    Palestinians have entire documents and conferences on what to do with non-useful Jews. As for the useful ones, they will not be allowed to flee Palestine. Doctors and such will be prevented from emigrating.

    There are no angels in this conflict. Both sides have desires for a genocide.

      Certainly there are factions within Palestine that are genocidal. They’re not in charge of anything, though, and don’t represent the mainstream.

      Meanwhile, the Israeli genicidiers control the government and are a mainstream cultural force.

      They are not the same.

          Hamas isn’t lead by the people it was lead by even a decade ago. Their more recent 2017 charter is pretty explicitly not genocidal, they are anti-Israeli and explicitly not anti-Jewish.

            Said conference was held in 2021. But I guess maybe a couple of years is enough time to reform a genocidal group.

            Maybe Hamas leadership changed their tune towards murdering regular Jewish people sometime after that?

            Certainly an analysis of their actions since that time will show their more peaceable trajectory…

            That only the Israeli govt is capable of carrying out their genocide tendencies doesn’t mean Hamas doesn’t have genocidal tendencies.

              I never claimed they’re peaceful. They want to kill settlers and IDF goons and they want to destroy the Israeli occupation. Hardly peaceful.

              But that’s not genocide. That’s just people’s war.
