    The Israeli mission to the U.N. in Geneva called the comments “deplorable and deeply concerning” and blamed Hamas for civilian deaths.

    (Insert “why would they do this” meme here.)

    Hamas is evil, yes, but that doesn’t prevent the Israeli government from also being evil.

        Supporting terrorism by…condemning Hamas and Israel?

        Are you drunk? Where did I support anything except not killing civilians?

          A common thing that seems to be going around lately is people claiming that any condemnation of Israel is support for Hamas

          Edit: Funnily enough though I see way less of the opposite. It’s almost as if those people are poisoning the well for discussion on the matter.

          I also see people saying that condemning Israel’s actions is antisemitism but I’ve been seeing less and less of that lately
