I swapped the original article at the request of a mod to from a source deemed more reliable, but to avoid confusion when reading the comment section prior to this edit, here is the link to the original article. I chose the Relief Web source listed by some who commented. Cheers!

    No it really isn’t; the genocide currently being perpetuated by the Israel is one of the greatest atrocities of our time, and irrelevant bleatings about Hamas are a naked attempt to distract from that fact.

      I’m not disputing that that’s the case. But simplifying a conflict that is almost a hundred years old into a binary blame model is silly.

        Nah, I’m happy to say that genocide is bad without feeling the need to both sides it.
