I am neither of the things you accuse me of. If you look at previous posts of mine about this horrible situation, you will find that I called out the stupidity of Israel's leaders for the very reason you state. Wiping out Hamas is a fantasy; Israel is only fueling a new generation, meanwhile losing what moral standing in the world it still had. All that said, I disagree with the accusations of "genocide" and "ethnic cleansing." I am appalled by the civilian deaths, but if Israel was in fact attempting genocide, the civilian death toll would be much larger than 20,000. Hamas would be far less discriminating if it had comparable weaponry. I want Israel to stop what it's doing. I wish it had stopped months ago. But Hamas could stop it too. It has already won.
