Hamas says categorically jews must go from the region or die. Is that racism? I don't know

Let's see. If aboriginals were to say all white men settling in Australia were to go or die, would that be racism? No. When native Americans were fighting European immigrants, if they were to say they should leave or die, would that be racism? No.

That is, "I was living here and then you came and mushroomed with your settlements, making it clear that the resulting country is a Jewish state. So I decided to fight you. You either leave or die" is not racism. That is what Palestinians are saying to Jews who came from around the world to settle in a place that was theirs.

Are you deliberately trying to confuse these two issues, I wonder. They are not too similar, you know. One is fighting the occupier in a land where you are pushed to the fringes and made to live under occupation, the other is a hatred to a certain skin color, culture, etc WHEREVER people of that appearance/ethnic background may be found.
