Some extraordinary mental gymnastics to justify genocide. maybe theres something we dont know that justifies it, so its justified
I'm not saying genocide is justified. I'm saying there is a lot we don't know about the situation. We don't have the intel, we don't know what was said in private conversations between Biden and Netanyahu. Consider the fact that Hamas was using a hospital to store weapons. That means the hospital loses its protected status and bombing it isn't a war crime according to the Geneva conventions. There is also inevitably a lot of propaganda. Maybe you are correct and Biden fully supports the genocide. I highly doubt that. It doesn't negate my point that there is a lot about the situation that we don't really know. Hamas sucks. Israel sucks. It's a dumpster fire.
If you dont know, you dont know. Israel and Biden could be even more of a monster than we know publicly. You're still trying to use ignorance as a license for genocide
