Yes, I am proudly biased against groups that commit genocide before our eyes and deny it, dispossess indigenous peoples of their ancestral homes and turn them into refugees in foreign lands, along with fascist ideologies which call for the establishment and maintenance of an ethnostate and sheepishly justify Nazi collaboration and ethnic cleansing as a means to that end. Stay as mad at that as you like and have the day you deserve.
Your aljazeera source with hamas sourced numbers is the misinfo.
Hamas is not only its armed wing. It is the entire government in Gaza. Its numbers have historically been considered reliable by the United Nations, the World Health Organization, and Human Rights Watch. In relation to the Gaza war, two letters published in The Lancet journal did not find evidence of inflation or fabrication of Palestinian casualty numbers. There is no reason to cast doubt on their estimates than to deny that Israel is committing a genocide.
Andrew Fox is a research fellow at the Henry Jackson Society. He served for 16 years in the British Army, leaving the Parachute Regiment with the rank of Major. He completed 3 tours in Afghanistan including one attached to US Army Special Forces, as well as further tours of Bosnia, Northern Ireland and the Middle East.
The Henry Jackson Society is a trans-Atlantic foreign policy and national security think tank, based in the United Kingdom. While describing itself as non- partisan, its outlook has been described variously as right-wing, neoliberal, and neoconservative.
This is your source?? A fucking British soldier that has made a living occupying Ireland and running around shooting at Arabs????? Writing at the behest of a right wing think tank??????????
The rest of this is racist Zionist slop that I shouldn't even justify with a response, because even if it was a completely honest portrayal it would not justify genocide, but to start; Palestinians cannot be held responsible for actions that other arab nations took after 1948 (in response to the horrific acts committed during the nakba, but that nonetheless does not justify it) or the antisemitism that was in large part purposefully fomented in those nations by Israel to advance the Zionist mission. The intention of establishing a Jewish state in Palestine has been made clear since Zionism first emerged in the late 19th century. The mass transfer of Jews to historic palestine and the ensuing displacement of Palestinians started before even 1933, which is when the Haavara agreement was signed between Nazis and Zionist collaborators. It has never been about "self defense" and that is a fucking shameful way to justify the violent expulsion of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from their home land.
You have an agenda and no amount of logic will ever change it.
Back at you.
Get the fuck out of here you disgusting fucking Zionist.
So for Israel it's just Netanyahu, but for the organized resistance against Israel, it's the entire group? I don't think you know what chauvinism really is, or why it's bad. You also avoided my question:
Is there any organization that could take up arms; put their lives on the line and use violence strategically to defend their people and resist violent occupation; that you would not denounce?
Forgive me if I don't believe you're really motivated by being against governments or tyranny. If you're not in favor of resistance, then what your argument essentially boils down to is "everyone does it, therefore it can't be helped when the government I don't want to criticize is doing it 100-fold with the help of powerful allies for the purpose of genocide, because that's just what governments do". The only thing it serves is soothing your conscience and lack of curiosity.
You care to comment, but you don't care to learn anything that goes too hard against the state narrative. So you end up with shallow analysis and platitudes that reinforce the status quo, and you arrogantly assume that you or someone like you would know better than the people in the region who have spent their entire lives learning and resisting. This is in stark conflict with your supposed aversion to tyranny.
It is your responsibility to investigate before you speak. If I may, I would suggest you start here
I wasn't denouncing violence, I was denouncing bad men.
Violence is violence, and none of it is justified.
Yes you were????
Who is the "bad man" on the Hamas side that hasn't already been martyred? If there is none, why do you denounce Gaza's entire government but only one "bad man" when it comes to Israel? Is there any organization that would take up arms; put their lives on the line and use violence strategically to defend their people and resist violent occupation; that you would not denounce?

Edit: a couple corrections.
She's Pashtun (Pakistani), not arab, but she is a practicing Muslim. She was fighting against the Taliban's ban on girls from education, which is not a feature of the rest of the muslim world. It's a feature of extreme fundamentalism, of any religion, not of Islam.
