Israel has the right to defend itself.
If the mayor of Toronto and a squad of Toronto police officers break into your home and kill your family members, you don't get to nuke downtown Toronto and kill tens of thousands in retaliation. There's no justification.
If Canada attacked the US , then yes we’d invade and occupy it until regime change was completed . Also it would not be ethnic cleansing for us to warn civilians in cities to leave before we invaded it because doing so would save lives.
This is party of the ridiculous standards the left puts on Israel :
- If Israel warns civilians in a particular city to leave before they attack - The left yells how Israel is committing ethnic cleansing
- If Israel does not warn civilians to leave - The left accuses Israel of intentionally killing civilians and committing genocide
The obvious difference here, setting aside the fact that Israel is simply not going far enough to ensure that Palestinian civilians in Gaza are not harmed, is that the United States is not currently occupying and actively colonizing the rest of Canada. People are reasonably suspicious of Israel because it has demonstrated and continues to demonstrate that it would like to annex large fractions of Palestinian land.
