And I’m not a Democrat or Republican.. I’m an independent who wishes RFK had a chance at being president in spite of his feelings on Israel

I don't know what his feelings are, but I don't think he's out there cheering on Hamas like so many Democrats.

I’m definitely not anti Jew.. I’m anti- ongoing slaughter… my disdain for Israel has nothing to do with Jewish people.. There are 100s of thousands of Jews against this ongoing genocide of women, children, and men that started long before Oct 7

You don't know your history, or don't care. Gaza was unoccupied since 2005, they voted in a terror group in 2006. They wanted war; it's actually a war against humanity. Did the Allies not bomb German cities during the Second World War? Did civilians not get killed? If someone comes to your house to slaughter you, well do you say, I won't go after him or her because I may kill some civilians from collateral damage.

Sorry, I'm from that part of the world and in the 20s, 30s and 40s Arabs were slaughtering Jews randomly. I don't have sympathy for the Gazans. Most of them, 72% in a recent poll, supported the October 7 massacre. You are dealing with savages. Israeli soldiers have been twisting themselves in knots trying to avoid civilian casualties and have lost lives unnecessarily because of course Hamas, places itself in schools, mosques, etc. So in fact, Hamas is responsible for civilian deaths in Gaza.
