    Netanyahu was elected despite Israel expanding so I guess the majority of citizens were fine with taking palestinian lands. If you’re fine with stealing something you’re fine with taking the risk that it will be fought for. They thought they could do it without risking their lives and then fucked around and found out.

      And Hamas was also elected, and if you spend any time on Arabic social media, you’ll see this being applauded everywhere.

      Is it that hard to think at even a slightly higher level? If you think these attacks were justified because of prior violence, then you also think that Israel is now justified at a brutal response, which will further radicalize all sides and make peace even more impossible than it already is. I mean, do you want Gaza to become a flattened field of rubble? Because that’s the road that you’re talking about going down.
