The way for Israel to fight is with “conspicuous kindness,” the tech billionaire has said.
If you kill somebody’s child in Gaza, you’ve made at least a few Hamas members who will die just to kill Israelis,” Musk said on the Lex Fridman podcast on Thursday.
The Tesla, SpaceX and X (formerly Twitter) head argued that the goal of the Palestinian militant group was to “provoke an overreaction” by Israel by committing atrocities and then “leverage that aggressive response to rally Muslims worldwide for the cause of Gaza and Palestine, which they have succeeded in doing.”
“This is one of the most contentious subjects one could possibly discuss, but I think if the ultimate goal is some sort of long-term peace, one has to look at this from the standpoint of, over time, are there more or fewer terrorists being created?” Musk said.

its horrible that something like that is even happening

I think it's despicable how Israel is killing innocent people in Gaza, mainly the children. It is confirmed that Israel has wiped out over 40 bloodline generations in Palestine. It's also heartbreaking to see the unfortunate situation of the injured and deceased people in Gaza. The atrocities Israel is commiting in Gaza should be talked about not only in politics but also at schools to raise awareness. The people of high political should vote Cease-fire against the Palestinian Genocide and support aids to Palestine, instead of Israel. I don't hate Israel or the Jewish people. But by all means, I do not support what they're doing to Palestine. People are blind to the truth that Israel had started doing this since the late 1947.

It is terrible, children should not be killed at all.
@9GX5NRR10mos10MO

@9GX34QB10mos10MO
I think Israel and Gaza are both doing very terrible things that need to be stopped.

War is a way for governments to make money.

Musk is partly right, but terrorism needs to be destroyed.
