I… don’t even know where to start with this. You really drank the Kool-Aid, huh?
You’re bending over backwards to defend Hamas, and most of what you’ve said so far has only hurt your case. I cannot fathom what made you think that comparing the October 7 attacks to universally reviled U.S. military interventions would convince anyone that Hamas is anything more than the truly repulsive organization that it is. That argument is also meaningless unless you consider those interventions to be acceptable, which at best means you haven’t spent much time considering the implications of your arguments.
I also suspect you haven’t noticed the utter lack of pragmatism in your statements. If the October 7 attacks are justified and Hamas believes it should continue such attacks, Israel will not stop until every single Hamas soldier is dead out of a now genuine need for self-preservation. If 67% or 90% civilian casualties don’t matter, then the piles of Palestinian bodies don’t matter either. Unless you draw the line specifically at children, which you previously said you do not.
The only insane takes are the ones you are making. You would be out here condemning Hamas if they had a 1% civilian casualty rate but you have no problem sucking up to the IDF it seems.
There is one party that is blocking the path to peace and it's israel. That has been the truth for 75 years. If you believe that Palestinians should all just lay down and die without resisting up you might as well grow a nice Mustache and put a Buddhistic symbol on your wall.
Palestinians have tried every form of peaceful protest .In the West-Bank there are israeli terrorists shooting children to steal houses and Hamas doesn't even exist there.
“You take my water, burn my olive trees, destroy my house, take my job, steal my land, imprison my father, kill my mother, bombard my country, starve us all, humiliate us all, but I am to blame: I shot a rocket back.”― Noam Chomsky
I have said literally nothing in support of the IDF. What part of my belief that the invasion of Palestine is unjustifiable don’t you understand?
Yeah, no shit the trillion-dollar country is the instigator here. I never said anything to the contrary…
This will be my last comment. It’s becoming increasingly clear that you’ve run out of steam, and possibly brain cells.
