War tends to bring out the worst in people.
Pretty sure that the IDF has no plans to nuke Gaza, though.
Which would be the only way to do that.
You need to get more of a grip on actual reality rather than just screaming "Israel BAD!!!!!!".
Like, constantly?

Any comment let alone condemnation about Hamas vows as posted above?

No. Just your opinion as to how you might have a peace with Hamas when they rule it out?

You have repeatedly stated that your only concern is for Israel to stop all the indiscriminate killing.
However, in this one phrase. "....where one enslaved nation, the Palestinians, are 'represented' by Hamas on one side (the other half is not) and the Masters (Israel) is represented by some lunatics...." you are quite clearly showing a pre-determined bias and a belief that the Palestinian people are somehow an enslaved people ruled over by lunatic Israeli's.
So that would suggest to me that you had at least sympathy, possibly even outright support, for the Palestinian cause prior to the recent Hamas acts of terrorism that sparked this recent outbreak of conflict.

You do know that Israel has been a long time proponent of a Two State Solution don't you?
They signed an agreement with the PLO in the 90's but as soon as Hamas came into power they denounced it.
A Two State Solution relies on Palestinians recognising Israel's right to exist, something Hamas point blank refuse to accept.
'From the river to the sea' means that from the River Jordan to The Mediterranean Sea should be cleared of all Jews and shall become an Islamic/Arab country - quite the opposite of a Two State Solution.
Hamas refuses to compromise on this.
As for blaming the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israeli failing to maintain the defensive wall, well, that just wreaks of desperation tactics and if anything proves that it would be impossible for the two sides to peacefully co-exist as long as Hamas are a live threat.

Who the # cares what Joe Biden says, the Two State Solution has been on the table for years.
Israel supports a Two State Solution and agreed a deal with the PLO.
Once Hamas were voted into power they immediately denounced it and categorically refuse to consider a Two State Solution as that would include recognising and accepting Israel as an independent state.
Hamas steadfastly insists on standing by its resolve and determination to bring about a Jew free Palestinian state stretching from The River Jordan to The Mediterranean Sea....and by using whatever mean necessary to bring this about.
The only reason I am repeating this at length is because I'm not sure if you think The Two State Solution is something new and groundbreaking?
It isn't, not by any imagination.
The only thing that has prevented it from being implemented is Hamas intransigence and their determination to wipe out the Israeli state.
As for the fence?
Wow.
The only people to blame were the terrorists who decided to break through it and kill innocent people for committing the crime of being Jews.
In other threads, maybe this one too, you have likened the Palestinians existence in Gaza as similar to a concentration camp.
Then you blame Israeli's for not maintaining the fence that confined Palestinians well enough.
If that's not contradictory I don't know what is.
But none of this would matter if Hamas would consider peaceful coexistence.
Biden said that looking forward there should be a two state solution, displaying this way the US Policy no matter what Hamas or Israeli Officials say.
If the fence was secured that would have never happened. Once the fence is secured Hamas can do nothing and Israel will have no excuse bombing innocent civilians.
The fence wasn't created because of Hamas.

The fence was pretty secure. Just not against bulldozers and explosives.
And yes, you do blame Israel for October 7th.
Iam not blaming Israelis for what Hamas did on the 7th of October. I am blaming Israeli Security Officials for their inability and incompetence to secure their border that has never been penetrated this way before as far as I know.

"I lost count how many times I have been repeating my random arguments ."
There. Fixed for you.
You have refuted nothing.
Repeated, yes.
