    Does it say anything in there about slaughtering non-combatants? Because that’s what Hamas did.

    There are going to be a lot of things you don’t like that will happen in the following days. But, the dogs of war are off the leash.

      you may be shocked to know that it’s not uncommon for both sides in a conflict to do various war crimes.

      Are you excluding all the Palestinians Israel has killed and the homes and land they stole?

      I can see how the math looks if you exclude huge pieces of the dataset

        You want a good guy/bad guy so bad. Fact is that Hamas killed babies in their crib and that’s vile and animalistic and way over the line. I simply acknowledge that fact while realiz8ng that Israel is an oppressor. I don’t Ithink in black and white terms as I realize that the world has more nuance than 5hat. In fact, I feel sorry for Palestinians. They never got their Gandhi, but rather a bunch of violent ass clowns who don’t give a shit about them.

          No, exactly the opposite. I recognize that there is no “good guy/bad guy” dichotomy. There’s only good and bad actions. Slaughtering non-combatants is a bad action regardless of who’s doing it. You can’t “justify” it for either side of the conflict, especially not by saying “the other side did it.”
