True, nothing justifies Hamas's acts of genocide.

The massacres by Hamas constituted acts of genocide. The attacks were also crimes against humanity and war crimes.

Political scientists studying American politics are sometimes referred to within the discipline as "Americanists".[3][4] The field is conventionally divided into the sub-fields of political behavior and political institutions.[5] It also consists of other major sub-fields, such as American political development (APD), which do not fit neatly into either category.

NATO's response appears to be "Suck. On. This."

What if some day or night a demon were to steal after you into your loneliest loneliness, and say to you, "This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more; and there will be nothing new in it, but every pain and every joy and every thought and sigh and everything unutterably small or great in your life will have to return to you, all in the same succession and sequence" ... Would you not throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse the demon who spoke thus? Or have you once experienced a tremendous moment when you would have answered him: "You are a god and never have I heard anything more divine."[
