You can't be outraged at your own extremely specific framing, then pretend these events have come out of nowhere. It's about the Israeli oppressive state, not about historic anti-Semitism. The pretense that these events happen in a vacuum is the most intellectually uncurious game of make believe imaginable..

You have defended Hamas, and even basically expressed support for them, in this very thread so I think my framing was legitimate. And every statement acknowledging the horror of the attacks has always been followed by a 'but'.
You keep talking about what Israel has done as if there is no distinction between state and citizen which is the exact problem. Hamas don't make that distinction either hence they consider every Israeli a legitimate target including civilians and even including children. Can you show me a time when Israelis have carried an innocent woman's mutilated body through the streets to cheers and celebrations?
