Actually, I like to point out to people that Palestinians are a Semetic people, so there's no way supporting Palestinians can be anti - semetic.
Of course, nobody should be killed for no reason as is happening in Gaza.
But I'm hearing estimates that more than 50% of the regular population actually makes their living supporting Hamas or in some way takes actions often that supports the terror group.
If that's true, it casts things in a different light.
And in that new light does the mass murder of thousands of innocent women and children, the bombing of schools, universities, the bombing of hospitals and murder of doctors and nurses look acceptable to you?
Does Genocide look acceptable to you?
The people of Palestine voted for Hamas as a civilian govt. and as such Hamas worked to provide people with housing, health care access to food and wages to buy it, but the Israeli govt and military have worked to prevent that since 1948 so a militant resistance group arose to fight back.
Ignorants are often unaware that Hamas is a POLITICAL entity that happens to have an armed wing ( much like IRA/Sinn Fein) and the the vast majority of the world’s nations do NOT consider Hamas to be a “terror group”.

Palestinians have a right to defend themselves.
Well said, David!
