    When you’re facing a superior military force, non-violent resistance is the only rational course of action.

    Would you say this to the people involved in the Warsaw ghetto uprising?

    I might say to those people that victory is impossible and their survival is unlikely. But I wouldn’t have to because they already knew that. Their goal was to not to allow the Nazis choose the time and place of their deaths. Because there was actual genocide happening.

    Nobody called for a ceasefire with Germany to stop the genocide from happening. Because when it’s actual genocide, it can happen when there isn’t an active conflict between armed combatants.

    People calling for a ceasefire now are people that don’t actually believe that a genocide is happening. The holocaust didn’t end with a ceasefire. It ended when the Nazis were destroyed.

    Hamas committed genocide on October 7. They set the stage for this conflict and put Palestinian civilians in between them and the IDF. To them life has no value other than as a propaganda tool. Future genocide is possible if Hamas continues to exist. Future Palestinian casualties are likely as long as Hamas continues to exist. They need to be destroyed like the Nazis were to prevent genocide from happening in the future.

    Look at the photos of German cities at the end of WWII. Now look at photos of Gaza now. Do you see the similarity?

    Your comparison to events of WWII don’t exactly make the case you think it does. But that’s how it is with people that only understand history from the context of it being used for propaganda.
