    Here’s what I can pretty much guarantee will be an unpopular observation; Israel is 100 percent committed to eliminating Hamas, for understandable reasons. They aren’t going to stop until the job is done. Therefore, if you really care about innocent Palestinian civilians getting killed, you should want to give Israel more aid since the faster they are able to destroy Hamas, the less innocent civilians get killed.

    Not sure that I agree with the morality of this proposition. It seems pretty sound, but I am still wrestling with it.

      Israel has been massacring Palestinians decades before Hamas was a thing. They’re also massacring people in the west bank where Hamas has no powers and settlers are killing people and stealing their lands.

      So, your observation is incorrect.

          It was a joint US-Israel-Britian effort, that was going fine until Israel modified it to do more which allowed it to escape the target and be found out by international security researchers. Up until that point, they thought their engineers were screwing up.
