Been following along on this thread. Lots of really good information here.
I think it’s safe to say that most would agree that this is not a Palestine vs Jews conflict , but rather an Israel vs Humas conflict.
I also think Hamas needs to be eliminated. I don’t blame Israel for coming into Gaza to try and eliminate Hamas. The many buildings that are being destroyed and will be destroyed is happening because Hamas hides their weapons in these buildings, amongst the civilians. The civilian casualties on Israel are a tragedy, the civilian casualties in Palestine are equally tragic. Unfortunately we will see many more casualties in Palestine, and I agree with some posters here saying those casualties are mostly because of how Hamas uses civilians as human shields.
I don’t think we can blame Israel for trying to eliminate Hamas, but certainly their methods can be critiqued. And, like everyone here, I am hopeful they can minimize civilian casualties while trying to eliminate Hamas.
Politically, I am conservative, but I do agree with Justin Trudeau’s statements that Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas. (Although agreeing with JT feels strange. Lol).
