    Leadership of my country has been calling for a ceasefire and reduction of violence since the beginning. Great to see that we’re lumped in with the Americans regardless.

        It is possible to condemn both this attack and the embassy strike, just as it is possible to find the October 7 attack an appalling act of barbarism without wanting kids killed in retaliation

          Yes. Yes it is. It’s just wildly unpopular to be empathetic without a side of hatred these days.

          Thank you for being a caring and moderate tempered person.

          No man… if a kid is getting bullied and beat up by another kid and he snaps and fights back why would you be mad at him for defending himself?

              No it’s only okay when israel does it. When Hamas does the same thing is when we discover morality.

              Also a reminder that israel has on average killed more Palestinian kids every single day since Oct7 than Hamas did on Oct7 in total.

                  That’s really cool if there were more people saying that would not even exist. Because the only reason they exist is in response to israel killing children.

                  Sadly we all decided to collectively ignored israel killing kids for 75 years so it starts feeling a little hollow when we criticize others for doing it.

                  Luckily Hamas only had a 3% child casualty rate on oct7 because they took care to avoid killing children (this is even including israeli friendly fire).

                  Compared to israels horrible Genocidal 40% child casualty rate in Gaza with worlds most advanced weapons it’s really weird that people keep painting Hamas as child killers.

                    No. We haven’t. That’s the point. But there’s a limit to what a small country can achieve from the other side of Europe. The Irish are the prime example they’ve always stood up for Palestine it just doesn’t make enough of a difference. They don’t deserve to be lumped in with the Americans just because they aren’t powerful.
