Punitive reprisals to... The open declaration of war Hamas made today?
Who in their right mind expects a country to supply power to the country that literally just attacked them?
the primary reason Hamas has political power and the political support to attack Israel in this manner is because Israel:
you can and should condemn Hamas, but it is inarguable that Israel routinely does worse—overwhelmingly to people just as innocent as the ones Hamas is murdering—which is what makes attacks like this inevitable. you cannot do what Israel does and not expect the outcome to be violence, and it is incumbent on Israel, who holds all the actual power in this dynamic, to break the cycle and stop using every terrorist attack perpetuated against it as an excuse to roll innocent heads.
Criticism of the actions of Israel's government does not make one an antisemite.
So glad to see this sentiment supported on beehaw. It's a shame that people equate the two.
