Comment on Israel says to block Gaza-bound aid boat carrying Greta Thunberg

These are two comments that you have made, and I think people are pointing out the contradiction:

Israel is not a single person. The Israelis being held hostage are certainly victims. Antisemitism in the west has reached a point where it’s no longer safe to raise awareness that Hamas is still holding Israelis hostage, see the Boulder, CO attack. You’re being told you should dehumanize all Israelis (along with anyone that even has empathy for Israelis) so you can believe a simple narrative where all Israelis are evil. Likely you’re also being told that anyone that has empathy for Israelis being held hostage are evil (aka the “Zionist Jews”). You’re probably just not to the point where you’re believing all Jews are evil, but you might be willing to look the other way about the actions of those that do.

Yeah Italy just rolled over in WWII while Germany fought to the bitter end. Do you think it was better that Germany continued fighting when it was obvious they’d lost because some authoritarian asshole convinced them they should own all of the land they wanted with no more Jews?

Look at the photos of German cities at the end of WWII and look at Gaza. This kind of senseless hatred doesn’t accomplish anything other than getting a lot of people killed.

Palestinians are dying because of the hatred of Hamas and it will accomplish exactly nothing.

Also, in your opinion, what should people do in order to end the suffering and violence? Not just for any particular side, but for everyone.
