Hamas is not a recognized state that we support. Israel is, and Israel is committing war crimes. There is never a justification for war crimes!


The protestors are literally chanting “we are Hamas”.

🚨Hearing from multiple NU students that some faculty are allowing people to miss classes to attend the Hamas solidarity rally/encampment that the university has clearly stated violates policy & is not permitted. One class has been moved TO Deering Meadow, where it’s taking place. Imagine being a Jewish student in that class & being informed that in order to attend class, you must show up at the site of a hate rally, where a student journalist has been assaulted, campus police were physically resisted & people are wearing Hamas-branded clothing. It’s sick. NU needs to crack down. Soon.


Imagine being a Muslim students and being constantly attacked by paid jewish pressure groups and thugs. Called a terrorists because of how you look. This is McCarthyism.


Qatar is funding all of these pro-terrorism protests. Let's not talk about shadowy funding!

If the colleges were not seeing this level of protesting I'd be more worried that we've all lost our humanity. This is what young adults should be doing - calling out mainstream actions that are totally unacceptable to 99% of civilization.

For those who claim Jews have this right - you are all in denial of the definition of ethical and decent behavior. Just because Jews were attacked in no way justifies 34k people getting killed. There's no possible justification for this being the right thing to do. This is why Oct 7 gets mentioned over and over - revenge is the only statement that can be used so basically pro Israelis are killing out of revenge and that is morally pathetic and unacceptable from a US ally. That is worthy of protest.


Actually the October 7 attacks do justify it.

Oh? So Hamas has returned the rest of the hostages from last October. I hadn't heard but it's good to know.

Oh? You forgot about 10/7? Oh.


OP also forgot that the party that rejects every peace deal, and in fact stages terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians whenever it looks like peace might break out, is the Palestinians.

Don't get all tingly and start mowing them down indiscriminately, IDF goon squad enthusiasts.

For the avoidance of doubt, are you arguing that the deaths in Israel on 10/7 justify the deaths in Gaza since then?

What is the right way to make sure terrorists stop attacking your people? It surely isn't giving them what they demand when their demand is your suicide. It isn't asking them nicely because they ain't nice.

It also doesn't seem to be negotiating with them because they reject offers and move goalposts.

So really, they need to be eliminated.

DP. Yeah.

I could explain with nuance but you wouldn't read it. So I'll just stick with, yeah.

Great, and that's why you and those who traveled along your path previously are deserving of whatever misfortune has come (and will continue to come) your way. No mercy is warranted.

Lemme at least guess? Your nuance is that the tens of thousands dead in Gaza are actually the fault of Hamas for using them as ham shields, failing to turn themselves in, failing to self-immolate before a poster of Emperor Netanyahu, etc.

Did I summarize your "nuance" sufficiently to reflect your view?

You need to spend some time with a therapist to begin understanding that conflict resolution doesn't have to boil down to a kill / be killed scenario at every turn in the road. Are you raising children with that broken of a moral compass?

You are justifying war crimes. There is no nuance. Do you know nothing of Nuremberg? If you support war crimes, you are just as guilty as the Nazis.

Note this is not the same as justifying war. Israel was fully justified in its decision to be in war, in fact, I think there is a solid argument that they had no choice. It was put into war by Hamas. But there is never a justification for war crimes, and what we all should have learned from the Holocaust was that when they occur, we must as an international community, all stand up against them.

It certainly isn't murdering a bunch of women and children (72% of Israel's victims) who didn't do a damn thing to you. How many lives do you require before your blood lust is satisfied?
