Because in the first hour of Hamas' attack on Israel, they fired more than 3000 rockets into Israeli neighborhoods hoping to kill, injure, maim as many men, women, children, babies as they could. They didn't even try to hit military targets and killed more than 1,100 people in that initial attack. Then the initial ground invasion resulted in the most horrendous imaginable torture and murder of civilians they didn't kill with the rockets as well as the kidnapping of hundreds.
And they indicated their ultimate goal is to destroy Israel and kill all the Jews.
If you think that doesn't justify retaliation from Israel and justification for taking out Hamas completely, I sincerely with all my heart wish you would leave America and join forces with Hamas because that is the kind of person you must be. (And take Luiza with you as her posts indicate that she is of the same mentality as you.)
You act as if there were never any hostilities between Palestine's native residents and Zionists until 7 October 2023 when Zionist terrorist gangs began exterminating Palestinians(1) in 1948 with the same impunity as Israeli "Settlers" murder Palestinian civilians today. (2)
Face facts.
Even Jewish sources see Netanyahu's genocidal agenda for what it is:
āA Textbook Case of Genocideā
āIsrael has been explicit about what itās carrying out in Gaza. Why isnāt the world listening?ā

EXCERPTS āIsraelās campaign to displace Gazansāand potentially expel them altogether into Egyptāis yet another chapter in the Nakba, in which an estimated 750,000 Palestinians were driven from their homes during the 1948 war that led to the creation of the State of Israel. But the assault on Gaza can also be understood in other terms: as a textbook case of genocide unfolding in front of our eyes. I say this as a scholar of genocide, who has spent many years writing about Israeli mass violence against Palestinians. I have written about settler colonialism and Jewish supremacy in Israel, the distortion of the Holocaust to boost the Israeli arms industry, the weaponization of antisemitism accusations to justify Israeli violence against Palestinians, and the racist regime of Israeli apartheid. ā
āIsraeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant declared it in no uncertain terms on October 9th: āWe are imposing a complete siege on Gaza. No electricity, no food, no water, no fuel. Everything is closed. We are fighting human animals, and we will act accordingly.ā
Indeed, Israelās genocidal assault on Gaza is quite explicit, open, and unashamed. Perpetrators of genocide usually do not express their intentions so clearly,
Israelās goal is to destroy the Palestinians of Gaza. And those of us watching around the world are derelict in our responsibility to prevent them from doing so.ā CONTINUED
What is vague about Defense Minister Gallant's intention to starve all of Gaza's residents to death?
How is Yoav Gallant any better than Genrikh Yagota with his starvation order? (3)
(1). āDeir Yasin Massacre, 09.04.1948ā
EXCERPT " One of the worst Zionist massacres committed against Palestinians is the Deir Yasin massacre. Defenceless Palestinian civilians were tortured before being massacres and their bodies mutilated. Women and children were raped, babies were butchered and pregnant women were bayoneted." CONTINUED
(2). "Israel Must Loudly Arrest the Murderous West Bank Settlers"
Or risk losing any moral authority in this war.

EXCERPT "Since Hamasā Oct. 7 attack,
settlers there have killed more than 120 Palestinians and injured at least 2,000. They have forcibly expelled more than 800 Palestinians from their homes, blown up their generators and solar panels, and burned down tents of Bedouin herders.
Again: This has been going on not in Gaza but in the West Bankāwhich is governed by the Palestinian Authority, not by Hamas." CONTINUED
(3). "Stalin's Jews"
"We mustn't forget that some of greatest murderers of modern times were Jewish"

EXCERPT "And us, the Jews? An Israeli student finishes high school without ever hearing the name "Genrikh Yagoda," the greatest Jewish murderer of the 20th Century, the GPU's deputy commander and the founder and commander of the NKVD. Yagoda diligently implemented Stalin's collectivization orders and is responsible for the deaths of at least 10 million people.
In 1934, according to published statistics, 38.5 percent of those holding the most senior posts in the Soviet security apparatuses were of Jewish origin. They too, of course, were gradually eliminated in the next purges.
Many Jews sold their soul to the devil of the Communist revolution and have blood on their hands for eternity. We'll mention just one more: Leonid Reichman, head of the NKVD's special department and the organization's chief interrogator, who was a particularly cruel sadist."CONTINUED
