Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally – across more than 20 countries – over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.

    You say “answer the question”, as in the ‘Palestinian Question’? Just admit you are advocating for a genocide, a wholesale slaughter of a people based on their nation.

        I mean support for Israel sounds like genocide apologia, and the ‘jewish question’ was a term used during the holocaust, so it wasn’t much of a stretch.

            If a group used terrorism in their fight against the Nazis during WW2, I would shun terrorism but I would be a supporter of that group.

                Can you think of a more obvious evil group than Nazis? I wasn’t trying to say Israelis were like Nazis or anything, just that it was an obvious moral position. The position being, where there is something so abhorrent, violent and calculated for years causing untold horror, a group that is justified in their struggle may use methods you don’t agree with in the desperate fight against that horror.
