The reason why Palestinian groups like Hamas want the land completely for themselves is religious. They claim that Palestine is only really theirs when it's "pure Muslim". You can read this in the charta of the Hamas and also in the quotes of their leaders.

How is that not based on religion? Jews were living there before as well and many Palestines want them completely gone because they are Jews.

I am talking about Palestinians not Hamas. My words were clear up there.

This equating of Hamas and Palestinians is pretty lame imo.

But equating Israelis with the Israelian military is fine?

[–] snek@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Could you point to where I did that?

This is a quote from you:

Israel has killed full Palestinian families in Gaza. This isn’t people “caught in the crossfire”. This is Israel bringing the crossfire to their beds and homes. This is Israel’s continuing ethnic cleansing.

I am still waiting for the part where I equated Israelis with the Israeli govt and forces.... How much longer do I need to wait until you read that paragraph again and realize you were wrong?

[–] snek@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I will ask you again which part in this is the one where I equate the Israeli government with Israeli civilians.

Thanks.

Israel is a country and the state has killed full families. Reading comprehension is a good skill to have, maybe brush up.
