I totally agree.
I'm just following the logic of those who claim the carpet bombing of Gaza is acceptable because the Palestinians once voted for Hamas.
A. It's not carpet bombing. Less than one casualty per bomb dropped even if you round up.
B. https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/the-nazi-case-for-hamas/
Any before and after photos of entire demolished Gaza neighbourhoods makes it clear what a farce your claim is.
May you never experience a true carpet bombing.
The death toll would be in the 100k+
In Dresden in the B link 60k died in one night.
Didn't work for his defense then doesn't now. It's the basis of the laws of war and Geneva Conventions.
As it turns out a place the size of jersey city with 500km of tunnels is entrenched
It's not a claim it's a fact that Gaza isn't being carpet bombed. Overlay the maps of damage from satellite imagery with where tunnels were known to be previously in public knowledge.
It's not every day that you hear propaganda from the 40's. The total death toll of the Dresden carpet bombings was 25k.
So one of the most common forms of social media deception is posting screen shots but not the links themselves.
I'm curious about your screen shots, can you send the links?
Sure.

E: here's also a UN submitted report on the fact Hamas uses child soldiers and indoctrinated them. https://www.un.org/unispal/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/AHRC46NGO42_050321.pdf
https://youtu.be/dtErUuBvcRc?si=f7DeVBj8ahJMiybY and here's a video published by a preschool where they teach the kids to do some fucked up things.
Also here's another interview with the former heir of one of Hamas' co-founders and leaders in the West Bank. I have others in my comment history from this guy who is actually pretty famous.
(I don't like the interviewer but he mostly shuts up and let's the Palestinian who was in and out of Israeli prisons for years since he was 10 talk. Yousef touches on a lot of the same points across the different interviews he's done but this one has a bit more nuance.)

Thanks for the links.
Happy to help anyone who wants to know more about the regional context.
There's just so fucking much of it too.
