    You do realize that, based on what you’ve said so far, you’re also saying that an acceptable resistance to genocide is genocide. I hope you realize that anyway.

      That’s absolutely absurd. If Palestine was capable of inflicting genocide upon its oppressors, they’d not be in this situation to begin with. Can we talk about reality here?

          But it doesn’t. If they started a genocide against Israel, they’d no longer be the oppressed but the oppressors. And therefore they’d have no “resistance” to justify such a thing.

          In any case Palestine doing a 180⁰ and becoming the genociders is a ridiculous line of thought with no purpose.

            Killing every Israeli to stop genocide is not resisting the genocide?

            Sounds like resistance to me.

            And this is what you said:

            Resistance by Palestine is valid in any form given it’s position.

            It’s not my fault that you made an absolutist statement. It’s yours. In any form includes genocide.

            (Also, killing every baby in a maternity ward, whether you stomp them to death or not, is also a genocidal act. You already said you wouldn’t condemn that.)
