The Unapologetic Apologia

Those horrible evil Jews, “Hitler was right.”. Everything that came before this sentence is an unfortunate reality that has no infiltrated Western Minds. I would say depending on what side but it seems as if both sides of this conflict here in the West are saying generally the same thing. Which is Jews bad, Jews evil. In quotations is what I have been seeing in recent years and not only the far right circles but also in those peace-loving tolerant left leaning circles. Seems as if everyone has come down with the case of Its-da-jews-itis. A severe sickness of the Mind where apparently the Jews are at fault no matter the clear evidence that shows otherwise. So I will be talking about the response to Oct 7th.

The Genocide

This was not a Genocide.
Even if we’re talking strictly in a legalistic sense, it STILL doesn’t meet the requirements for the labeling of genocide.
According to the UN Convention: “acts with specific intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national/ethnic/religious group as such.”

There is NO evidence of Israeli policy for extermination or group destruction Holocaust. Goals stated as dismantling Hamas’s military/ governing capacity after Oct 7.

Many legal experts reject the label of genocide because the high casualties stem from urban combat realities + Hamas tactics, not genocidal intent.

That alone can be enough but I have more. Israel’s operations delt with situations and no other military has faced similar constraints.


Other very important factors contributed to the casualty numbers are high.

The first obviously being the high birth rate among muslims in that area. It is encouraged to grow in numbers. Another very important factor is the a majority of the casualties were not average citizens just living their lives. A majority of that population supported Hamas and encouraged more blood shed. One cannot forget the crowd of hundreds celebrating as the hamas soldiers brought back dead bodies in the back of trucks , parading them through the streets , as they all took turns beating and spitting on the bodies.

The Murder Dance
Also, the story of the Hama soldier Mahmoud Afana from the Nukhba forces, Hamas’s elite unit, who called his parents on the night of the october attack.

Using the phone of a dead Israeli woman and her husband he said “Dad, I’m talking to you from a Jewish woman’s phone. I killed her and her husband.” “I killed 10 with my own hands! Look how many I killed with my own hands! Your son killed Jews!”. Telling them to open WhatsApp to look at the photos of the dead he and his group killed and celebratory cries from the mother and father.

We Love Death As You Love Life
Also, adding to that, the story of the communication between that the IDF officer and the muslim family in Rafah. With the IDF Officer warning the father Abu Younes (as Isreal does consistently before every strike) to leave the building because of reports of Hamas being in that complex and an attack being planned on it. Saying “We must do everything within our means to prevent any fatalities,” and reminding him of responsibility for the children’s lives.  And the Aby refusing saying
“We want to die and our children also must die.”, “If the children need to die, then they’ll die.”. And Abu saying something similar to what Khalid bin al-Walid said to Vahan before the battle of Yarmuk in 636. “We love death as you love life.”

Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, 2025 show Hamas support at 35–41% overall and higher in Gaza at 41%, West Bank lower. 50–53% viewed the Oct 7 attack as “correct/justified” and rising. A majority oppose Hamas disarmament.

We Need Innocent Deaths
Also adding to that the Hamas Bureau Chairman, Ismail Haniyeh, on yet, another broadcast for all to see saying “ as I said, and I repeat every time the blood of the children, women and elderly I do not say that it shouts out to you, but rather, we need this blood so that it will ignite within us the spirit of revolution, so that it will arouse within us persistence, so that it will arouse within us defiance and advance.

Also Hamas locating their bases of operation in public buildings, schools, hospital, where the average person lives. Hamas has long used tunnels under hospitals/schools, rocket launches from residential zones, command centers in homes/mosques, and fighters blending into civilian populations. These people include the Muslim majority in that region that voted Hamas into power.
All these things and more are key factors in why the deaths were so high in such a short period of time.

The Starvation Reports
After the Oct,7 attack Israel implemented restrictions on Gaza in the hopes that the civilians would rise up against Hamas, who they voted into power in 2006, effectively forcing the Hamas to return the hosteges. These restrictions included border closures,”arbitrary” delays and inspections on aid, cuts to utilities, and “attacks” affecting relief.

The ICC, UN agencies, and NGO, said that restrictions, delays, inspections, route limitations, and periodic near-total blocks, created severe shortages, especially early on and during intensified operations. They claim this led to malnutrition, dehydration deaths, including children, and famine warnings from bodies like the IPC, WFP, and others.

the ICC disregarded evidence that showed not only Israels efforts to send AID, but also showed evidence ( including videos, intelligence intercepts, Gazan complaints) that Hamas systematically seized, taxed, hoarded, or sold aid for fighters and or black markets.  Sometimes 15-25% or more of the AID sent by Irael in certain periods.

UN data revised some early famine warnings, and critics note the Prosecutor (Karim Ahmad Khan, an Ahmadi an off shoot Muslim group) allegedly downplayed Hamas’s role/diversion while relying on contested humanitarian reports.

The contested humanitarian reports on Gaza’s food insecurity, malnutrition, and famine, relied heavily on data from the Hamas run Gaza Ministry of Health (MoH) and affiliated local partners. This included secondary sources, including “key” informants and local organizations. The same Hamas who is lead by officials and spokesmen who openly disregard the Gazan population. The Gaza Ministry of Health was the primary source for overall casualty figures, malnutrition deaths, and hospital data in Gaza. Early malnutrition death counts, including the dozens of children in early 2024 reports, came almost exclusively from  Gaza Ministry of Health hospitals. While Malnutrition was severe in parts of Gaza at times, with tragic child deaths confirmed independently in some cases, the evidence provided by Israel including their carful efforts in the situation is almost overwhelming in favor of Israel. It doesnt make sense that Isreal is or was purpously starving the population. Also with Hamas shown to steal resources from the civilians, the tunneling under civilian areas, hiding and operating in civilian areas, on top of Ismail Haniyeh saying things like ” we need this blood so that it will ignite within us the spirit of revolution”. As well as other Hamas spokesmen and officials claiming they don’t care about the civilians. What, I ask, WHAT should have been done? A very important point often ignored is that realistically Urban Warfare against an enemy that purposely maximizes civilian deaths is the problem. You top that with a civilian population that is majority Pro Hamas that has been seen in the masses cheering in the streets while Hamas soldiers bring dead Israeli bodies in the back of trucks as trophies. Parading them through streets as the population spits and hits the sometimes dead sometimes alive bodies of Israelis. The civilian population itself adds to their own demise a majority of the civilians Embrace death as a part of Islam. As Khalid Ibn Al- Walid said to General Vahan before the Battle of Yarmok in the year 635  ” and you will face men who love death as you love life” later turned into “We love death as you love life” by Ismail Haniyeh, is not a phrase lost on Gazans ( and Muslims) when speaking about the Jews. Immediately after Oct 7, 2023, support for Hamas and the attack was high, often 60-70%+ in across territories.




The Warnings
Israel issued thousands of individualized warnings including phone calls, texts, leaflets dropped from planes, a non lethal munition or flare called “roof-knocking” that wouldshake the entirebuilding, public announcements over speaker and TVs, and map routes for evacuation.

The millions of text messages would say “To the residents of (What ever area). In the coming hours, the Israel Defense Forces will conduct a strong attack in your area to destroy Hamas terrorist infrastructure. Evacuate immediately to the humanitarian zone/south.” or “Urgent warning! Highest level. Leave the area now for your safety.”. As well as evacuation roots.

The leaflets they would drop sometimes included pictures of hamas soldiers and Hamas leaders or hostages, with words like “Hamas is using you as human shields. Leave now.” and “Warning: Anyone remaining in the combat zones endangers themselves and their families.”.
No military in modern history has gone to such lengths in a comparable high-intensity, dense-urban environment against an enemy. Urban warfare experts like John Spencer said “more measures to prevent civilian casualties than any other military in history”, describing  Gaza as one of the hardest battlefields in modern history.

All of this because Hamas operated deliberately in highly populated areas. Hamas is not new to these deceitful tactics of using their civilians. Yasser Arafat in the 60s and 70s worked with the KGB to spin a narrative of “the Palestinian people”, in order to gain western eyes and sympathy to the peoplein the region. I have more writings with details. But never the less it worked and thousands of you people here in your western bubble of ignorance to the outside world, fell for it. And history , will remember the thousands of you who protested for Hamas and the palestinian delusion. Absolute ignorance is your lasting legacy.
