    You mean the Israeli government and Hamas, right? Or were you implying that Bibi is all of Israel, but Hamas is not the Palestinians with a straight face? I hope Bibi and his henchmen are tried and convicted at the ICC just like Hamas and it’s henchmen as well!

    Edit to clarify: Bibi is NOT Isreal. Hamas is NOT the Palestinians.

      Israel=The Israeli govt. in basically every conversation within this context. Trying to say “but both right?!” When that’s what everyone has been saying from the start, makes you look like you’re acting in bad faith.

        I’m only answering b/c I can’t tell if you’re serious, but on the off chance you are and care then it’s worth the effort.

        NO Israel doesn’t automatically equate to their government in these conversations all over Lemmy. If you are assuming it does, and butting heads with people (or agreeing with people), it could be one of the causes of misunderstanding or disagreement. I’m not being sarcastic, not trying to pick a fight. Just letting you know that assumption could cause great issue when you’re being reasonable and talking to someone else reasonable.

        Bad actors have a hard-on for generalizing and using it as a weapon, ESPECIALLY Hamas=Palestinians, and Israel=Jews=All Israelis. And it does nothing but disservice to anybody attempting to legitimately discuss and communicate.

        I’ll ignore your implication.

          That you’re an Israeli shill? I was trying to be nice about it, guess not. See how I use Israeli to refer to people? Since it’s Israeli citizens who lose because of an extremist Israel? Hamas are terrorists, Israel is an apartheid state. The citizens both groups have control over are suffering and your trying to conflate denouncing Israel and antisemitism. Stop.
