In reply to the discussion: Gaza will be entirely destroyed, Israeli minister says [View all]iemanja
(56,029 posts)73. You consider a country wiping out an entire population
an ally? Is that the kind of foreign relations you want to promote? Who should be eradicated next? Why not let Russia exterminate Ukrainians? Russia is the current administration’s ally. Perhaps we should follow Israel’s example and kill all Canadians and Mexicans?
Palestine isn’t a nation and therefore lacks international standing to be an ally, which you well know. Additionally, our tax dollars are paying for their extermination.

All war is unconscionable. Maybe Hamas will remember that this time before starting one again.

As if there ever was any doubt that ethnic cleansing was the goal. West Bank is next.

I hear this a lot that what is going on in Gaza isn't a genocide. I beg to differ.
