| Hamas disagree. They explicitly want to wipe out Israeli Jews. There is no "sanewashing" them, they are actually as bad as it's possible to be. And they're not the outliers - frankly it's the opposite, the activists who support Israel but want it to be more inclusive and less violent are ... |

And pure projection; Zionism is a genocidal ideology, predicated on the displacement and murder of indigenous Palestinian peoples (that is to say, Palestinian Arabs).
