It's more complex than simply stating warcrimes are happening. One side is codifying genocide as their main goal https://embassies.gov.il/holysee/AboutIsrael/the-middle-east/Pages/The%20Hamas-Covenant.aspx and killed over 1000 people on Oct 7.
I understand why israel would want to completely destroy an entity like that. The problem is, as you say, israel is completely disregarding citizen casualties.
Yet, the rhetoric of the above is; democrats are bad. And hamas is to be supported. Why did the leap go to that as the conclusion? I promise you, Trump doesn't care about the brown people in the middle east.
Why do so many of you think this whole thing started on October 7th?
Palestine finally entered mainstream media. 100 years into this "settler effort."
Did i say that? Did I say hamas and israel didn't exist until October 7? Did israel respond to October 7? Is October 7 relevant to anything concerning this discourse? Hmmm
lol “one side has coded genocide jnto their main goals on October 7th” as if Israel and many of its politicians haven’t been stating out in the open that this is their goal for the last two decades, but go off with your brain rot nonsense.
