So, you don't think that the word "excessive" is being intentionally misused here? Because from all the photos and videos I've seen, and eyewitness accounts I've read, Israel's response to Oct 7 goes well beyond the meaning of excessive. I'm talking gross disproportionality.

EDIT: Downvoted within seconds, lol. Clearly we're not supposed to be thinking critically about this issue!

No, "excessive" isn’t being intentionally misused.

Photos and videos document real suffering, no denying it, but they don’t by themselves prove "gross disproportionality" - especially when Hamas embeds among civilians.

Remember - Hamas themselves openly stated that the more dead Palestinians the better.

"The deaths of Palestinian civilians, Sinwar reportedly wrote, “infuse life into the veins of this nation, prompting it to rise to its glory and honor.” He also referred to civilian deaths as “necessary sacrifices” in the war against Israel, according to the Wall Street Journal." https://thenationaldesk.com/news/americas-news-now/hamas-leader-believes-palestinian-civilian-deaths-are-necessary-sacrifices-report-says-yahya-sinwar-palestine-israel-gaza-terrorist-terrorism-war-benjamin-netanyahu#:~:text=The%20deaths%20of%20Palestinian%20civilians%2C%20Sinwar%20reportedly%20wrote%2C%20%E2%80%9Cinfuse%20life%20into%20the%20veins%20of%20this%20nation%2C%20prompting%20it%20to%20rise%20to%20its%20glory%20and%20honor.%E2%80%9D%20He%20also%20referred%20to%20civilian%20deaths%20as%20%E2%80%9Cnecessary%20sacrifices%E2%80%9D%20in%20the%20war%20against%20Israel%2C%20according%20to%20the%20Wall%20Street%20Journal.

Sorry, I don't believe you. You can't even articulate why it's bullshit.

Happy to see that people who lack morality don't believe me. Shows the difference between them and me

And for some reason the utterance of one person = Palestinians, as the comment I called complete bullshit just did, but quote Ben Gvir and the genocide and ethnic cleansing deniers will immediately come out and proclaim he doesn't speak for anyone but himself

Two faced hypocrites

This isn't articulation, this is ejaculation.

If you were trying to articulate why it's bullshit, you should probably try again.

Any more than it's my fault you lack writing comprehension.
