Somehow every attempt to reason with people like you ends up to you getting pissed and ending the discussion.
I'm interested in real life solutions. Not fantasies. You can advocate for 'stopping genocide and oppression everywhere' all you want. Religious extremists like Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis and ISIS couldn't care less about your wishes. Death for Isreal and death for America is what they want and they'll happily tell you this.
Despite the high number of civilian casualties, Israel is actually doing a better job at it that the US has with their skirmishes in the middle east. It's not like they're not trying to minimize the civilian casualties, Hamas just makes it really hard by using their population as human shields.
Also, if you look at the videos of Israeli civilian hostages dragged thru the streets of Gaza after the october 7 invasion, there's a good number of palestinian civilians cheering. Would the Israeli population be doing the same thing were IDF to drag raped Palestinian women thru the streets of Israel? I doubt it.
Hamas is a death cult. There's no negotiating with them. The only solution is their complete destruction and showing the world that these views will not be tolerated. It's the average muslim who suffers the most because of these religious extremists.
let alone the capability to do a genicide
Genocide is exactly what Hamas would do if they did have the capacity. Israel could wipe out every single one of them if they wanted to. They haven't. Wiping out jews is the stated goal of Hamas in the 1988 charter.
A good number of left-wing politicans in my country would be considered right-wing in the USA.
So what’s the harm in at least giving into their demands?
If people refused to vote because both candidates support Israel, then whose to say that suggesting to withdraw that support wont make an equal or greater number of people to then vote for the candidate who does?
trans, blacks, and other minorities
To be fair, a good number of people voted for Trump because of identity politics as well
Nato without USA is still bigger military than Russia.
I'd rather lose my hearing than vision if those are the only two options, despite not actually wanting to lose neither - which is not an option.

Do you apply this same logic to Gaza considering their leadership?
Reddit says it was a Shahed drone. I can't tell but seem to be missing the tail I've seen on most of the Ukrainian drones tho I neither can see the long nose that Shahed has.
I'm not American
