We've been down this road before.

Accusing Israel of weaponizing the Holocaust to perpetrate "genocide" against the Palestinians is thinly veiled antisemitism.

Leftist propaganda drivel.

Really? You're going to reference Wikipedia (which has been taken over by anti-Zionist activists) and Al Jazeera? Come on. Maybe learn some actual history before you start spewing your opinions on a 100-year old conflict.

LOL, do you think posting links from obscure left-wing websites is going to convince me?

Oh by the way, it's kind of racist to suggest that Palestinians only know how to respond to violence by becoming terrorists.

CBC, BBC...it figures. Both are very left-wing organizations with a strong anti-Israel bias.

Isreal could have ended their border threat decades ago by NOT KILLING CIVILIANS.>

You mean like when they withdrew from Gaza and handed it over to the Palestinians in 2005? How did that work out? Or maybe you're referring to 1973, when Arab nations invaded on the holiest day in the Jewish religion and almost succeeding in destroying Israel? Or perhaps you're referring to 1948...oh no wait, that's when Arab countries invaded Israel immediately after it declared independence. I'm noticing a pattern here, aren't you?

 

Fascinating episode from Einat Wilf's podcast in reference to an article she co-wrote with two Arabs who support peaceful coexistence with Israel shortly after the Abraham Accords were signed. The most interesting part of the discussion comes up at around 10:15 where she talks about the silencing of voices like these by Western progressives. The tl/dr: Pro-peace Arab voices are silenced by Western progressives because that perspective conflicts with their decolonization anti-Zionist narrative, so these voices hurt the cause.
