In Italy even saying "stop genocide" without further elaboration on state tv is enough to get the Israelian ambassador to call the prime minister.

yeah but thats like saying I as an american have to be personally responsible for trump's behavior

  • That's completely different. People criticise trump without being accused of wanting to exterminate the entire population of the USA.

    But if you criticise israel, that's the standard answer you get.

    • I think part of the problem is that so many folks think its somehow Israel's job to absorb terrorist acts without any military response. I for one won't be part of that. Gaza seems to me to be little more than an Iranian military outpost from which they can launch attacks on Israel.

      I don't blame folks for being tired of this, but Gaza chose this route just like we in the US chose ours. Gaza made an extremely gross and unwise decision to go with the hamas losers. Its natural when a country picks poor quality folks to run their government that there may be consequences for their unwise choice. That goes for any country who picks the wrong leaders. I'm sure during world war 2 the civilians inhabiting axis territories probably experienced things you guys would call genocide.

      All people need to do is to come up with something other than the complete destruction of Israel, and maybe there could be the start of a peace process.
