      If I come at you with a knife, do you have the right to defend yourself?

        You come at me with a knife, so I lob a pipe bomb at you, blowing you up along with the family right next to you having a picnic.

            Yup, warned them good… right as a threw the pipe bomb. Oh, and there’s another family by the way out who won’t let them pass.

            You’re defending killing civilians. You are no better than the goons in hammas.

              The absolute irony… You are the one defending killing civilians. That’s what Hamas does and did to Israel. What Israel does after is self-defense, and I don’t really care about playing terrorist peek-a-boo. If you don’t want to die, get out the fucking way so Israel can destroy Hamas. It’s the fastest way for the Palestinian people to have peace.

                Lol. Sure sure. You think killing civilians to get to terrorists is appropriate. Ergo, You’re also a terrorist.

                Fastest way to peace? Faster way to create more people who want to take revenge on Israelis, more like.

                But keep telling yourself that you have some moral high ground.

                Criticizing Israel’s response is in no way an endorsement of Hamas. And just to be clear it doesn’t imply having a problem with Jewish people either.

                How you can insist otherwise is baffling.

                “If you don’t want to die, leave the place where you lived for thousands of years and let us occupy it” you mean?

                I love how you ignore any nuance of geopolitics. I’d love to live in a world as black and white as yours. It’d be so simple to know “the bad guys” from “the good guys”. Hint hint, both sides in this conflict suck. Not every israeli is IDF. Not every palestinian is Hamas. You can’t tell 1 mill people to evacuate a metropolis, use in 6 days as much bombs as the US did in Afghanistan, lock out any humanitarian aid and call it “self defense”.

                After? After what? This didn’t just start. You’re totally out of your depth here dude.
