    I’m sorry, is this supposed to make us OK with Israel bombing hospitals because a rapist might be hiding there?

    Israel has been doing this shit for decades, and while this story is still horrific, it’s clearly designed for the reader to justify the violence against Hamas.

    Neither side is without blood on their hands, but the scope is drastically different.

      I don’t understand why folks think that posting articles that document one side’s atrocities is implicitly advocating for or justifying the other side. That is just the scope of the article and we need accuracy to make sense of all the shit going on.

      No. Please master basic literacy. Learning about evil things Hamas has done has no relation to trying to justify things Israel has done.
