      I’m not siding with Hamas here. I’m pointing out an overlooked part of all this. Isreal keeps 2 million people, half of them children, in an open-air prison, bombs them constantly, murders their kids for minor transgressions and then (shocked Pikachu face) an extremist element breeds there. They then use that extremist element as propaganda for further bombings and land theft.

      This is not a time to say “both sides bad” and move on. There is a cycle of violence here between two sides, but only one side here has the power to end that violence and it sure as hell isn’t the side being subjected to an Apartheid state.

          Yeah bro let’s just flatten Gaza…again. And then nuke Tel Aviv. Justice.

          Did you read anything I wrote lol? The Palestinians have already been being punished for decades, yet the violence continues.

              If you want to sit on the fence and feel morally superior while atrocities continue to happen, that’s your prerogative.

                  NEITHER is the victim

                  You clearly have no education on this subject. Go read about some of what the Isrealis have put the Palestinians though, and the massive power imbalance between them. I outlined some of that above, but you are being willfully ignorant.

                    So you HAVE chosen a side. And remember, again…. You’re debating who kills more children, and have chosen a side in this argument.

                    Normal people with a properly aligned moral compass would agree they’re BOTH horrendous animals.

                    I’m not arguing this with you any more.
