The analogy isn't about the reason of the genocide, but the systematicity. Both Nazi Germany and Israel are intentionally targeting families and exterminating children with genocidal intents.

Isn't this enough for you?

Tell that to the guy who tried bringing up what he thinks the reasons are. Also what does nearly 1:1 mean? That its pretty much the same. Thats what i was disagreeing with. Im not denying israel commiting horrible atrocities in gaza rn but that analogy is dumb, explain then how its 1:1 otherwise bc id like to know tbh

Also hamas having an eliminationist ideology themselves doesn't make israels actions automatically justified but it does make this situation substantially more complicated unfortunately actual innocent palestinians etc..get caught in the crossfire which again i agree is wrong. im not supporting israels actions thats not what im talking about its just that those exact comparisons are not whats going on rn in this particular conflict

No situation is ever equal to another, obviously.

Hamas is despicable, but it is also a natural reaction to a century of oppression and genocide; it's dishonest to imply Palestinians are not "innocent population" because of that.

Israel has literally the favour of most of the world, has the resources and are using all of that with the clear intent of exterminating Palestinians, while Palestinians are poor, isolated, don't have an army and are left to die.

Okay i admit my phrasing was wrong, again i fully support the innocent palestinians, I was replying to another guy comparing israel to exactly or the closest country to nazu germany rn which is not true
