I saw the article mentioned he had defended the Oct 7 attack so after some googling:
Yikes. Defending oct 7 was pretty fucked up move on his behalf but what Israel keeps doing is arguably worse. Both Hamas and Israel leadership need to be removed from this world…
What Israel is doing is worse, yet most world leaders are justifying Israel’s actions. Nobody seems to be condemning these political slimeballs. It seems that Hamas, a violent liberation movement is being held to a higher standard than nation states.

People called the ANC in South Africa and Nelson Mandela a terrorist too. It’s a label to try and vilify and dehumanize the other. The reality is that Israel is an apartheid state, and it’s committing genocide against the Palestinians. Hamas is only a product of that and they can only be defeated by ending the crimes against humanity.

Get educated:
“Many people were killed in protests, and the ANC’s armed wing was linked to several high-profile bombings that killed South African civilians throughout the 1980s, prompting some among the country’s white minority to blame the “terrorist” Mandela.”

What the allies did to the Nazis was worse too.
Words don’t justify a death sentence. This is the same bullshit reasoning that gets trotted out by bootlickers every time a cop murders a black person in the US. There’s a mad scramble to find the worst thing the victim ever did and claim that makes their murder ok.

I mean yes in the sense that the capture of civilians has a clear military objective. Doesn’t make it less awful.
One genocidal state doesn’t justify another one. There are no good guys in this conflict. That said one side has more bombs than the other so we should be focusing on that side. But please, no justifying war crimes.

I think many find it hard to believe Israel now. The Hamas side of the story is that Hamas were good to the hostages (and we have testimonies for that), and that many attacks were done by Gazan civilians who followed the fighters who broke down the fence, and indeed the video of Shani, the German Israeli, showed non-combatants parading her naked, not Hamas fighters.
Probably in a different narrative, Hamas performed a justified military operation to take hostages to free their own prisoners (whom we know are illegally detained by Israel without a charge and living through hell and torture in Israel prisons, at young ages). So far, it looks justied. Add to that all the evidence we have showing that many people on October 7th, especially those burned, were killed by IDF that was acting as though on steroids. I would be naive to assume no rape happened, but Israel’s evidence for “systemic rape as a war tactic” is extremely flimsy. Israel killed its own people and is now milking their dead bodies for PR to justify a genocide.
That being said, no documented crimes can be denied. A Hamas fighter throwing a grenade into a safe room full for people - there is footage of that.
Yeah. That guy should probably be hung.
If only executions reduced or prevented overall crime and violence…
What’s the size of his cock have to do with it?
u really eat what a terrorist organization feeds u that easily?
