“But Israel”

I am so tired of seeing “But Israel” in comments.

But Israel doesn’t go in and shoot everyone in sight.

But Israel doesn’t make videos celebrating kidnapping children.

There is no comparison between Israel and Hamas, or between the fighters for one side and the fighters for the other.

One day all (remaining) Palestinians will be free and we’ll live side by side as fully equal citizens with all the rights.

But it’s clear that Hamas will have to be fully eliminated first.

Any hope of Hamas leading Gazans to freedom ended yesterday.

A free Palestine will come but it will be built on the smoking ruins of Hamas.”
