37. You knew who the snake was. Why did you get it angry, then put your baby in front of it?

Didn't care much about your baby, did you?

In case it isn't clear, by "you" I am referring to Hamas. By snake I refer to Netanyahu / Likud (not all Israel). By "baby" I mean the actually innocent Gazans (not everyone in Gaza, but the babies, surely).
By "get it angry", I really mean "give it an excuse" by targeting civilians attending a festival and killing a whole bunch of them. (Or was that just made up and didn't really happen?)

C'mon man. There are innocents in Israel and Gaza. There are a whole lot of guilty. And neither are all on one side.
