How can one call this a war on Hamas? This level of destruction in Beit Hanoun only serves to make Gaza uninhabitable. To leave 2.3 million Palestinians with nothing to return to - so that they won't return. Biden attended Israel's war cabinet and approved the war plan.

This is clearly about Israel, not about Jews. The line above and below the star depict the flag of 🇮🇱. Israel equals death for tens of thousands of Palestinians. You can't pretend otherwise. Being real about Israel killing people is not antisemitic. CIJA = zero credibility.

Intifada = "uprising", "shaking off". It's not inherently violent. It's against 🇮🇱 because 🇮🇱 is the violent oppressor for 75+ years. If you feel "intimidated", look at yourself and why you identify with an oppressive state. In 🇨🇦, we are free to call for others' freedom.
