    Okay Genocide justifier.

    You do realize this logic is the same as if someone from a different household punches you, it gives you the moral right to shoot someone else from that same household in the head, right?

    Finally, this blind allegiance to a morally wrong actor is going to make the rest of the world treat Israelis as the world treated Apartheid South Africans. I hope you enjoy being ostracized.

      To add to this, Hamas has agreed to release the hostages several times. However Israel won’t agree to a ceasefire, and so the hostages haven’t been released.

      Israel doesn’t want the hostages released, because then they can’t use the hostages as justification for their genocide.

      false equivalence

      [ fawls i-kwiv-uh-luhns ] Phonetic (Standard) IPA noun

      a logical fallacy in which one assumes or asserts that two things are the same or equal when, while alike in some ways, they are not sufficiently similar to be considered equivalent.

        Claiming something is a false equivalence doesn’t make it so. You want to make a claim like that, you have to justify it.

        But I know you won’t, because you’re happy with the charred corpses of babies.
