    It’s wasn’t the ethnic cleansing of Jews that was bad, it was the ethnic cleansing of Jews that was bad.

    The more Israelis who wake up to this, the better.

      This number is and has always been a rounding error. Better not count on it.

      It’s a complete shitshow down there. Because he’s actually kind of right. It’s a Stalin calling Hitler a monster kind of situation. Not like Hamas wouldn’t genocide the shit out of Israelians if they had the means.

      Still doesn’t mean tha Netanjahu isn’t just as much of a monster.

        Hamas wouldn’t exist if they had the means; they’re a resistance organization.

        Well, yeah, because they’ve been radicalized by having their families brutally killed in front of them. Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.

          That’s so far from every bit of truth, it’s pathetic! Israel has been under attack by its neighbours since its very founding. In fact there hasn’t been any significant period of peace in the middle east for at least a thousand years.

          Again, I’m not going to excuse Israel gere, but displaying Hamas as the victim standing up to it’s bully is dishonest and completely removes any kind of credibility you may have had.

            Modern Israel was founded by invading colonists so of course it’s being attacked by the people they’re invading.

              Yeah, that’s what I thought. I’ve yet to see a person defending Palestine who isn’t also a terrorist supporter. Here in Germany pro Palestine demonstrations are the ones with the most attacks on journalists trumping even neonazi demonstrations. You guys are even worse than the Nazis and that says something!

            Too many falsehoods and lies to warrant a response. But it is worth mentioning that Hamas accepts the 1967 borders and a 2-state solution while Likud doesn’t. Arab countries have been trying to make peace with Israel based on the same premise but Israel -Likud and right wing parties particularly- reject any Palestinian statehood.

            Your comment is hypocritical coming from the continent that gave us colonialism, ethnic cleansing and two world wars. Our region has attracted invaders throughout history from the Greeks and Romans of antiquity to the Mongols and Crusaders of the medieval era to modern European and US colonialism and imperialism due to its location, and nothing inherently wrong with us.
