Naturally.
There are two main ways in which people can try to further a political position they've taken - they can either argue for the position or they can attempt to discredit those who argue against it.
If the position they're trying to further is so illogical or immoral that they can't frame any arguments in its favor, then attempting to discredit its opponents is the only thing they have left.

They could... abandon their position
Who am I kidding, though.

Huh, how about that? The pro-genocide side using terroristic tactics. Weird. /s

I drove past some asshole flying an Israeli flag outside their house. I'm in Indiana and I'm one of the only Jews in this town, so I doubt whoever did it was Jewish and I'm sorry they didn't see me giving them the finger when I drove by.

Can we fucking not?

Stopping shipments of weapons clearly isn't going to be enough. We need to start destroying their military posts
-
That is not a reasonable first step.
Biden has paused and threatened to stop weapons shipments, but those only ever included offensive weapons.
They have a defensive anti-rocket system that requires regular shipments from the US. Biden never threatened to cut those supplies off, nor has he threatened to cut off any of the other aid they receive.
Stopping all weapons shipments would change their behavior. Better thing to try instead.

He only blocked 500 and 2000 pound bombs specifically, too. They can buy all the planes, guns or smaller bombs they want for now.

I'm not so sure. The purpose of the defensive weaponry is, well, defensive. Stopping civilian deaths.
With how things are now, I think it would only make things worse. Netanyahu isn't going to pull back if the US stops giving defensive aid. And when civilians inevitably die, he'll either shrug, or use it as further justification to continue.
In essence, it won't have any effect. I think the best thing to do would be supporting Netanyahu's opposition to launch a coup, with our support conditional on them withdrawing completely from Gaza and letting Palestinians form their own state.
Either way, there won't be any progress until Netanyahu is out.

Israel is a Nazi state that needs to be disbanded.
The flood gates are open. People are not afraid anymore. Doxxing a few people was possible. Doxxing half America is not.

Pretty disgusting. More people should be made aware of these tactics because it will leave a bad taste in anyone's mouth in an age of privacy concerns and surveillance.
This is authoritarian regime dystopian stuff.

It's sad that this is a controversial position to some.

I hate how much zionists try to control the narrative like this.
They don't try, but succeed.
Just ask proud Zionist Gal Gadot what she thinks
There are very few things in my life that I would ask Gal Gadot’s thoughts on.
Then she chanted, "When people are occupied, resistance is justified" which in context is clearly in defense of October 7th, despite her denial.
Let's remember that the purpose of this protest was to stop Israel from defending themselves against their explicitly genocidal attackers via political pressure. Stopping Israel before they depose Hamas keeps Hamas in power.
Although she absolutely has the right to take controversial positions and peacefully protest, freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequence. There is no right to anonymity when publicly protesting.
Resistance take a lot more forms than what happened Oct. 7th which almost nobody is trying to justify.
Israel has murdered at least 33,000 Palestinians, over 2/3 being civilians by their own count.
Israel has passed 'defending themselves' a long time ago.
This protest is to stop killing innocent civilians.
Israel is well past the stage where it defends itself against the attack. They could very well stop their operations right this moment and no further harm would come to them for the foreseeable future. What they are doing now is a deliberate attack to cleanse Gaza of everything and everyone they consider anti-Israeli.
How long ago has the West pulled out of Afghanistan? Apparently it's long enough that people have forgotten what an utter failure the whole thing was and why. One doesn't create a lasting peace by steamrolling a place and shoot a bunch of people. Instead Israel is breeding the next generation of Hamas terrorist right now.
Yeah, all those babies and toddlers they killed were genocidal maniacs.
"In international law, the right to resist is closely related to the principle of self-determination. It is widely recognized that a right to self-determination arises in situations of colonial domination, foreign occupation, and racist regimes that deny a segment of the population political participation."
