Here is the problem. Hamas is an idea, it is a group of terrorists - but like all terrorists they are based on ideology. You can kill terrorists but not the idea.

Netanyahu has guaranteed that a whole generation of, probably more of surviving Palestinian children will grow up as poster children for Hamas or the next terrorists replacement. Genocides will do that. You kill their siblings, their mother, their father, grandparents, aunts and uncles, that will stay with them. You do that to civilians, you make them homeless, flatten their cities, destroy their cultural cites, you are attempting to eliminate them.

Already the world is seeing this genocide and the cost of this world wide is on Israel and unfortunately the United States for supplying the weapons and asking Netanyahu to be nicer. What a fucking joke. Netanyahu has become Hamas on steroids.

It is no wonder most all of my Jewish friends want a ceasefire now! Not a pause but an end to the war. Palestinians do not have a standing army. The is being played out largely on the backs of civilians 20,000 dead at minimum. 70% women and children - the larger portion of the two Children. Whatever happens, no matter how many Hamas die, Netanyahu is only perpetrating their cause. They hate Israel.
Most Palestinian civilians have not been there, but this is making it hard for them not to. Recent polls in the U.S. show a slim majority 51% of 18 to 24 year olds say Hamas was justified in the October 7 attack. You go up one age bracket and it is 50-50. I don’t happen to share that view it was horrific. That said Netanyahu is like Hamas on steroids.
