    Easy for you to talk about what’s righteous or not when it’s not your land being apartheided

    They unfortunately don’t have the luxury of a fair war.

    Israel made this bed now they’re going to lay in it whether any of us like it or not and I think it’s atrocious but Israel needs to bear some blame for this.

      I’ll say this one more time. Nothing about fighting oppression requires you to rape and murder civilians. There are plenty of military bases all around Gaza if Hamas wanted to focus on military targets.

      If you think that fighting oppression requires you to rape and murder innocent people, you deserve you oppression.

        I will not say that Hamas did anything ethical, it was morally deplorable. But at the same time, unless we tackle the underlying issues of Israeli apartheid, we are begging for people in Palestine to view members of Hamas as freedom fighters as opposed to savages. Israel is creating this problem.

        The quickest way to disassemble Hamas is to give the Palestinian people justice and humanity.

        I am not morally justifying their actions, I’m saying that Israel is responsible for creating the environments in which terrorists can rise. We learned nothing from our wars in the Middle East.
