I do feel Israel is over retaliating. However, they aren't committed to genocide against Arabs and Palestinians. Hamas is committed to genocide of the Israelis -- to the complete eradication of the the people. And, they're using innocent civilians as shields. They even warned the people not to evacuate when Israel ordered it.

That's another thing. Israel told Gazans they were coming. Hamas invaded Israel in a brutal and horrific manner. And, Israel is allowing aid in. Does anyone think Hamas would do the same if Israel was on its back foot? Additionally, Jews are protesting the Israeli actions on behalf of Palestinians. Have you seen any Arab or Palestinians protesting against Hamas on behalf of the hostages?

Hamas photographed and videoed the horrors they perpetrated. They spread the evidence themselves, proudly. They have sworn to do again and again and again, ad nauseum. Yet, people are denying it happened.

Now Hamas wants a ceasefire. We know it's just to regroup and arm themselves again. Israel won't entertain a ceasefire until the hostages are returned. Is that unreasonable?

The news is all about the Palestinian casualties. The horrors perpetrated by Hamas are largely swept under the rug. Jewish spilled blood is just Jews. But, Palestinian blood -- that's the real crime.
