The best response to what about oct 7

Jews were commonly used as scapegoats for tragedies and disasters such as in the Black Death Persecutions, the 1066 Granada Massacre, the Massacre of 1391 in Spain, the many Pogroms in the Russian Empire, and the tenets of Nazism prior to and during World War II, which led to The Holocaust and the murder of six million Jews.

It is the Jews that are being persecuted, not Palestinians.

Hamas are Palestinians.

What is Hamas relations with Palestine?

Under the ideological principles of Islamism, Hamas promotes Palestinian nationalism in an Islamic context; it has pursued a policy of jihad (armed struggle) against Israel.

Under the ideological principles of Islamism, Hamas promotes Palestinian nationalism It has a social service wing, Dawah, and a military wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades.[f][[g]]

(Hamas - Wikipedia) Since the mid-1990s,[58] Hamas has gained widespread popularity within Palestinian society for its anti-Israeli stance.[88][89] Hamas has attacked civilians in Israel, including with suicide bombings and indiscriminate rocket attacks – acts that have led several countries, as well as the European Union, to designate Hamas a terrorist organization.[[90]]

I know the terroristic tactics are wrong. But you never address why Hamas, as a representative of some Palestinians, have a problem with Israel. In fact, you ignore the history of the last few centuries and throw them into some bucket with all people throughout history who ever hated Jews.

It’s in your definition, what is Hamas struggling against? I can’t believe you are that blind to say that they simply hate Jews, for no reason.

No the terrorist designation was not instituted by me. I’m sure the people who did had good reason, no?

Among the G20, nine countries (Argentina, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and Turkey) have recognized Palestine as a state (Indonesia and Saudi Arabia only recognize Palestine) while ten countries (Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and the United States) have not.[note 1]

Although these countries generally support some form of two-state solution to the conflict, they take the position that their recognition of a Palestinian state is conditioned to direct negotiations between Israel and the PNA.

I don’t know of any country that accuses Israel of terrorism.

There is a lot you don’t know. That’s what I’m saying.

I have said over and over again that Hamas has committed terrorist acts. I have never said they didn’t. What you can’t comprehend is that Israel also commits terrorist acts. So each side feels endlessly justified in doing their terrorism.

So, what do you suggest Israel does ? Should they be the first to lay down their weapons? Do you know what would happen next?

And I don’t think Israel is going anywhere, ever again. This is an existential struggle!

Well. You are finally asking the right question. But I want to clarify. Are you agreeing with the UN, that Israel has broken international law? Are you agreeing with some governments and people like Noam Chomsky that Israel commits acts that could be called terrorism?

I’m not asking about Hamas. We’ve covered that.

In response to what? Terrorism? After the borders were established, who broke the boundaries first?

W4u thinking that the jews were terrorists in building tunnels and revolting against the nazis occupation

I can see you are never going to be reasonable about this

W4U is not thinking jews were terrorists. Careful Zedenko, lies are not tolerated.

I am being very reasonable . Who broke the peace first, Israel or its neighbors?

The Arab-Israeli War of 1948

The Arab-Israeli War of 1948 broke out when five Arab nations invaded territory in the former Palestinian mandate immediately following the announcement of the independence of the state of Israel on May 14, 1948. In 1947, and again on May 14, 1948, the United States had offered de facto recognition of the Israeli Provisional Government, but during the war, the United States maintained an arms embargo against all belligerents.

Israel has been in an existential struggle since its inception.

Hamas made the tunnels underground.

Asking who broke the peace first is the opposite of reasonable. There never was peace. You are claiming that the solution offered by Britain was peaceful. Under your definition of peace, all those other nations were supposed to accept a solution that they didn’t agree to. That’s not peace, that’s occupation by power.

Jews built tunnels under nazi concentration camps.

Hamas built tunnels underground in Gaza in recent years. Didn’t you read what I posted above about the Hamas tunnels? Or do you have your mind set that Israel is wrong and no one else is wrong? Hamas started this on October 7, but Israel is retaliating all wrong. If you read the article below, it also states that Israel also have orphan children from this war too. Gaza and Israel is full of orphans now and Hamas started it.

Occupation of ancestral lands? Where in the world would Israelis have more right to land than what is now known as Palestine.

Does Israel have a choice in the matter? What solution would you suggest?

Yes underneath the Gas chambers that killed 6 million jews.

The Nazis killed millions of people in gas vans or in stationary gas chambers. The victims were people with disabilities and later Jews and other prisoners. The vast majority of those killed by gassing were Jews.

You’re trolling, Second warning.

Irony. So wouldn’t Palestinians have as much right?

Israel listens to the UN. Elections. Treat the Hamas problem as a police action, find the criminals and punish them. More openess about IDF actions. For starters.
