The US Government can stop this genocide

90. Not to mention the military aid is a two way street, cutting them off invites our being cut off

Israel is a major producer of cutting edge military hardware. Searching Google, the US military buys quite a bit of it.

Trophy (an active protection system for tanks) is a big one and judging by tank losses in Ukraine, a critical one.

We also seem to buy a lot of missiles and communications gear from them.

Back to the subject at hand:

I don't consider this genocide, nor even close.

I blame Hamas of the Palestinian deaths.

Why?

Hamas has a very well established history of hiding their assets close to sensitive targets like schools, hospitals, and apartment buildings. They use the Palestinians as human shields to try and ward off Israeli reprisal, and to leverage civilian deaths to pressure Israel into stopping when Israel does strike.

There can be no peace in Israel and Palestine, no two state solution, as long as Hamas exists. Civilian deaths now - while tragic - must be weighed against the possible lives saved if the eradication of Hamas is successful. The Palestinian people need to stand up for themselves and actively assist in the removal of Hamas.
