What they are supposed to do? To just do nothing and let terrorists grow stronger and do what they want?

> Israel's retaliation is war crimes, terrorism.

You're wrong but if you repeat it a thousand times maybe it will become truth. A war crime is using civilians as human shield. Terrorism is indiscriminately launching rockets at civilians areas, of which ~30% hits Gaza. Terrorism is killing civilians purposefully in barbaric ways to send a message and incite fear. Hamas and Iran are the architects of what is happening today in Gaza.

I don't support Hamas. They're terrorists as well. But there is no good/bad side here. Don't use one side being bad to excuse the atrocities done by the other side. It's sickening how you and others excuse the killings of thousand of innocent children just because those bombs might also kill a few from Hamas.

All you wrote about war crimes is exactly what Isreal does as well. If you can't see that, you should think hard about what propaganda you're listening to.

But maybe it's a coping mechanism? Because acknowledging the truth about the amount of innocents being killed would be unpleasant?

You attempted to create a false symmetry while appealing to emotion. And didn't answer my questions.

> you should think hard about what propaganda you're listening to.

I listen to both. It's just that Israel at least say some truth (that can be independently verified) while Hamas only lies and play victim.

> But maybe it's a coping mechanism?

I'm far from these events. Maybe you are the one coping and avoid unpleasant facts.

[matsemann]

You're the one trying to create a false symmetry, by saying one either has to support Hamas or Israel. But no, I don't. One can condemn both. What I support is the innocent civilians and kids.

There is no way to support Israels bombings, killings thousands of innocent children, no matter how it's framed. If you do, you might as well spell it straight out instead of hiding behind weak arguments: you support the killing of children.
