Is Sam Harris becoming a pariah for the anti-religious cause?

Genocide is the answer? You're fucking disgusting.

Yeah, I'd like to echo this. This mentality is why so many countries are being torn apart by war in the first place. In my mind, Israel has responded with completely disproportionate force. I'm not saying they shouldn't defend themselves, but how anyone can look at the death tolls and not think they're disproportionate is beyond me. Yes, Hamas is prodding the bigger kid, but this analogy doesn't really hold up when you consider that Hamas is using innocents as shields. IMHO Israel has the responsibility to not target fucking UN schools and massacre over a 1000 people. Frankly the attitude of 'kill them all' is abhorrent. This is like if you had a hostage situation with say, a hundred innocent people in a room, with terrorists holding guns to their heads. Terrorists inside the room are shooting at the cops who've set up outside. Because the cops have failed to negotiate they simply decide to carpet bomb the entire building. "These terrorists are picking a fight with a stronger bully, fuck 'em, let's just kill all the innocent people along with the terrorists". Basically the same logic, and frankly I think this is absurd.

Did you cry salty tears when Imperial Japan refused to surrender until two of their cities were obliterated in a second?

Did you blame the big bully United States for demanding the Imperial Japanese government surrender unconditionally or face utter destruction?

Please, tell us your moral high ground...

This is exactly the solution you're advocating. Japan bombs Pearl Harbour, fuck this shit, let's nuke them.

You would of thought the world would have learned by now.

I'm not trying to downplay Hamas putting Palastinians in the crossfire, but the cry of genocide is pure melodrama.

Genocide, perhaps not, but they are disproportionately massacring innocent children.
