oh this thread is nice ^^ I like a good debate. Do note that I am fairly disgusted with both sides, but its not like I do not understand them.
Hamas: Gaza HAS been a prison, (some say a concentration camp) for a long time. The people there are trapped, havent had enough food, water, or medical help for a very long time. If someone was killing off your people, would you not try to strike back?
striking back at civies is a bad choice tho.
Also I find the Israeli way of waging war in Gaza grusome. The standard practice of using the civiliens of Gaza as human shields are in so bad taste that it is hard to justify.
And then there are the "accidental" bombings which is getting really out of hand, hospitals, schools and food supplys... whose are valid targets now? Those are not targets to fight hamas, those are targets to kill off anyone.
Its not hard bieng Israel, practically sorrounded by enemies, who want them dead.
That said Hamas, should never have invited the Israely forces to do these kind of things in the first place, sending rockets into Israel is ofcourse going to bring retaliation, and Hamas is generally not a group I would put any faith on.
I do feel like alot of israili people do, that the extreme right wing of thier goverment should be banned, or erased completely.
Also Gaza turning into a prison camp is not enterily Israels fault, Egypt has effectively closed down thier boarder for a long time.
I am very shocked that the Israeli people would do any of this considering thier history.
Just goes to show, that all people can turn into monsters when the need arises
