Even if they were, even if each individual person in Gaza was personally responsible for 9/11, this wouldn't be allowed. The Geneva convention does not allow this treatment.
Never forgive, and never forget.
And teach your children to hate the enemy as soon as they comprehend language. Don't forget that. That part is crucial.
I think Israel is doing that just fine themselves by dropping bombs around the children and killing their families.
Well, yes. Palestinians have lived under the bootheels of the Israelis for a bit.
Israel is teaching these children hate, no one else.
Israel is clearly a bad actor here. Both sides committed war crimes and this is a generational hatred on both sides. Hatred exists on both sides too. I'm not a fan of either side because I'm not a fan of generational hatred.
At the same time, being able to hold to opinions at once, I believe that Israel has been allowed to run roughshod over the Palestinian people and that imbalance of power is injustice beyond what I personally can imagine.
That said, the US should've stopped Israel. That's bullshit. Apparently the US government can't find money for education, roads, or health care but there's no problem killing Palestinian kids.
Really lays bare the priorities. It's disgusting, appaling... Actually, no I don't have words for but it is.
Is this because they know that since the US is backing them, they're untouchable, and the US won't stop them since it's afraid of regional destabilization? Asking for a friend.
The US uses Israel for regional destabilization. A unified Arab world (proposed by Nasser, Gaddafi, among others) would be a threat to US hegemony and the petrodollar. Most importantly, this would harm the US' ability to print obscene amounts of money in a crisis with minimal effect on domestic prices.

How? I don't understand.
