You don't see a path to peace because you believe most Gazan's want to kill all Israelis.
A claim, I might add, that you state as fact and then post links to the supposed source that doesn't say anything like that at all.
You're either so incredibly biased you don't see your own bias while congratulating yourself on how open minded you are, or you're intentionally trying to lie in a subtle manner to try and sway others.
Given the maliciousness of posting a fake source to claim a non-existent genocidal desire OF A POPULATION CURRENTLY BEING GENOCIDED, I'm guessing the later.
You're right. Maybe 72% of Palestinians are misunderstood. Maybe they only wanted to drag specific Israelis out of their safehouses in the only neighborhoods they could reach and beat and murder and kidnap those people, but not the rest. They really were going to stop right when the IDF happened to show up. What a coincidence.
A besieged populations support of a military operation that had a lower percentage of civilian deaths by at least two, possibly three, orders of magnitude compared to Israels actions over the last 7 months is a far cry from asking people if they support the slaughter of every Israeli, and you know it.
By that same level of evidence and logic, a higher percentage of Israelis want the entire slaughter of the Gazan population.
I will also point out that there is a secondary form of justice for Palestinian people in the west bank and East Jerusalem then there are for the settlers. Palestinian children frequently get arrested (read kidnapped) and sentenced by a military tribunal with no evidence. Whereas the settlers use the IDF as armed guards while they try to ethnically cleanse villages from the west bank, and if they do get arrested they have a jury trial with standards of evidence. To me, those 15,000 Palestinian prisoners are not prisoners, but hostages.
Prisoner vs hostage
Arrest vs kidnap
Support for a military action vs desire for genocide
It's all in the words you use, isn't it?
Thanks for revealing yourself as a subtle genocide defender. I really was curious which one you were.
I'm glad you were able to make the situation so black and white.
It really is.
Any country that intentionally withholds food, medicine, and potable water from a population it considers undesirable is a government intentionally committing genocide.
Is genocide ever justified is a yes or no question. Only one answer makes you a monster
You lied about the results of a survey to imply something the survey didn't ask in order to slander a population being genocided.
Furthermore, you defended that lie with a self-righteous tirade rather than acknowledging your lie.
It's rather beside the point but there are multiple surveys of the Gazan population that asks the questions you lied about and came out with a much different conclusion.
