Stop justifying genocide. This is a repetitively grossly disproportionate retaliation, gaslighting to hide genocide. Period. Hasbara/IDF are fascist apologists, full stop. “Never again” applies to all or none.

No need to move the goal post; am not a fan of Bibi either. Hamas certainly played into his hands. I don't think he really cared about tripping hippies.

I was addressing what you said.

There is a tiresome campaign to try to not even mention October 7 even pretending Hamas didn't do all the killing, as if the IDF also killed many of their own citizens on the day. Now that is gaslighting.
