President Biden attended a fundraiser in San Francisco late Wednesday where protesters showed up calling for an end to US aid for Israel and a cease-fire in its ongoing war in Gaza.
The goal of Hamas, stated many times, is to destroy Israel. Hamas actions are terrorism. Hamas goal is genocide aimed against one specific group of people. Your example of WW2 is actually a good one. It was not a genocide despite of the fact that Allies bombed essentially to zero cities like Dresden. Allies goal was to remove Nazi from power. Israel goal is to remove Hamas from power. So, what’s the difference?
The difference is Dresden was a one off war crime. We didn’t keep doing it to every urban area, we didn’t corral civilians, and we certainly didn’t deny them food aid.
Based on how dead set you are on them killing Israelis, are you sure it’s not just you wanting to kill Israelis?
You sure about all that? Hunger within German population was present, the red army (part of the Allies) was known for rapes, and Israel did not bomb to the extend Allies bombed Dresden, not even close. The civilian losses in WW2 were massive. The cities after WW2 were in ruins, and both sides (with exception of Paris) did not hesitate to bomb cities if there were military targets including military manufacturing facilities.
Yes war is ugly, but not every war is genocide, most of them are not.

Israel absolutely went to Dresden levels. They’ve even been caught doing demolition with their ground troops just to make sure.
And who the fuck is talking about Russia? Did I miss something? Is D.C. now the Kremlin?
