Then sanction Israel, they are operating free of consequences while we all watch genocide take place. At this point supplying weapons to them or Hamas is a coin flip. They will both use them to conduct atrocities.

Ffs. We should stop supplying Israel with weapons and all other aid until they change their approach to battling hamas. Hamas should be exterminated, no doubt. But not at the cost of so many civilians. I get that there will be collateral damage, it’s unavoidable. But Israel is imposing collective punishment on a bunch of non-combatants. There is no regard for civilians at all.
At the same time, the US should greatly ramp up clandestine efforts to fuck Iran’s government as thoroughly as possible.
