The current state of the Israeli government and the intense fascist impulse driving its leaders to genocide would suggest "the average (enfranchised) Israeli" is maybe not as fine or as nice as we'd like to believe.
Engaging with any kind of online community of Israelis feels like I'm stepping into a Der Sturmer article, what with all the intense hate and vitriol aimed at virtually any non-Israeli.
Who, specifically, in Hamas leadership is a monster? Name some names. Is it the head of UNWRA? The chief physician at the Al-Shifa Hospital? The press editor at Al Jaazera magazine? The folks working at the World Central Kitchen?
Because I've heard all of these organizations are hosting Hamas leadership. I've yet to hear anything else about them that explains why they deserved to die, other than that they're "Hamas Leadership" and "Hamas Leadership are monsters".
https://nypost.com/2023/11/01/news/hamas-official-vows-to-repeat-israel-attacks-again-and-again-until-its-destroyed/
People in Hamas leadership positions like Ghazi Hamad from this article, who can talk a big talk from the safety of outside Palestine and ignore their people's suffering.
I don't give a rats' ass about Israel's lies and deception calling everyone and anyone that disagrees with their genocidal tactics as a Hamas sympathizer. Yeah and I'm of the stance that Israeli has had no business being in there for months and are actively commiting genocide, killing a massive excess of civilians and disrupting humanitarian aid.
But make no mistake, just like there are hardcore religious evangelicals in the US there are emboldened religious warmongerers in Palestine who are equally blind to Palestinian suffering for a higher cause as the Israeli extremist government is.

It sounds like Hamad has been instrumental in back channeling communications with the Israeli government. Also looks like he wasn't in Gaza during the Al Aqsa Flood. Is he ignoring his neighbors' suffering by reestablishing dialogue with his Israeli colleague and trying to end the hostilities? Or was he supposed to fling himself onto the bayonets at the Israel-Lebanon border after Gaza was sealed off by the Israelis?
You're citing an article from the NYPost, so you clearly don't mind at least a little bit of their lies and deception. You've picked out a guy who appears to be some kind of underground media publisher, amateur medic, and glorified border guard as a party leader and a "monster".
Is there anything you're citing more monstrous than his hatred of Israel?
To my knowledge, hardcore religious evangelicals in the US aren't traditionally kettled in an open air prison and subject to targeted assassinations on the whims of New Atheist military commanders. I'm willing to give a guy like David Koresh a bit of leeway in his hatred of the American government, if for no other reason than the FBI surrounded his house and killed a dozen of his friends. I have significantly less sympathy for your Jerry Falwell Jrs and your James Dobsons.
I've got a family friend who lost 23 members of her immediate family in the course of a weekend, when the Israeli government began its carpet bombing of Gaza City. If she went into a full blown Mein Kempf rant after that, I could hardly blame her. But to claim she's somehow a warmonger for hating the people who obliterated half her family tree?
Did we hold Americans to that standard after 9/11?
You wanted names of someone spouting violent rhetoric on the Palestinian side, I gave you one. Has nothing to do with UNWRA, World Kitchen, MSF or journalists. All reasons and justification are set aside.
Many did protest the disproportionate response to 9/11, and Americans still face many repercussions today in the privacy of their daily lives.
I agree with you on what you're saying. In my eyes the Israeli military's actions are very, very far from justifiable at this point in time. I'll remind you that it has been 8 months from when I wrote the original comment in October, before the WCK event in April, UNRWA defunding in January and several bombings of refugee camps between November and May. I don't see a reason to continue to have an argument over this.
I did not ask for that at all. You substituted him in because he's the worst person you could find with a Google search.
I apologize if I interpreted this question from you incorrectly. I'd tried to respond in good faith to you in this months old thread, but after 3 argumentative replies my patience has run thin. Have a good day.
