    What’s especially sad is every day they’re in this condition, that’s another day where they fall behind because they can’t educate their children.

    This is what genocide looks like. Zionists are the new Nazis.

      I think about this all the time. I think about how unhappy it makes me to see a day wasted. If my kid spends a day in front of the TV I worry that he’s missing out on something. And that assumes we have TV. I think about a few hours in an airport, and how erratic and miserable it makes my kid and the adults, and being stuck in this state while also constantly running from hellfire raining down, never getting clean, never getting a good meal, never getting a good night’s rest… Hell does not seem sufficient to describe it.

      Btw, I think the comparison between Zionism and Nazism is unhelpful. It’s not unjustified, but the comparison obscures more than it reveals, imo. I think saying that Israel and the US are committing naked genocide captures the situation pretty effectively, and produces much more effective discussions online. As soon as the Nazi comparison comes up, I think it gives people who are uncertain what to believe an excuse to dismiss the criticisms against the Israeli government, and defenders of the genocide an easy way to divert the conversation away from Israel’s recent and not so recent war crimes.

        No one is supporting Hamas . Israel is using the attack that happ in Oct as an excuse to kill thousands of civilians. They are killing 90% civilians and last numbers I saw had over 10000 dead children. Are they all those kids terrorist ?

        “This isn’t what genocide looks like” said No1 who seems to be experts in international laws while blaming children for being born in the wrong place at the wrong time.

        Specifically, what it looks like when you start a war with a country more powerful than you.

        This is where you lose me. What percentage of Gaza’s population “started” the war?

        I partially agree with you. Palestinians are stupid because they think repeated attacks will change anything. Israelis are stupid because they believe their brutal responses will end terrorism.

        And both have been doing this BS for 75 years.
