Hamas' brutality is unpardonable

142. First

First that 22000 is a number from Hamas that only a handful of Hamas lovers here believe is credible.

Second, here is the best way I can differentiate the two sides'

It's not about a number of dead that is enough retribution for Oct 7th. Israel wants Hamas gone. That is the necessary goal to keep it's people safe. If Israel had a way to kill only the members of Hamas without harming a single Palestinian they would do it. Unfortunately no such way exists primarily because Hamas uses civilians as a human shield for which you never condemn them for some reason.

On the other hand if Hamas were offered a choice between killing only Israel's military or killing every Jew on earth. They would choose to kill every Jew on earth without hesitation and then party in the streets for a month in a constant state of ecstatic glee.

And that is who you are defending. Yeah, I said "defending". You never start a thread to condemn Hamas. You never spontaneously attack them in a thread. Only when your feet are held to the fire do you offer up a "Well yeah Hamas is kind of bad too". Otherwise it's all Israel bashing.

Make no mistake this bothsiderism and focusing only on actions by Israel is spewing exactly what Hamas would have it's paid internet agents spew. Not saying you are one but they would sure approve your actions.
