Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

Hamas is a a fascist regime. As long as they remain in power, peace is not possible. Can't negotiate with them because they're fascist. Negotiating with fascists has been tried in the past, it didn't go well.

As a fascist state, Gaza should be placed under sanctions similar to the ones we've placed on Russia. Except we don't have to because Israel and Egypt are blockading Gaza. Which is exactly what they should be doing.

Palestinians put fascists into power, it's their responsibility to remove them from power. Until that happens, Gaza should be treated similarly to any fascist state that fires rockets at a neighbouring democracy.

Whatever criticism is made of Israel (there are many) should be made within the context of there being a fascist state on their border that routinely targets their civilians and calls for ethnic cleansing. Trying to pretend that this isn't the most important aspect of the whole Israel and Palestine situation is just dishonesty and propaganda.

If you don't want Hamas to exist then Israelis need to leave the country that doesn't belong to them.

Right, so you're for ethnic cleansing then? That is removing people from a territory under threat of violence based solely on their ethnicity. That's what you think is a solution?

So yeah, I'm not going to be agreeing with what you have to say.

Stealing Palestinian lands that the people didn't agree to give up is literally genocide
