NO it isn't. Its the truth. The moment you think that justice can be had by slaughtering innocents you are buying into terrorism. It didn't work out for bin Laden in the end, and it won't work out for Hamas.

You reacted to me but you didn't listen to me.

Both "sides" have employed justice by "slaughtering innocents" in response to the other side. Both sides think what the other side did was reprehensible and deserving of retaliation. This pattern has been going on for 75 years. It clearly hasn't worked, so maybe we should try something different?

Like this hasn't happened before in history. Jallianwala Bagh Massacre. Yet the Indians did not contemplate killing British infants in their cribs and calling it justified.
