    At some point the October attacks stopped being anything but an excuse.

    I remember reading about them and thinking; “damn, the response will be BAD”, and as the days turned into weeks turned into months turned into years of constant brutal systematic violence, Israel quickly lost all my sympathy they got from the attacks.

    I have held no special love for the Palestinians, nor Israel for that matter, but Israel is doing it’s best to make sure to show everyone just how little sympathy they deserve.

      I agree 100%. I actually think that Israel has lost its right to exist in its current form. Of course one might say that about the U.S. also.

        I don’t know if I would go that far, though, to be honest, we have tried a two state solution for several decades, without any real success, what about a single state solution?

        Eh, doubt it would make much of a difference to be honest…

        I don’t know, seems kinda pointless to keep fighting over some sand, yeah yeah, I know it is about for more than that, but to an outsider that is kinda what it seems like
