How can you fight a war and not have civilian casualties? Do you know how to do that? Are you saying Hamas should just get away with Oct 7th? What should be done? Don't pretend I'm defending civilian casualties I am absolutely not.

I'm quite literally not. But the way your acting is why nobody can have an actual truthful conversation about that's happening.

They aren't targeting civilians. This is Internet misinformation. If you actually look at what's happening instead of getting all your information from social media comments. Hamas is embedded underneath civilians. Hamas has said they want civilian deaths.

It absolutely is. Genocide is a terrible despicable thing and if you look up the actual definition what is happening doesn't qualify. We should support Israel in this particular conflict. I don't even like Biden but what he's doing the correct thing. There is still have zero chance I'm supporting trump just because of this conflict.

You didn't even respond to what I actually said. You just repeated some phrase you've probably used before. It's not a genocide because if the leadership gave up and they released their civilian hoststeges the war would be over. That's how you know its not a genocide. If it was a genocide it wouldn't matter if the leaders gave up or if they released the hoststeges.

It's literally not a genocide. If Hamas gave up the hostages and their leaders who committed Oct 7th the war would end. That's how you know it's not a genocide. With facts and logic and stuff.

I didn't say I have no knowledge of the subject or did I ask you to teach me geopolitics. I asked you to explain your opinion on the matter. When it comes to understanding someone's opinion I find it best to ask the person directly. But you haven't really responded to any of my questions so I'm still pretty confused about it for the most part. I'll read the article you posted. But it seems you think the civilian casualties give Hamas the right to do what they did and Israel just should take it and not respond. If this is what you think definitely disagree. It's ok if you don't believe me. All I can do is say what I'm doing and you take it however you want.

Well if I'm being honest from what I know it sure doesn't seem like Israel punched first. Can you educate me in what you mean by killing more civilians? Like are you talking about similar retaliatory attacks killing civilians more civilians. Because currently I understand why is Israel is killing more civilians. I'm not arguing it's right. I don't think there is a right answer here. I do think the context of the attacks matters. Hamas has stated very clearly they intend on perpetrating Oct 7th again and again. Jews being in their holy land is literally against their religion they have said this repeatedly. You can ask a Hamas solder why he's fighting and he will tell you this. Can you provide an alternative to what Israel is doing? I've asked several times. I wish I had an answer.

Yes I want you to explain how the extreme brutality of what Hamas soldiers did on Oct 7th compares to Israel relating. Have you watched the videos? I'm not denying the treatment of Palestine citizens by Israel but that does not give Hamas the right to do what they did on Oct 7th. Again watch the videos Hamas themselves recorded during the attack. They killed those people because their religion told them to. Hamas themselves said they will keep doing it again and again. I understand the death toll is high. But again what would you rather do? I'm just trying to understand your logic. I don't know how to wage war but I can take an educated guess that it's pretty difficult to tell the difference between a Gaza citizen and a Hamas solders as they don't wear any kind of uniform and purposely hide amongst civilians. I'm not defending killing civilians in asking what your alternative strategy would be. Or how you think Israel and us should respond. Because zero response is an unacceptable answer.

I'm so very confused by this situation. For those who are against supporting Israel. Can you explain to me rationally why you think Hamas doesn't deserve to be wiped out after Oct 7th? I'm not denying the civilian casualties I agree it is unacceptably high But that doesn't caragotize what's happening as a genocide. But Hamas has said they want a high casualty rate they are using their civilians as human shields. Would you really suggest Hamas should just be able to get away with Oct 7th because they are hiding behind their people. Like what is your answer if you were the one making the choice here? Please I know this is an inflammatory topic but I promise I'm only trying to understand your opinion on the matter.
