> The October 7th attacks were a gift to Israel's government, so they could gaslight the world into thinking the horrible shit they were already doing was to stop Hamas. What did the village of Masafer Yatta do to them?

This is one of the most disgusting, vile statements I've seen on hacker news.

Only if you completely misread it and conflate the Israeli government with people living in Israel, which is a good way to misrepresent what I'm saying.

A government using a terrorist attack to justify its already rapid military expansion? Unheard of.

If you're disgusted by this sentiment, it means you have more good faith with the Israeli government than actual Jewish people, which is really sad. What's antisemitic is telling other Jewish people that they are self-hating when they don't clap for hospitals being bombed and children burned with white phosphorous. If you don't find this [1] vile, you are not a person who can judge morality.

And you were in this thread calling everyone who disagreed with you an Islamist cabal before you were flagged. Not sure I care about the opinion of such a blatantly brainwashed person.
