Two wrongs don't make a right.
I hope you see the irony of your comment. You do see it, right? I'm not gonna say you're wrong, because you're not. But you know what? Hurting your oppressors feels so good. And it's better to die on your feet with a gun in your bloody hands, then laying on the ground with a boot on your neck.
Israel is really in the drivers seat of this conflict though. You can imagine a reality where they had opened borders with Gaza and given them voices in the government. Where they're all these foreign funds for to build schools and libraries and pumping in tvs and video games and internet and helping keep the streets safe, and where it's much harder for a kid to say "I'm going to join a millitant groups" and where, even if Palestine is fighting it, we're moving towards peace. There's still violence from time to time, but it's declining.
You cant imagine the same story with Palestine. They have no power in the current relationship to give anything to Israel afaik. They can't build schools there even if they wanted to. So (to some extent, and acknowledging that it's horrible horrible horrible for the people involved) the lashing out isn't surprising there. It's not good, but also not surprising. The two atrocities are very very different (imo).
Yeah but pals have been offered peace and a state from the beginning. They are at war because they have declared war against the existence of Jews. They deserve to die at this point
