Unfortunately no winners here, as is with most wars.

You probably should.

Whether you agree or not, it's always a good idea to hear both sides, otherwise there's a good chance you'll end up in an echo chamber.

If their story is fabricated it'll fall apart very quickly.

Not that I know of, but it's 5am there, so maybe later on.

Property lines the same international community admits and admonishes Israel for violating and the very same that have says time and time again gazan occupation is a crime by international law

Justifying - I was referring to this (on a side note - Israel isn't occupying Gaza for nearly 20 years now).

Ok, so if understand you correctly, you're saying that due to the disproportionality between Israel and Hamas military capabilities, the regional Islamist extremists are joining in to balance the playing field?

Maybe. Personally I don't think so. I don't think any of these organisation really cares about the Palestinians, but they do see an opportunity.

I reckon they think that the world and Israel is so busy with Gaza that they can get away with it, similar to what Putin is now doing in Ukraine.

It almost sounds like you're justifying Hamas's actions.

I fully understand the context, I'm just not sure I understand what it has to do with a post I wrote about the potential escalation to a regional war.

As tragic as it is, not everything is about the suffering of the Palestinians.

That's a hugely inaccurate analogy. This is an armed conflict. People are dying and this child rampaged through the aged man's internationally recognised property lines and committed the most horrendous atrocities the world has seen in 60 years.

But, again, I'm not sure I understand what this has to do with what I originally said.
