> The Hamas Charter explicitly called for the “annihilation” of the Jewish state.

See, this is what grinds my effing gears. On one hand you have a party "calling" for the "annihilation" of Israel. On the other hand, you have a part who is calling for the annihilation of palestinians AND they are ACTIVELY doing it. But no, you have to draw an equivalence somehow ...

> you have a part who is calling for the annihilation of palestinians

No you don't.

You have a democratically elected government aiming for the dismantling of Hamas.

Hamas is the proscribed terror organisation that is currently leading Gaza.

Israel is not calling for the annihilation of Palestinians.

The death of Palestinians is entirely the fault of Hamas, whose blatent and attrocious terrorism led Israel with no choice other than to respond with force and defend Israeli citizens from the further attrocities that Hamas have promised.
