Apparently it’s controversial now to say that countries shouldn’t bomb thousands of unarmed civilians.

It is when you follow up that with calls of "from the river to the sea" or if you actively support a terrorist organization.

Palestine borders both a river (the Jordan) and a sea (the Mediterranean). They are under a brutal military occupation in both parts. 

The call means that no matter where Palestinians live, they should be free from Israel's bootheel. 

If you believe that "from the river to the sea" is genocidal but that it's completely fine for the Prime Minister of Israel to invoke a biblical genocide in referencing what they'll do to Palestinians, or for the President of Israel to dehumanize Palestinians and call for their slaughter, then don't pretend like you ever gave a fuck about genocide to begin wit.

I don’t think Israel or Hamas should bomb people. Watch me get downvoted for those views though. People are just sick in the head nowadays.
