Israel will push on with its offensive against Hamas, including into the southern Gaza city of Rafah, despite growing international pressure to stop, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday.

Netanyahu has vowed to destroy Hamas after its fighters attacked southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing 1,200 people and abducting 253, according to Israeli tallies. More than 30,000 people have been killed in Gaza during Israel’s subsequent offensive, Palestinian health authorities estimate, prompting worldwide criticism and condemnation.

“There is international pressure and it’s growing, but particularly when the international pressure rises, we must close ranks, we need to stand together against the attempts to stop the war,” he said.

      At least your honest about your call for genocide, instead of pussyfooting around with “right to defend themselves” nonsense.

      The majority of the state of Mississippi does not support LGBT rights or protections for women That’s their culture, even if not everyone agrees with that. I assume your cool with genocideing Mississippi as well?

      This comment is so coldhearted and monstrous that I barely know how to respond to this one. The shear ignorance and idiocy it takes to justify genocide is fucking chilling. I really hope you take a minute to take a step back and really think about what you just said.

      You don’t agree with these people’s feelings on politics, ethics, and laws. Okay.

      …therefore it is okay in your eyes that men, women, children, and babies be murdered, bombed, stripped naked, raped, executed, tortured, and eliminated…because you don’t agree with them. Fucking yikes dude.

      For someone that considers LGBTQ, gender-inclusivity, and women’s rights important, your comment is beyond appalling and really speaks volumes about much depth and thought you really give beyond the face values of the things you support.

      Delete your comment. Reevaluate what it means to be human being, and I really hope you never forget what you wrote here. Seriously. Let it sink in the depravity of what you just supported. I hope it haunts you for the rest of your life - at least then you might possibly become a better human being for it.

          This is some “I’m 14 and this is deep” shit.

          You can’t “paradox of intolerance” this one as an argument to justify genocide you lunatic. Just because you heard something trendy in the Internet doesn’t mean it applies in all situations. It’s not a one-size-fits-all wrench to winning an argument - it just means you’re lazy and refuse to do any sort of critical thinking. By your logic, you can justify the murder of your neighbor because you feel that they are “intolerant” and you don’t agree with their political viewpoints.

              Let’s see if I got this right

              We’re violent and genocidal, so it’s ok to eliminate people who are bad, unlike us, the violent genociders. It’s also ok to eliminate the weak if you’re strong, and you’re fine with that because you’re weak so you can’t do anything about it.

              Have you considered therapy?

          I hate humanity in almost every form. I don’t give a shit about being a human being, human lives are worthless. My life is worthless, your life is worthless, their lives are worthless, it’s all worthless.

          It’s meaningless but it is not worthless. Even yours, despite all of the horrendous, wannabe edgy shit you just posted. One day you will cringe about this, and you’ll be a better person for it.

        At least we’ve gone from “stop calling it a genocide you darned leftists” to “genocide is good actually”. I appreciate the honesty at least

        I mean, we kill invasive species of animals don’t we? Are we not animals? Most of the people in here “worried” about genocide are just those who are trying to stir up shit about how it’s Biden’s “fault”.

        They aren’t worried about the genocide part, they’re worried about the political ramifications of attempting to make a political opponent look bad. They’re 3 Trump Supporters in a trench coat, pretending to care about something they think can land them political victory. You’ll never hear anyone give a shit outside of a political season.

      You are advocating for the elimination of an entire ethnicity. Being an advocate for mass murder/genocide, do you consider your own life to be among those that is worth nothing and should be ended? You’d be a massive fucking hypocrite if you don’t.
