So, here’s a question, what would be the appropriate Palestinian response to this?

Not whatever Hamas is doing.

Okay, Oct. 7 is what they did, but what are they currently doing that you think warrants the slaughter of tens of thousands of Palestinian children?

What level of response to that do you think Palestinians are entitled to?

Or do you think they deserve this for existing, and oppose any resistance at all?

You are aware that Hamas has continued armed fighting, including firing rockets at civilians since October 7, right? Just because Oct. 7 was by far the worse, that doesn’t mean they laid down their arms and surrendered.

So you think they should just let the genocide continue?

I think Hamas should surrender and release the hostages. I don’t see another realistic way to end the war at this point.

Well if they surrender then they will just kill more with less resistance
