      “Deeply racist views” are you saying that Jews are racist? I don’t think I’ve heard that…

        What an inane question. Of course they aren’t saying all Jews are racist. They’re saying that the people in charge of Israel are deeply racist. They also happen to be Jewish, but that isn’t really a factor.

      Yeah, they should really stop killing their own people. Over 30,000 Palestinians, many of them children, dead at the hands of Hamas!

      Good thing Israel’s there to stop this horrible genocide and restore order.

            I’m not in charge of Israeli military policy, and im not here to justify their actions. But maybe Hamas should have considered the extent of retaliation when they started a war with them by murdering 1200 innocents.

            That was my whole point. By starting a war with Israel, they clearly had very little to zero consideration for the Palestinian people.

              You are literally justifying their actions. Justifying the murder of well over 30 thousand.

                No, my argument is that if Hamas actually cared about “their people”, they wouldn’t have started a war against a much stronger enemy who has proven to have very little care for causing civilian loss.

                I’m not justifying Israel’s actions

                  You are putting the responsibility for those murders entirely on Hamas rather than the government currently perpetrating them, thus justifying that government’s actions. You could have just as easily made your opening comment, “Man, if only Israel cared about international law.” Please stop insulting my intelligence.

                And many of the civilians were killed by the IDF, not Hamas. We don’t have an exact figure because Israel refuses any investigation into the matter.

          Honestly, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if, in the inevitable Israel Nuremberg Trials, it comes out that the Israeli government intentionally instigated or even carried out the October 7 attack in order to generate sympathy and as a pretext for its genocide.

            They might have let it happen intentionally and pulled Gaza troops to the West Bank beforehand.

            But the way israel went full mask off Nazi mode and threw its entire global reputation away over the last 7 months does not indicate that everything is going according to plan.

              Like how? I mean do you and people upvoting you really think there will be some trial for Israel leaders? Right now we in the situation where military support for them is increasing. And the tendency is it will increase further. What do you imagine might change?

                I don’t think there will be a trial. I just think it’s plausible, but not extremely likely, that Israel’s fascist government would be willing to plan or at least support an attack on its own citizens in order to obtain a mandate to take Palestine

    I think we all knew this was going to happen… Hamas attacked and killed innocent Jewish people…Israel is going to make a statement, that if you ever do that again, we’ll go in and wipe you out…including Palestines who are caught in the middle…

      some of the people werent even jewish, its kind of racist to suggest everyone killed was jewish just because its Israel.

      I’m sure all the children Netanyahu has slaughtered will learn the lesson that if you attack the state of Israel, it will use that as an excuse to commit genocide.

        Oh geez…what ISN’T considered racist nowadays…Israel is doing what they think will prohibit another random attack…the Palestinian people are not all innocent. They continually support and vote for Hamas leaders. The majority of their people want Jews dead. It’s the same crap with other middle east countries like Saudi Arabia and Iran…sure, there’s some good people, but the overwhelming majority support their strict government and the people that make the laws…it’s not as easy as we all think for Israel just to target military members of Hamas when all the people there support them, protect them, and harbor them…
