  1. Hamas is not taking part in Eurovision.
  2. A war crime is a war crime and a genocide is a genocide, no matter the justification.
  3. Calling Hammas the aggressor ignores quite a bit of complicated history.

Hamas is the aggressor in this specific part of the almost 100 year old conflict, that resulted in the current circumstances.

What genocide are you referring to?

None in particular, I’m saying there is no excuse for genocide. So to determine if Israel is committing one, the actions of Hamas are irrelevant.

By that logic the specific part of the current genocide in Gaza Israel is the unambiguous aggressor.

Like: You cannot just ignore what came before. WTF?
