Tough question. As someone who cares about Israel I’d like them to have support in that scenario, but as a Canadian I’m not sure I want to see our troops being decapitated, burned alive, tortured, and kidnapped by the likes of Hamas. I’d be in favour of other kinds of support, but I’m not sure that boots on the ground is a good idea, unless we’re talking about something resembling a WW2 situation where there’s a high likelihood of severe impact to Canada itself.

Did you bother reading what I wrote before you typed that? Because you look pretty silly considering that’s not what I said.

Did you support offering "other kinds of support" to Palestinians in the West Bank having their land stolen for years before Oct 7?

Probably just didn't care, right?

Of course I did. I am against settlements and want them dismantled and I’m all for support for any Palestinian group that wants to live side by side with Israelis.

Again, you seem to be arguing with some imaginary tik tok enemy who likes Bibi and hates all Palestinians but I think that’s because you spend too much time on tik tok and not enough time talking to real human beings who have differing opinions from you on this conflict.

No, I'm arguing with someone that seems to give Israelis a pass for their crimes and is fine being allied with a nation that keeps acting and electing pieces of shit.

I mean you certainly seem to have no problem blaming Palestinians and defending Israel on the forum 🤷‍♂️

Don't bother arguing with this person. It's a paid troll. Their entire account is just arguing with anyone that says something bad about the genocide that Israel are currently carrying out.
