@DilianiDimitri@rotntaker Israel is not pursuing genocide. Hamas is pursuing genocide. Cleansing the Jews from what it (falsely) claims is Muslim land.
@PHenryMartin1@DilianiDimitri Jihad is repelling, doesn't imply a genocide. Hamas leaders claimed that they don't seek to kill all Jews, but only to resist the Israeli occupation and aggression.
@rotntaker@DilianiDimitri False. Taqqiya.
“In face of the Jews' usurpation of Palestine, it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised…”
“It is necessary to instill the spirit of Jihad in the heart of the nation so that they would confront the enemies and join the ranks of the fighters.”
@PHenryMartin1@DilianiDimitri It's literally referring to the government of Israel and the Zionist ideology, It didn't say "Israel will exist and will continue to exists until Islam obliterates its people and government".
@rotntaker@DilianiDimitri The preamble of Hamas’ charter is:
“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.”
This is genocidal intent.
@PHenryMartin1 Let's also not ignore the fact that Israel also committed war crimes. And I ask you still, does this justify attacking civilian buildings and such, just because there's a Hamas member in there?
@rotntaker Hamas has embedded itself among the civilian population and placed its war making assets in and underneath civilian centers. This is a war crime.
The extent to which Hamas uses its own people as meat shields against the aggression it provokes is the reason for the number.
@PHenryMartin1@DilianiDimitri A genocide doesn't necessarily mean just killing people, It can also involve: causing serious bodily or mental harm & etc.
@DilianiDimitri@rotntaker Israel is not committing genocide. The Arab population in Israel has grown every year since Israel was recognized as a state. The opposite would happen in a genocide.
Genocide requires intent. Only Hamas has declared such intent against the Jews.
@PHenryMartin1 1. Does this justify 20k being killed since the start of the war? Sounds like collective punishment to me.
2. "Death to America" doesn't represent all Arabs or Muslims.
@rotntaker Fact: Hamas was ELECTED by the people of Gaza to represent them. And
Fact: “Death to America” is what they were chanting in the Arab world on 9/11.
My facts are fine.
@PHenryMartin1@DilianiDimitri Yeah, Arabs outside of the West Bank. But they're still subject to discrimination and disadvantages. I don't know how that still justifies 20k people dying in Gaza?
@rotntaker@DilianiDimitri There are millions of Arabs right now who are full citizens of Israel. They vote in Israeli elections, hold office in the Knesset, live, work, worship. That is the opposite of genocide.
Genocide is what Hamas intends for the Jews. They declare it in their charter.
@DilianiDimitri Israel is not pursuing genocide in Gaza or anywhere else. If they were, they could’ve accomplished it by end-of-day October 8th.
Israel is in a war it did not start against a maniacal Arab enemy bent on its annihilation. Hamas & it’s supporters have earned their own extinction.
Islam is a religion of hate & violence. Iran President Ebrahim Raisi after the terrorist attack: "I warn the Zionist regime without doubt for this crime and the other crimes you commit you will pay a price that will make you regret badly." Crowd cheers "Death to America."
This is today folks!
These are the guys that have been bombing us, it’s hardly a pleasure to introduce this lot, Iranian backed Houthis and their Yemenis fans. They shout
ALLAH IS GREAT
DEATH TO AMERICA
DEATH TO JEWS
