“I will be telling Bibi [Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu] to finish the job once and for all with these butchers Hamas. They’re terrorists. They’re massacring innocent people. They would wipe every Jew off the globe if they could,” Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor, said. Haley, a former ambassador to the United Nations, was equally forthright. “The first thing I said to him when it happened was, ‘finish them’.

    So… Are you unironically trying to tell me that every Palestinian is a Hamas terrorist? That’s a pretty extreme position to take, my guy, and it’s also the only way to reconcile what was quoted in the article with your editorialized headline.

      You’re train of thought is the reason 420 children are getting blown up indiscriminately everyday. I don’t know how your conscious let’s you justify murdering hundreds of children everyday just to “fight Hamas” but you are the problem my friend.

        Whoosh. They are pointing out an implication you made editorializing and now you’re getting indignant over your own implied position.

        Edit: Since edited, the original editorialized headline read, “Republicans support genocide of Palestinians,” or something similar, when the quotes were regarding Hamas. Op was conflating the two when they changed the headline.

            The quotes you quoted were talking specifically about Hamas being wiped out. The headline says Palestinians. The two are not mutually exclusive. That’s everyone’s issue. It’s a clearly sensationalized headline meant to provoke this type of reaction.
