Israel committing war crimes

Israel has a right to self-defense

Did you know that both of these statements can be true at the same time?

Thats like saying "all lives matter" to the BLM folks.

Of course Israel has the right to defend itself, but the point is that 99% of their activity is offensive and they are the oppressor. that argument is double-speak.

Israel is committing a genocide and you think that's a reasonable response?

Your reply made little sense to me, I only just now understood where it comes from.

You probably think I am arguing in bad faith, just like the racists saying "all lives matter" as a dog whistle. I assure you, this is not the case. The crimes of Israel are terrible war crimes and those responsible need to be tried in an international court of human rights. The same goes for those responsible for the concert massacre.

I am saddened that people feel compelled to pick a side in this stupid an unnecessary war and then ignore, or at the very least excuse, the crimes of the side they picked.

The assholes of both the Israeli and the Hamas leaderships are complete and utter cunts. Normal people suffer because of their power politics. I hope you can see that.
