(9,479 posts)My mother was a child living in Berlin in WWII she wasn't a Nazi. But the brutal reality was that she had to bear the consequences of a war to elminate the Nazi threat. Was it "fair?" Nope. But it was necessary. 125,000 civilians died during the two week period dubbed the "Battle of Berlin." Fortunately, she wasn't one of them.
That doesn't excuse Israeli war crimes, but I've heard NOTHING from the "cease fire now" folks that would even come close to solving the problem. A permanent cease fire that keeps Hamas in power, just delays the next onslaught. If Hamas gave even a little shit about its supposed people, they would be negotiating an exit from power. Instead, they are calling for escalation. And somehow, it's STILL the fault of the Jews to some.
