I will try not to get sucked in now. I don’t want to risk it becoming more hostile. I have given my opinion and think it has been mostly a good debate. I can understand why it can cause tension, and there are no easy answers. I think the charge of genocide is far too extreme for reasons given.
That said, for anyone more pro-Israeli, it must be remembered that Palestinians aren’t defined by Hamas. There has been a timidness from some quarters of the media in labeling what happened as terrorism or as a pogrom and many activists have sickeningly glorified in Hamas’s actions, including those spearheading such protests. However, stuff like this from Richard Madeley is bang out of order:
