  • The two are not in equal positions when it comes to keeping “cool heads”. Pretty hard to keep cool when you’ve grown up being shot at and starved and driven from your home. It’s easy to sit in a safe place and condemn someone else’s reaction to having their home conquered and their people slaughtered, but it’s another thing entirely to actually go through it.

    Of course, targeting civilians and committing war crimes is bad. No contest. But people are going to fight like cornered animals when you try to genocide them. Let’s not pretend like Hamas came out of nowhere.

    People are a product of their environment, and people who grow up while being exterminated become radical and violent. The way to stop that from happening is not to keep dropping bombs and blocking humanitarian aid and sniping children.
