    All the innocents were put in unnecessary danger by Hamas

    Yeah, because Gaza is just FULL of places for Hamas to hide where there’s absolutely no civilians around! 🙄

    committing a heinous terrorist attack.

    True, but the horrific slaughter of 1200 innocent civilians doesn’t justify the IDF committing genocide, horrifically slaughtering at least 30000 innocent civilians so far.

    the IDF didn’t start this war, Hamas did

    The conflict is one of the most powerful and advanced militaries in the history of the world committing genocide on mostly civilians. That’s not a war.

    And it didn’t start in October. It started over 75 years ago with the Nakba, which was a campaign of pro-Israel terrorism to kill and displace Palestinians to make room for settlers.

      To your first point, that’s exactly what I mean. They started a war and went and hid amongst civilians. They are the war criminals.

      And miss me with all the 75 years ago bit, this specific war started on Oct 7. Hamas picked a fight they knew they could not win and were willing to put all innocent Palestinians at risk.

      We can argue about IDF tactics all we want, but the blood is on Hamas’ hands
