They might not be, but they certainly can’t stop him or any future incarnations.
Unfortunately that sentiment is not unique to Hamas.
According to polling, the majority of Palestinians want to:
So that justifies genocide? Because just over half have been terrorized enough to not be willing to forgive?
Well, advocating for actual explicit genocide and oppression certainly makes one’s cause seem less noble. I was pointing out that Hamas aren’t the only ones who want Palestine, “from the river to the sea.” It’s a popular Palestinian sentiment. Perhaps that’s related to why calls for cease fire are going to voice mail.
One can make a case that Israel is also performing a genocide, but they themselves deny that it is. I think it’s more accurate to say that Israel is under attack by and defending itself from a belligerent monoethnic nation. It’s a big stretch to claim that this makes defense against it genocide. If wiping out Arabs were their motivation and not pacifying a belligerent nation they would be behaving very differently. 20% of Israeli citizens are Arab with full rights, after all.
Actually some member of government are starting to admit that it is a genocide. Wonder what your next excuse will be?
