    Hamas goal is to kill all jews. Israels goal is to kill all Hamas fighters. That doesn’t add up with your claim.

      It is certainly convenient to frame this conflict purely in terms of racial hatred. In that case you may want to take a look at all the racist and exterminationist rhetoric that comes from Israeli politicians and settlers. Israel’s ultimate goal is annexation of all Palestinian territories.

        That is how Hamas frames it. I wouldn’t consider it convenient from Israel’s pov.

          It’s very convenient for Israel to pretend that Hamas has no reason other than racism to hate Israel.

            Hamas executed Palestinians in the past for being gay, not paying bribes or being part of another political party.

              Israel slaughters thousands just for being Palestinian.

                  So disproportionate numbers of civilian casualties are acceptable in war? In that case, what has Hamas done wrong? Israel continually commits crimes against humanity towards Palestinians, so Israelis die.

                    Can’t diffrentiate between human shields (a war crime commited by Hamas) and going into a baby’s room and setting him/her on fire? If so you are behind hope
