Ah yes, the, "I destroyed your room and took your xbox over a gram of weed." parenting strategy. This has never once ever resulted in people utterly despising their parents for being overbearing tyrants...
The blame for 12000 Gaza civilians dying in response to 1000 Israelis is 100% on Israel.
After it's all said and done, is it the side that killed more civilians the correct side?
12,000 Gaza civilians... so far.
And just to add, Israel could have used this event to strengthen themselves on the world stage, to instead use covert systems to do their work (since they appear to have had been doing zero of that) instead of flattening city blocks and be internationally recognized as being under attack, worthy of those Stars they so brazenly wore, and Hamas being denounced worldwide. Instead they have become the bad guys, falling right into Hamas' hands.
That's because the goal was always genocide. The Israeli government needs Hamas to justify their genocide. They could have handled things more elegantly but if they did that then they wouldn't have gotten to murder thousands of Palestinians. They aren't falling into Hamas' hands; they are using Hamas as a tool to justify a genocide that they have been working towards for years now.
The Israeli government initially supported Hamas when they were elected because the political infighting helped them.
To say anything is 100% either side's fault tells me You're not really thinking about the situation.
Israel has the military might and the control. They're running the world's biggest open air prison.
By now, this conflict is ABSOLUTELY on Israel. Completely. Yes, they might still get attacked, but then it'd be a sovreign nation being attacked by terrorists instead of involuntary prisoners lashing out.
Israel is fully and completely responsible for those 12000+ civilian deaths in Gaza. Period.
Again, is the side that killed more civilians by the end of it the good guys?
Hamas kills Israeli civilians and you compare it to a teen having a gram of weed?? This whole comments section is detached from reality.
