    Both hamas and israel are commiting big no nos against each other. It’s very hard to even pick a side at this point because both have valid arguments and none are innocent.

      Strawman bullshit. This post is not about siding with Hamas, no one in their sane mind does that. Palestinians do not equal Hamas, the same way that Israelis do not equal Jews or vice versa.

      Don’t both sides this. Israel has slaughtered 5000 kids and killed more civilians in a month than Putin did in Ukraine in over two years. It is deliberately targeting hospitals schools and ambulances and failing to distinguish civilians from combatants. Israeli politicians have repeatedly used dehumanizing language and called for ethnic cleansing. They have told proven lies about human shields while publicly bragging about how they are destroying Gaza.

        These are bullshit statistics until they are verified by independent sources.

        Fuck em both.

        Neither of them are being honest about the situation and both are committing war crimes. I’m not about to side with terrorists, least of all any group even remotely associated with the muslim brotherhood. And both deserve heavy criticizing given the state both have placed the international community into

      I think it’s pretty easy. Hamas is a religious/fascistic terrorist organization, and Israel is a modern western country with an organized military. I concede that neither are perfect (who is?), but Hamas is so much worse that the choice should be trivial for anyone who prefers secularist freedom.
