    Do you consider Hamas the aggressor in the overall context of the Israel- Palestinian conflict?

          So if Native Americans fired rockets on e.g. Corpus Christi, Texas, they would have no responsibility at all for this action?

          I am not denying the responsibility of “the colonizers”, I think other people can also have some responsibility.

            They’d be justified.

            The point is to not condemn the oppressed without regard for their oppression.

              They’re not being oppressed if they choose to live the why they do. At some point the drug addict needs to come to terms with the fact they are the ones causing their self harm. They could compromise and stop their killing/ bloodshed to build a peace but they don’t. Continuously attacking is one of the most dumbass moves they keep making. I’m out of sympathy and patience for these idiots. Keep crying but do nothing. Other parts of the Arab world have moved on and made peace with Israel. The Palestinians only have excuses and children to sacrifice at this point.

              Where in this thread did someone “condemn the oppressed without regard for their oppression”?

              So just to be clear, if a Native American went up to you, told you that he was going to shoot you because your ancestors stole his land, and then murdered you, you have no qualms about this?

        Is it amoral? Yes, for sure 100%. But as a global community, we barely punish those who engage in this kind of tactic, and when we do, it’s for some kind of political theater. More Palestinian civilians will die in this conflict by a factor, if you’re going to criticize Hamas for this, I’d like to see the same standard applied to IDF.

          I’m not saying either side is innocent, but you cannot compare this to the invasion of Ukraine since Ukraine does not deliberately target Russian civilians.

            Wow. I apologize for the confusion. I absolutely do not believe these two situations are comparable. My bad.
