  1. What Hamas - a creation of Israel injected into Palestine - did was terrible. But if what they did was terror, what do you call what Israel has done to Gaza? In the American West, you had a similar ongoing conflict between ethnic groups. It, too, was very lopsided in favor of one side. What's downplayed/ignored is that the massacres and atrocities on both sides were committed by a very small number of renegades by enraged people (on both sides) lashing out in fear or retribution or both. Your focus on the latest act of terror doesn't blind me to the fact that if you want to count dead children, Israel has killed more children in the last few weeks than Russia has in a full-scale conflict in Ukraine in almost 2 years. Let's not gloss over the open-air prison the Israelis are operating or forget there is such unbridled antipathy for Israel, Europe, and the USA in the Middle East. The USA picked up right where the British left off re-drawing the map of the Middle East by force. But even the British didn't carve out an entire nation for the Jews and force hundreds of thousands, if not millions, out of their homes and off their land. The ongoing situation in Gaza is intolerable. The treatment of Palestinians is inexcusable. I get that Israel is in a non-stop battle for survival, surrounded by hostile nations. But you have to ask yourself "Why is that?" Maybe it's because the USA under the UK's guidance, made a whole country out of thin air, called it "Israel," and evicted and oppressed the locals. Under that logic, we should evict all European and African-descended Americans from America! How do you think they would react if someone came along and said "For the greater good, you must give up your home and your homeland," and used force to bring it about? You're worried about 10 hostages, but don't mention 1200 Palestinian children killed. I guess it's OK to drop bombs on people, but if their feeble-best response is to chop off a few heads and seize 10 hostages, then that's terrorism? It's terrorism if you don't have advanced military hardware and bombers? You need to see this as - as Dave Chapelle called it - asymmetric warfare. There's a war being waged on these people and it's been ongoing for a very long time. I'm not justifying hostage taking, but I see it as the consequence of way worse that's been going for a very long time. This is just ONE atrocity you can point to, and there's no denying it's an atrocity, but don't let your confirmation bias blind you to the big picture or the MANY atrocities committed by the side you happen to support.
