Bad enuf that Israel has brutalized & oppressed Palestinians
for most of a century. Even more heinous is the genocide
against Palestinians.
Now it's begun attacks in other countries...which will provoke
more attacks...which will provoke ever more attacks...& so on.
This is not about self defense.
It is deadly blind vengeance fueled by religious bigotry.
USA props up Israel with money, weapons, & political
cover at the UN. This gives Israel the unlimited ability
to violate human rights & international law with impunity.
This must change.
Otherwise USA will be waging war on behalf of Israel.
Israel must be de-fanged before it precipitates WW3.
Biden & even some in Congress now seem concerned.
But still, USA leaders takes no steps to curb the carnage.
They have the power to stop it.
Instead, it's all talk & no walk.

Good evening Revoltingest.
The term 'genocide' is bandied about very loosely today. Israel has a right to defend herself. It seems you are simply repeating the rhetoric and lies promulgated by Hamas, the same Hamas which is teaching it's children in schools that if you have 5 Israeli's and you kill 3, how many are left. That's right. They are combining the indoctrination of their youth to exterminate the Jews with their curriculum. Either you have a very faulty memory, or you are simply deluded. Let's look at the definition of genocide. The first definition that I saw in putting this term in Google was this: "the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group."
As far as I can see, Israel has no intention of destroying any nation. They have an intention of defending themselves against terror. Hamas are the aggressors, but you fail to see that.
Now rewind to 1941. Or are you one of these foolish holocaust deniers? Genocide, ethnic cleansing, mass murder, mass shooting, death marches, poison gas, hate crime - around 6 million Jews died during the holocaust. Now that WAS genocide. And following what has been centuries of the horrible treating of Jews by Chr-stians also, they were eventually afforded a land which they could call their own, not without complications and even a desire to wipe out Israel and the Jews since its inset.
So let's talk about that genocide. Let's talk about the fact that the Jews have been hated upon in every single country they have resided. They have been expelled from countries. They have been persecuted. They have been ridiculed. The Jewish people base their claim to the land of Israel on at least four premises: 1) Yahweh promised the land to the patriarch Abraham; 2) the Jewish people settled and developed the land; 3) the international community granted political sovereignty in Palestine to the Jewish people and 4) the territory was captured in defensive wars.
As soon as Israel retaliates against aggression, "Don't do that! It's genocide!" What would you have Israel do? Lie down and take a beating? Do nothing while Iran threatens to wipe Israel off the face of the map? Do nothing while Hamas is devising to destroy as many Jews as possible? If you live in la la land, then sure, Israel is in the wrong, has no right to be there and should not be able to defend itself. Hamas needs to be removed, the hostages released and they cannot be allowed to commit the atrocities of October 7 again where they killed, tortured, ridiculed, burnt alive, raped and mutilated women, as well as showed no compassion to babies, or elderly. You want to defend wicked people, that's something you will have to deal with. But might I suggest the reason for this is the following:
Proverbs 28:4
"They that forsake the law praise the wicked; But such as keep the law contend with them."
