Nope. The majority of the world’s Jewish population lives outside Israel, and does not want to live in Israel. There are about about 6.5 million Jews in Israel, 5.5 million Jews in the USA, and about 6.5 million Jews in Europe (inc Russia).
Hamas has no designs on Western Europe, Eastern Europe, America or Russia; nor in the Jews that live there. Hamas is against Zionism which is not actually believed to the extent they live it by most Jews.
This is what you Israel supporters just don’t get - Israel is not in any way representative of the worlds Jews and not even where most of them live or want to live!

That’s bullshit right there. Perhaps you are unaware that the definition of genocide does not require the intent to kill, maim, or destroy ALL of a race or ethnic group, only a significant chunk or concentrated area of it.
From Wikipedia, with a direct quotation of the legal definition: 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (CPPCG). Article 2 of this convention defines genocide as “any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part…”
Just because Hamas “doesn’t want” to take over Western Europe it does not follow that they are not genocidal fucking maniacs according to the definition.

What would you consider a “fair two state solution”?

Well because I read a lot about Israel. Not many on this thread actually seem to.

Uh huh. What exactly has your reading list comprised itself of?
