    I’ve seen your talking points before, and they don’t align with what I’ve actually seen any more than the opposite.

    In this particular case, unwarranted violence on both sides is being called out and people are labelling Hamas as a terrorist organization AND the Netenyahu government as genocidal and not representing the wishes of Jewish people in general.

    Palestinians and Jews are both being portrayed as the victims here, while Hamas and Israel are being called out for war crimes and unconscionable violence.

      That’s good, it means you haven’t been pulled into the hyper-partisan rhetoric that has sought to make it a wedge issue. You’re right of course. It is not a black and white issue and we should be very cautious about those who portray it as such.

      Like the comment I was replying to above.

        Aparthied isn’t “hyper partisan rhetoric” when Palestinians are treated as if their lives are worth less than israeli lives, its an accurate description of what is.going on in Israel. Human beings being forced into open air prisons and detained and toutured for the crime of being born to the “wrong” race. I don’t have the time or patience to refute your bullshit talking points. It is you who is under the influence of hyper partisan rhetoric also the delusion that your opinion is worth a damn while Israel starves and bombs powerless civilians and tourtures people they point thier finger at and say “Hamas”
