"If aboriginals were to say all white men settling in Australia were to go or die, would that be racism? No. .... Are you deliberately trying to confuse these two issues, I wonder"

I do find the issue confusing. Nonetheless, Hamas, which you claim is outrightly not racist, behaves in much the way the rest of the middle eastern arab countries have treated jewish people, which in my opinion is racist. They've run them out of practically every town and country, as Hamas wants to do with Jews now living in Israel. Smells, a bit like racism, doesn't it?

"One is fighting the occupier in a land "

Not a imperialist occupier, however, but a people persecuted with historical ties to the region, who scrabbled together a home. F*ck em, push 'em into the sea, as the rest of the Arab world has already said and as Hamas now says. Sounds racist. It's too late to be intransigent and does nothing for peace. If you agree with Hamas that there can't be any solution but only death for jews. Then, truly, you can't complain about how Israelis view them and treat them. It's, naturally, going to be tough and not nice. And so, in the face of a group that will kill you no matter what you do to be accomodating, save from leaving the region, you talk as if you would do something differently. Tell me, what would that be?
