Over 100 Israelis have died and more than 900 were injured after rockets were fired from Gaza by Hamas militants, Israeli officials said Saturday.
The Palestinian Health Ministry said 198 were killed in Gaza and at least 1,610 were injured Saturday in retaliatory attacks from Israel.
“We are at war. We will win,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday.
The Israeli Defense Forces earlier declared “a state of alert for war,” according to a statement issued by the IDF.
“Over the past hour, the Hamas terrorist organization launched massive barrages of rockets from Gaza into Israel, and its terrorist operatives have infiltrated into Israel in a number of different locations in the south,” the IDF said early Saturday.
Your native american comment is a bit out of left field and a weird comparison. The Americans exterminated the native population with little resistance. It’s not like there was a resistance group similar to Hamas that sought reprisals for murder of native Americans. In Canada there was less bloodletting but there was subjugation.
The main difference contemporaneously is that indigenous people in North America are reclaiming lost territory and rights through treaties. There is currently no systemic attempt to exterminate them.
There absolutely were resistance groups all the way up to 1960 boss, they just got called terrorists at that point. Less bloodletting? The native school system in Canada has hundreds of thousands of deaths on it’s hands and mass graves get discovered like legit every year.
There absolutely is a systemic attempt to exterminate native populations in the United States, go to a reservation and you’ll change your tune real real fuckin fast.

Educate yourself.
This one is a particularly gripping episode in history: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nez_Perce_War
I’m educated.
Comparing Israel Palestine to the eradication of indigenous people in North America is way off base.
Sure, but not for the reason you gave.
