      Here’s a picture of the 2 confirmed victims of that first strike you’re referring to.

      Edit for sake of accuracy: Hezballah just confirmed the death of their targeted member after previously claiming he survived which should put death toll at 4 including a woman and the 2 mentioned kids along with 74 injured in the strike

            They feel compelled by the fact they don’t think the children are human

              Israel may be an ethnostate, but the actions of its leadership are not representative of the Jewish population as a whole. That is to say, stop disingenuously conflating criticism of a genocidal government with antisemitism.

                  It’s evident that you’re cherry-picking tangential details to argue against, so let me say this in unambiguous terms:

                  Accusing Jews of being unable to stop themselves from murdering children is unambiguous antisemitism with a long history dating back to the Middle Ages.

                  People here are not accusing Jews of doing anything. We aren’t using “Israel” as a stand-in or dogwhisle for ethnically Jewish people or the Jewish religion.

                  People are accusing the government of Israel of being unwilling to refrain from committing war crimes.

                  Everyone rational has always believed this. The government of Israel is not the Jewish people any more than the government of ISIS was representative of Muslims.

                Says the person trying to link criticism of Israel to antisemitism.

                Everyone is tired of this nonsense. Israel Is not Jewish people, many Jews outright hate the state. You can freely attack and criticise Israel without it being a reflection on Jewish people.

                The only person who would think otherwise is an actual antisemite.

                    No one cares about your hateful nonsense.

                    Criticism of Israel is not criticism of Judaism.

                    End of fucking story.

      If you define “good” as 1) a dangerous escalation that could spark a regional war and 2) effectively killing all hope of a ceasefire in Gaza, then I guess so?

          Of course. Who else would be providing the requisite military hardware?

          The slavish display that we witnessed at Netanyahu’s speech in Congress makes it clear that the US is going to back Israel no matter what.
