Nobody serious is proposing that. Israel has some crazy right wingers but there’s no chance they do that. Unlike Hamas who, if given the opportunity, would eagerly do that to Israelis.

So how is that a genocide then?

What is the other option here other than Israel surrendering to Hamas?

You still didn’t answer my question. What is the other option here for Israel? Hamas backed them into a corner by launching missles from hospitals, schools, mosques, etc.

Hamas wants Palestinians to be killed more than anyone else in this situation. They’re basically daring Israel to attack civilian areas. They are trying to elicit a reaction exactly like the one you are exhibiting. Meanwhile Iran is laughing as they use Palestinians as cannon fodder in order to get people pissed at Israel and the west.

What other option is there for Israel other than just surrendering to Hamas?

You clearly don’t want to be gentle. What is the solution here? If Israel doesn’t defend itself than its residents will continue to be the subject of attacks by Hamas. What other option is there?

What country do you live in that would tolerate constant rocket attacks as well as now terrorist raids from their neighboring territory?

If Al qaeda was based in Canada and they attacked the U.S. should the U.S. continue providing water and electricity to them? What other country bites the hand that feeds and then expects the status quo to remain. Think about that for a minute.

Why didn’t Hamas, instead of building rockets, build a new power plant and water treatment facilities with the millions of not billions of aid that the international community has given in aid to Gaza?

No I don’t mean that story which is of questionable veracity. However are you denying Hamas targeted and killed and abducted children eight days ago? Because they have said so themselves.

What you are calling for is a fantasy. The second Israelis did that they would be wiped out.

I live in reality - and we all need to - if we want this situation to finally come to a peaceful conclusion.

By the way I agree with you regarding the settlements. They are a provocation and moderate Israelis need to stop them and hopefully will once Netanyahu and his rightwing cronies are thrown out of office.

“Throw bombs”

More like launch missles into civilian areas intentionally. You’re really understating the situation.

Also by the way your solution is to just let Hamas continue intentionally attacking civilian targets? What country on the planet would allow their neighbor to do that?
