The officially stated goal of Hamas is the destruction of Israel.
War is never pleasant or desirable. That said, Israel has every right to defend itself and to fight for the return of its people.
Your position is that Israel should lay down and die. Any attempt to do otherwise is then disingenuously labeled as “genocide.”
The argument you are making is ridiculous. Fortunately, most people recognize that.
They’ve killed innocent civilians[2], health workers[3], and journalists[4] all in record numbers. They have not shied away from war crimes and humanitarian abuses [5].
Israel has every right to defend itself, but this has gone so far beyond that. There is no action that justifies this brutal of a reaction.
