You said in another comment that Israel is justified in their violence because Hamas is their neighbor that has been launching bombs across the border.
And in this comment you blame Hamas violence on bigotry.
Until you acknowledge the decades of unprovoked violence to the Palestinian people by Israeli settlers, you will not be taken seriously.
Israelis are capable and have shown clear bigotry towards the Palestinians. And Hamas is violent because they were forced to be neighbors with settlers that were often violent.
You can keep pretending to be unbiased, but your bias is showing very clearly.
Link the part of the Hamas founding charter that says anything about America. I'll wait, good luck.
On the other hand, "from the river to the sea" (the feared slogan) is a direct reply to the Likud's election manifesto from 1977 which stated: "Between the sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty."
My first guess would be the Nakba, which led to the current apartheid state.
What's the date of that charter?
