Was I vile when I nearly cried as I watched a young, barely teen, Palestinian girl pulled from the rubble of her home after it was bombed?
That is worthy of sympathy, what's vile is then saying this justifies mediaeval brutality against civilians. There's a difference between collateral damage and intentionally murdering civilians. Israel goes to great lengths to minimize collateral damage, often giving targets of their strikes advanced warning. If Israel behaved like Hamas, if they went by the same playbook and sought to maximize civilian deaths, there would be no Palestine. The behaviors of these actors are not morally equivalent.
I stand with Palestine! Not Hamas. Palestine!
Palestinians of Gaza elected Hamas, they are the representatives that they chose to represent them. Don't pretend this is an unrelated entity. These attacks were not orchestrated by some clandestine civilians, it was the genocidal government they chose behaving the way they said they would.
