Several high-profile incidents are being investigated as hate crimes in New York, where anti-Jewish incidents more than tripled in October compared with last year.

I suggest the same to you. The people getting armed to the teeth by the biggest military power to ever exist is not the one getting killed.

To your response, "no they are not lol":

[Jews, Like Palestinians, Are 'Indigenous' to the Middle East

](https://reason.com/2023/10/18/jews-like-palestinians-are-indigenous-to-the-middle-east/)

I don't agree with IDF's plan. But nobody's acknowledging that Israeli jews are a constant target.

sure, can we compare numbers?

who has access to electricity and water?

[–] C0unterfactual 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Okay, but do you acknowledge that Hamas has a great deal of responsibility for the lack of infrastructure for civilians in the Gaza Strip, of which they are the government? That Hamas spends literally billions of aid money toward building a vast system of tunnels from which they fire rockets at Israel, attempting to kill jews, because it's in their mission statement?

Can you see that it's a little more nuanced of than simply "Hamas good, Israel bad"?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You are the one saying hamas good, israel bad. I'm not condoning innocents from either side to die, it's not a moral judgement. I'm just arguing for the way to stop it.

Terrorism is usually peoples last choice in dealing with things. I don't think there would be an army of them if Gaza was actually free, but this genocide has been in the slow burner for decades.
