You don’t need to be religious to perform evil acts the same way you don’t need to be religious to perform moral acts.
At best the Israeli government is completely incapable of distinguishing between enemy combatants and civilians/children and at worst is intentionally committing genocide.
Given all the evidence we’ve seen so far, it’s certainly the latter.
Either scenario should be enough for the UN to step in with a heavily armed and permanent peacekeeping force to hold a long lasting ceasefire and start of a many decades long process of peace negotiations, rebuilding, reparations, and war crime court hearings.
Religious people don’t have to be bad, yes. That does not magically erase the centuries of history where religion was used as an excuse to perpetrait violence.
Sure, it wouldn’t “fix” violence, but you’d have to be a complete moron to fail to understand how the world would be very, very different if it were removed.
To think the world would be no different is literally as dumb as people who argue nothing should be illegal because people do bad things anyways…
No one is saying things would be perfect. They’re only saying bad people would have one less excuse.
