    Terrorists come kill your family. You call the police, and someone replies “there’s been enough violence.” Meanwhile the terrorists continue to advocate for killing your extended family as well as numerous other families, and you know these threats are credible because they continue trying

    How sensible is that, to you?

      So this is definitely justifying:

      • expelling 1.5Mln from their homes
      • carpet bombing residential neighbourhoods
      • restricting the access to clean drinking water, electricity, food and fuel for the general population
      • preventing people fleeing the war zone
      • Blocking humanitarian aid to enter
      • bombing areas that they told the civilian population is safe
      • preventing humanitarian aid to enter the enclave
      • Cutting the access to the internet and telephone, so people are not even able to call an ambulance or check how their loved ones are fairing.
      • While actively refusing to admit that with their actions they have caused a humanitarian catastrophe, despite what UN, Red Crescent and I don’t know how many more international agencies are saying.
      • Refusing to even call for a humanitarian pause to let some needed aid enter the enclave

      while killing 10 times more civilians, babies, kids and women and causing immensely more suffering for the innocents.

      You can’t be a genius to see that one evil doesn’t give you the right or the moral high ground to commit even greater evil.

        It’s less the factual nature and more the presentation and what is implied.

            Trying to diminish multiple massacres with a story about friendly fire, as if those things are at all the same.

            You’re a bad person and I’m glad I’ll never see you again
