Genocide? This is in fact what genocide looks like:

316. Actually, the post you originally responded to was directed to someone else.

I didn't check closely enough and assumed I was replying to that person. Didn't realize until later that it was someone else. Any incongruity in my reply was due to that.

I apologize for not double-checking the user name on your post. If I had, I would have replied differently. But then, if you had noticed who I thought I was replying to, perhaps you might have commented differently as well.

I honestly don't remember ever exchanging any comments with you before this (about Gaza or anything else), much less anything specific that you might have said. This whole thing was basically a comedy of errors, and I apologize for my part in perpetuating that. I am also sorry that comments intended for someone else hit the wrong target by mistake.

I still stand by what I said about the air of moral superiority that radiates from the posts of many who are opposed to Israel's actions in Gaza. I am not happy about some of those of those actions myself, but I don't feel I know enough about the realities surrounding Hamas' operations in Gaza to categorically condemn every single action Israel has taken there, and I absolutely reject the notion that this makes me a genocidal monster. If some people want to regard me that way, I can't do anything about that, but I do get tired of it from time to time!
