    Oh so it’s a war crime when Israel sends rockets, but like he said the very obvious murders of entire civilian families and beheading the women is totally on the same level morally and principally.

    Terrorist sympathizer.

      The difference is the last time Gaza got to vote was 17 years ago…

      The vast majority of the residents of Gaza have never had the opportunity to vote, so blaming them for Hamas makes zero fucking sense.

        I can agree with that. To a certain extent there are always civilian casualties during wartime. Not condoning it, but it is a fact of war even in the “smart” age.

        A ground invasion seems to be the only fairly retaliatory measure.

          No retaliatory measure is fair, because it’s focusing on retribution instead of reconciliation. The attack on the dance party was retaliatory, too.

          Retaliation only leads to escalation, and lots of death.

      It’s quite the leap to equate condemning the terrorist actions of Israel to condoning the terrorist actions of Hamas.

        No, didn’t you get the talking points? If you sympathize with Palestinians at all then you obviously FULLY SUPPORT Hamas! There’s no room for humanity here.

      It’s a war crime when Hamas kills civilians, but it’s also a war crime when Israel cuts off food, water, and electricity (and also bombs!) civilians.

      Not sure what the fuck is hard to understand about that, unless your only thought is “Hurr me no like communist commentator”

      The tone has been set already with this thread, Israel = bad. Doesn’t matter how many families these Hamas cunts kidnap and behead apparently

        It can be both. Hamas can be awful at the same time Israel is awful.

        Nobody is justifying the atrocities committed by one side when pointing out the atrocities committed by the other.

        The bloodshed needs to end either way.
