    Israeli and Hamas leaders are equal: bringing about the destruction of their people for political gain.

    May those who never had a fair chance at life, meeting a painful and fearful end, find rest and peace in their next journey.

      One is fighting for freedom. The other is committing genocide. They are not the same.

        Meh, their similar enough that up until 2019 Israel publicly funded Hamas to explicitly weaken the Palestinian government. Both sides want thier little far right ethnostate. The only distinction in their minds is which race gets it.

          One has nukes. The other doesn’t have a standing military. They’re not “similar enough” at all.

            The capacity to enforce thier ethnostate doesn’t seem like that much of a change when discussing thier idoligy. If Russia or Pakistan have Hamas a standing army and nukes tomorrow i doubt they would suddenly change thier stated end goals, simpley be capible of far more violence in furtherance of thouse goals.
