    Hamas is the aggressor in this specific part of the almost 100 year old conflict, that resulted in the current circumstances.

    What genocide are you referring to?

      None in particular, I’m saying there is no excuse for genocide. So to determine if Israel is committing one, the actions of Hamas are irrelevant.

      Well, if you cut it like that, you could cut it a month later. Now Israel is the aggressor!

      It’s not that simple.

      By that logic the specific part of the current genocide in Gaza Israel is the unambiguous aggressor.

      Like: You cannot just ignore what came before. WTF?

      “Conflict” makes it sound like a dispute. Let’s call it what REALLT is: apartheid, occupation, and ethnic cleansing.
