All those words to avoid answering a simple question. I'll restate it so you can try again:

Since you consider this genocide, what war plan would you have enacted to ensure Israel destroyed Hamas without injuring non-combatants in Gaza and therefore avoid the "genocide" you claim is happening?

It should be easy for you to answer, so go ahead.

Thanks for calling out the word "genocide", used so freely here.

You're very welcome, Kathy. If Israel wanted to commit genocide, all 2.2 million Gazans would have been turned into charcoal six months ago with thermobaric weapons and scraped into the Med. That 98 percent of the Gaza population remains alive is proof Israel is NOT committing genocide, and anyone suggesting otherwise is a fool or a Hamas tool.

Or do you believe Israelis should have just shut up and accepted the mass murders?

You're missing once again the point, my friend, the question is "Will exterminating the entire Palestinians nation - as a large part of the Israeli government seems to suggest - will rid Israel of Hamas?" So far there are all indications that Hamas support has worldwide grown exponentially in the last few months, hence why it is quite clearly impossible for the IDF to successfully eliminate them. All that will happen in the long run is that the Israel will be regarded even more as a pariah as it already is.

But luckily that's not my problem - and that's enough of this b.s. now.

I see you dodged the question for the third time: How should Israel destroy Hamas without harming noncombatants in Gaza? Your refusal to answer means you have no alternative, making your "genocide" claim worthless.

Anyone who supports Hamas is a terrorist, which says a lot about you.
