They said they’re willing to, but only in exchange for a permanent ceasefire and the release of Palestinian prisoners

Ok but the weapons are still flowing. It’s all theater until that changes.
He literally moved the us embassy to Jerusalem. He’s definitely not pro hamas
So instead of voting for a 3rd party that’s actually anti-zionist, ur gonna vote for one of the only people who could make the situation worse than genocide Joe?
Under the ottomans wasn’t the region relatively peaceful?
I mean ideally you could work towards a single secular state, that way you don’t have Hamas in power and Israel doesn’t get to commit genocide.
Unfortunately the power here is held by Israel, and there’s a 0 percent chance they would willingly give up their ethnostate and live in peace with Palestinians unless they were forced to.
I’ve successfully boycotted Israel (I’m broke and I’m not buying anything)
“hamas is using human shields and you defend them…”
But Ukraine can do it and (correctly) you still defend and support them.
Hamas was originally elected because they ran as the anti corruption party, and because the PA are collaborationists. If you want to get Palestinians to broadly support someone other than Hamas, you have to show that the other guys can get results. Otherwise people continue to join hamas, because that’s their only mechanism of resistance.
Just curious, what are your opinions on Ukraine and Russia? Do you defend Ukraine even tho they did the same things?
Send in soldiers to go kill Hamas guys without leveling an entire apartment building?
Or undermine Hamas politically by not making the PA seem like Israeli cucks.
The over a thousand people held without charges would disagree with you. Are trusted human rights organizations fake news now?
I mean if anti settler violence is terrorism then yea I wholeheartedly support terrorism. Settlers should not be there.
Also idc who does it. If someone is held without charges in prison, they’ve been taken hostage by the state.

They’re Palestinian women and children, not terrorists. It’s a trade of innocents for innocents
God I hope they track down Monday and kill that terrorist son of a bitch.
If Hamas was freedom fighters, then your exact same defense applies to the Israeli military, and it’s a neverending cycle of “justified” violence.
Yeah. That’s true. There will be continued death and destruction until Israel tries for peace by undermining Hamas politically, not violently. Or until Israel ethnically cleanses the vast majority of Palestinians, which it seems like they’re trying to do.
Hamas is a resistance group, even if their tactics are awful. Their goal isn’t to provoke the most awful Israeli responses possible, but to retaliate for the violence that the IDF does. This has been the case for a while, and October 7th is really the main exception because I doubt Hamas predicted how far they’d get. Even with the Oct 7 attack, Hamas literally tried to trade their hostages for women and children in Israeli prisons. They tried to use their hostages as leverage to get Israel to stop bombing civilians as much. They have to care about Palestinians to some extent, because if enough citizens of Gaza decide the PA is a lot better, Hamas won’t exist anymore, or at least lose power.
Because they are a terrorist group.
You say this like it means anything. The ANC (fought apartheid south africa) was also a terrorist group. So was the FLN (fought french in the Algerian revolution), the Viet Minh (first Indochina war, against the french), and many other resistance groups.
Currently, Israel is killing civilians and children at a higher rate than Yemen. And yemens population is 16 times that of gaza.
No it doesn’t make fuckin sense unless you don’t understand why hamas exists. Let’s assume that Palestinians aren’t people, and it’s morally acceptable to kill dozens of them to get one or two Hamas guys. Now, you have a ton of family members of those dead people who are extremely angry at Israel for killing their family and friends. Do you think those people just sit down and die quietly? No, quite a few of them join a terrorist organization to fight back. So now, by bombing that hospital, you’ve created more terrorists than you’ve killed.
How do I contact the IDF I have an airstrike target for them
