Absolutely. That was awful. Brutal, inhumane and a waste of Hamas resources.
Just the kind of thing we'd expect you to say.

I know....Hamas starts the sh.it and then cries and looks for sympathy, and then gets it from people like the idiots on this site.

The Jews are not a race.
It is possible to be racist against them.

It is of course religious, ethnic and cultural discrimination we’re actually talking about, but it’s generally referred to as racism.

The prisoners aren't just terrorists. They include women and children.

No. The word racist is perfectly acceptable to use. It just doesn’t mean “discrimination against race.”

The “races” were thought up by racists wanting to argue their stance: white man good, black man bad.

And hence the word came to be used.
Then came the realisation that the races don’t exist. It’s a mental construct.
So, the word racism and racist evolved to mean: “discrimination and bigotry based on ethnics, skin colour, religion, etc. ”

I don’t see what madhatter point you’re trying to defend here.
Are the Irish a race? Or the Belgians?
Yet, if an Englishman calls an Irishman stupid or a Dutch person calls a Belgian stupid, it’s racism.

Racism is a way shorter term than “discrimination based on linguistics and religion.” in both cases.

No. It’s just a wrong sentiment.

I suggest reading about it. It has a history.

However, I can definately point to various people on this site who are, by what they write, extremely racist. Be it by ethnic, cultural or religious bias. And many of them discriminate against gays and trans people as well.

Not the sort I would befriend on Facebook.

The Lebanese are not warmongering.
The Palestinians aren’t.
When did Iran ever start a war?
