I just can’t fathom how monstrous and dumb people are who support what Israel is doing
I've known plenty of "dumb" people who weren't genocidal. It's less an indication of intelligence and more an indication of an evil soul.
Can you understand Israel's position without supporting it? I do.
Whats their position? We want your land so we are going to kill you for it?
That plus “we’re God’s chosen people” so killing civilians is A-OK.
The prime minister has an axe to grind with Palestine because his own brother was killed in an operation ~50 years ago. He's stated many times that he has no intention of any kind of peace and he's only using a tragedy to take revenge. It's no different than the u.s. going into Afghanistan after 9/11 and then using that as a foothold when they invaded Iraq under dubious circumstances. It's completely indefensible.
Ah - wonderful!
I've not heard a remotely defensible explanation for the ongoing genocidal land grab, but I do wonder what could conceivably justify it.
