    Given that their stated goal is the destruction of Israel, yes.

    Both sides are trying to genocide the other, Israel is just doing it at scale.

    Don’t defend terrorists of either side

      Is that their current stance? I don’t want to be the one pulling out the Hamas charter but here we go: https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/hamas-2017-document-full

      • Do they call for the destruction of the Israeli people now living in Israel? No.
      • Do they call for pulling recognition from an illegitimate apartheid and colonial state founded on robbing Palestinians of their lands, lives, and future? Sure. And I agree.

      As bad as Hamas are (and yes, they committed war crimes, plain and simple), they still are resisting an oppressor who butchers them at every corner and at every chance (which is legal under international law). I don’t think it’s possible to make a convincing argument on genocide by Hamas.

      Don’t defend terrorists of either side

      Don’t equate either sides, and don’t suggest that this is Israel vs Hamas when it’s clearly Israel vs every Palestinian dead or alive, in the West Bank or in Gaza, online or offline.

      again, not defending any terrorists, but thanks I guess since that isn’t bad advice 🤷‍♂️
