I dislike Hamas as much as anyone. I just don’t think it’s the right thing to do to starve and expel 2 million people (half of them under 18 years old) to fight them. IMO we should be supporting anti-Hamas movements in Gaza. You are correct about the long history of Russian imperialism. But you can’t seriously think the solution is to kill and eradicate 100M people? How about helping other people come to power who don’t want to invade their neighbors? Worked in Germany and Japan, who both had horrible Fascist empires, why not Russia?

You're dishonestly putting words in my mouth: what I said above was defeating their military and crushing their economy. You don't need to kill everyone in Russia to accomplish that. That may of course happen in the long run due to a collapsed economy. But that's not our problem and we're not the ones responsible if it happens. ...and again, you show your disregard for actual victims: the 40 million Ukrainians who have to live under war. Bringing up the number of Russians is practically making an argument that we should go easy on them because there happens to be more of them. It's kinda remarkable how close both situations are: in both cases you're protecting a violent, murderous, population that has repeatedly and intentionally massacred innocent people in their genocidal ambitions to wipe out a smaller minority group.

Sovereignty? It's an open air prison. Your takes are bizarre propaganda. If you have known nothing but oppression your entire life and live right next to a country rolling in money that is your oppressor, I'm fairly sure, given your outspoken idiocy, that you would be participating in whatever push back you could. Just stop.

"open air prison" 😂😂😂 I remember looking at Google maps just after Oct 7th and verifying that Gaza was in fact covered with beachfront resorts. If Gazans were sane they could have easily made themselves wealthy from Muslim oriented tourism. Unfortunately not only are Gazan's nuts, a high % of Islam worldwide is too. Gaza was a sovereign nation. And a relatively wealthy one too: higher GDP/capital than neighboring Egypt. Of course, their economy is kinda fake as so much was propped up by outside support from entities trying to destroy Israel. But the fact is, Oct 7th would have been impossible if Gaza was actually a prison. All those tunnels, rockets, and weapons cost billions of dollars.
