Why is the killing of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians by the IDF not considered genocide? Because Hamas struck first and committed atrocities to the Jewish people? That’s where I get stuck. 1200 barbaric deaths by a group hellbent on the decimation of the Jewish people deserves a retaliatory attack that results in the decimation of 1000 Hamas terrorists, responsible for the original attacks plus another 18,000+ innocents in Gaza. So, Israel should not be criticized and if you do criticize then you are antisemitic? 🤷🏽‍♂️

The "killing of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians by the IDF" is if true, collateral damage to something that Hamas, and for that matter the PA, Qatar, Saudis etc can stop whenever they want, Maybe you are complicit if you don't see that there are hostages and that Hamas kills Palestinians too and refuse to negotiate. .

Hamas is a known terrorist group. But is Netanyahu’s plan to bomb to oblivion all of Gaza, kill hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women, and children, all in order to kill every member of Hamas, not genocide? All in the name of ‘protecting Israelis’. I’d that

Is the answer, then there were never truer words than spoken by Ghandhi, “practicing an eye for an eye will do nothing then to leave us both blind.” Indiscriminate bombing of innocent Gazans will create another generation of young people with hatred for Jews and the Israeli government. This when young people were making advances. The true evil here, as usual, is the extremists in both countries. And to answer your question, am I complicit? Yes. As long as I stay silent about what Israel, the US, and other allies are doing that further creates humanitarian crises for women and children without any end game or ‘day after’ strategy. Netanyahu will be seen as a war criminal if this continues and innocents continue to die.
