    The "cease-fire."

    Israel has made clear that its goal is complete ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people, and maybe even larger parts of the Middle East, because it was promised to them by God. If you're a person who can listen to Israeli officials' public statements about what they wish to do and deny this, the fact that they're continuing to move in Gaza is not going to convince you.

    The West Bank wasn't even involved, and it's currently being invaded - and monitored desperately by propagandists for an excuse to start the eradication there, too.

    We're not only not going to stop it, we're not going to stop paying for it. We're the jihadis.

      Curious, Iran has made the same statement about Israel

        And upon such time that Iran starts killing Israelis by the tens of thousands, we can give Iran's messaging equal weight.

        Nearly every neighbor of Israel has made statements of this type over the years, and yet, none have been in a position militarily for any such statements to amount to more than hot air.

        Israel is a bad guy in a sea of other bad guys, but currently, only Israel is carrying out a genocide.
