It's not delusions, it's called acknowledging facts. Fact:the last election was decades ago. Fact: Most of the population is under 18. Fact: Most of the population didn't participate in that election. Fact: Hamas at the time was more moderate, or appeared to be, supported a two state solution and other more moderate policies. Fact: Most of the population didn't support Hamas until Israel started doing a genocide. These are all facts. The irony of warning of a slippery slope when you're ignoring all of these to defend an oppressive, genocidal, apartheid regime that's killing tens of thousands more civilians, including children, than Palestine is palpable. You're so stuck in your propaganda bubble you don't even realize it.

Everyone knows the solution. Stop oppressing and blockading the Palestinians. Adopt a one state or two solution, give them autonomy, the ability to control their own land, power, sky, sea, trash, water, imports, etc. Either with their own state, or combine all the land into one, give equal protections to all people in a strong constitution, give representation to everyone, setup reconciliation panels to help the nation move past the crimes done and establish a new start, make treaties, etc. It was done in the UK with the Irish and South Africa. Israel thinks their situation is so special and unique, but it's not. It's the same settler colonial situation as all the others, except with Jewish people, so because they went through the holocaust, I guess they get a pass on genocide.

And genocide is what it is, or they're dumb. Otherwise, what's the plan? They're just making more Hamas recruits by making all these orphans. You think they'll like Israel after 30,000 dead? They're either stupid or just plan on killing or displacing all the orphans, too, which is genocide. That's what I'm saying.

Even before now, it looks like the same process, what they've been doing for decades. It's the same as the natives in the US, which everyone would call a genocide, too, btw. It's the same playbook. First, lots of colonialism and taking of land. Next, say they're savage when they retaliate. Then, killing while moving them over bit by bit into smaller and farther pieces of land. Retaliate with huge violence when they try to fight back to kill off tons more and take more land. And their situation gets more desperate and they fight back more, retaliate harder, and repeat. It's like the Nazis saying that it's the only solution after the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising because they too dangerous to govern. No shit, stop oppressing them.
