    You also know that Israeli settlers do not represent Israelis in general, right ?

    same goes for the Hamas who do not represent all palestine people…

      It doesn’t matter. The settlers are protected and aided by the government. In an apartheid state where only 64% of the population is allowed to vote, all those who vote this government in are responsible.

        So by your logic every death in Gaza is completely fine, since the Palestinians in Gaza voted them in, about 20 years ago, and the Hamas committed a massacre on 7th October.

          No, not at all. They aren’t voted in and half the population of gaza is children, 67% are under the age of 24. Additionally, hamas is a response to apartheid and genocide. Hamas is Israel’s fault. You may find ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity acceptable, but I do not and will never.

            So you find Israel to be justified after getting attacked by Hamas, with several rapes and murders of innocent civilians, children included?

              You know for every Israeli civilian there are a couple of times more civilian casualties on the Palestinian side.

              And I do agree with the other comment that Hamas is in a way in power because of the oppression and ill treatment of the Palestinians.

                  I am not defending any type of violence. I am just saying that you cannot expect with violence to solve any problems. This is not the way for finding a peaceful solution to a problem, and this part of the world desperately needs long lasting peace.

                    Then go back to the old borders and they should leave each other in peace. but this whole Israel should go away is not acceptable.
