    I’m not sure the Palestinians will view being ethnically cleansed slightly less vigorously as a brighter future.

      Palestinians have never been ethnically cleansed. There are also peaceful Palestinians that don’t want, and do want a brighter future.

      Who said anything about doing it slightly less? I haven’t heard that from the Israelis.

      Gaza Strip wasn’t a very joyful time even before the war. It was ruled by extremist religious terrorists that would literally torture, rape and kill you for whatever reason (like being gay).

      People somehow conveniently ignore this.

        Indeed, one of them is the Islamic Jihad. I hope the Palestinians will have a positive government.

        You conviently ignore that Gaza has been under Israeli occupation and siege since well before Hamas rose to power.

      He was the mastermind behind the Oct. 7th attack. The world is a better place without him.

        Nobody’s arguing that. His death being good and the continued eradication of the Palestinian people by the IDF and Israeli state can coexist.

        To be perfectly clear, since this is the internet and people can’t seem to have two concepts in their minds at once: The genocide of the Palestinian people needs to stop.

          There is no genocide, there is no official source for that. War is bad, but this is not a genocide.

      I am probably out of the loop but how does one go about Identifying a Palestinian without shooting everyone?

        Point your Tavor at them. If they run, they’re Hamas. If they don’t, they’re well-disciplined Hamas.

          Well I guess I am a Palestinian because if someone pointed a gun at me I would run.

        I think IDF also uses option B - explosives. Also very effective, since the only ones who get harmed by IDF weapons are Hamas, so everyone killed/harmed in the blast zone can safely be declared Hamas.
