So you are not upset about that, then? Do you justify the terror, cruelty, destruction and in the end, the genocide in Gaza, because some a guerrilla from Gaza had inflicted terror and cruelty before? Which is the next step? Do you realize that Israel has killed more innocent people in this attack than Al-Qaeda did in the 11S in 2001 in NYC? (it was ~3000 people) And that even wasn't as cruel because there weren't people artifically starving, they didn't destroy the hospitals, nor ny citizens weren't closed as a herd between militarized walls with no actual escape?
Of course. I don't defend Hamas. I'm blaming the Israel state for feeding them. They are corresponsible of the atrocities of Hamas, and are totally responsible for the palestinian holocaust they are perpretating.
Israel also can choose not to do mass-killings, it could discard mass-deportations (it plans deporting gazans to egypt sinai). It could stop the illegal and immoral settlements. It could stop all the oppression and violence it inflicts even to its own citizens, arabs and jews. Where in the world makes sense for you, blaming the entire palestinian people for the acts of a palestinian guerrilla, but you don't even blame the israel government for ordering a genocide they are actually doing? If I acted like you, I would say that all israelians deserve to die, to be expelled from their homes, because, you know, their army are savaging palestinians, they shoot innocent children even in "not-so-violent" moments, harass and let harass farmers... But I don't think that! I don't want jew people to die, come on! your logic is totally flawed.
Oh yes, sure. Tell it to the hundreds of thousands of inner displaced (quarter of gaza population already?).
You repeat the attrocities of Hamas, and say that Israel would not do that. Why don't you speak of the attrocities that Israel is commiting that palestinians would never do? Again, look yourself to the mirror. Are you a white racist guy with no love for humanity?
That's the trick. Terrorist are those who the media says it is. In my country, spraying some walls, voting, irrupting in fossil fuel conferences is considered terrorism. Read again my comments and look for "terrorism". It doesn't have a definition, so I don't use it, or use it widely. Let's speak of hatred. Of coaction. Of attrocities. Of crimes. Of innocent civilians killed. Then we may discover that white men racist attacks to refugee centers, check many of those boxes, the same boxes checked by those jihadist that are so inhuman. And wow, surprise, Israel is checking lots of boxes too!
Will you question your definitions and conceptions?
By the way. Isreael is an occidental colony in the middle east. Their goal is to conquer all Palestinian land, expel all arabs, aka do an ethnic cleanse (I'm sure they would prefer not having to kill them, right?) and what else? Do their peaceful militar business with the west? Their misinformation businesses? Purple-wash their politics while reducing freedom of expression and driving the israeli people to a religious dictatorship? Oh, smells like super-evil Iran btw.
You're absolutely insane. Terrorists invaded Israel and brutally killed 1500 people, and your response is, eh maybe it's not that bad. It's not about the volume of people killed, it's about the way they were killed and the sworn mission from Hamas to never stop. A mission they affirmed just a couple days ago when they announced they were not apologetic for their actions and they'd do it again. So, this is the response they'll get from Israel. In order for there to be peace, Hamas must be completely destroyed. You pretend that you don't support Hamas, but your eagerness to avoid any discussion of why Israel is doing what they're doing speaks to an irrational fixation. I doubt you're Palestinian or Israeli. You don't know what it's like living under hundreds of rockets launched at you every day, but you demand Israel return to that, and return to the threat of more terrorism on their civilians. They will not, and I don't see why I should prefer innocent Israelis dying over innocent Palestinians. If someone innocent is going to die, at least use their death in service of destroying terrorism so that one day there might be peace.

I wouldn't cite a fascist if he wasn't a minister of the Israel government. There is no self defense here, it's a slow motion invasion that lasts decades, aka, colonization process. And there is resistance, some of that is armed and some of that is cruel and totally mislead in my opinion.
You swallowed that there is no way Israel civilians will stop to be victimized. And therefore, let's the others be killed. This is the typical dehumanization thinking of "the enemy". It's that thinking that governments with interests in other's lands, resources, power, feed their citizens in order to get support for their wars.
Really, make the exercise of swapping Israel with Hamas in your comments, and you will read a jihadist terrorist message. You mutually feed your dehumanization. Stop that! Jihadists and those who support their attrocities are the problem. Israel governtment and those who support their attrocities are the problem. You are part of the problem, can't you see you see that? You can change something, then, gz!
And no, I don't know what is like to live under Hamas rockets, the same way I don't know what is like to live under a criminal apartheid with racists checkpoints, land stealing, impune killings, house burnings, permanent harassment and imprisonment just for standing up even without self defense violence (rocks against soldiers that are shooting "us"?)
You have commented nothing about all this long lasting violence. Good faith israelis are against ilegal settlements, occupation, military conscription, etc.
