you want the real truth.

So it is justified in your mind that Hamas was okay in murdering women and children? That is pretty sick!

Do you think Israel isn't murdering women and children (and men), and hasn't been for nearly 80 years? I love how you just pop up with your easily disproven talking points and refuse to respond to any questions anyone is posing to you. Pretty sick!

In warfare a war that Hamas started on Oct 7 th there is collateral damage. Collateral damage is a horrific thing but a by product of warfare. Look up Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

And David, as in the sectarian violence in Northern Ireland there will be no peace in this region until the Palestinians decide they want it. Hamas is dedicated to wiping out Israel. To say anything else is disingenuous.

You are the one with talking points. What is happening in Gaza is collateral damage. What happened to Jews in WW2 was genocide. You have no understanding of history . You should read Son of Hamas and get the inside story on your heroes.
