That is some sick Hamas shit you are justifying. Holy cow.
A lot of countries have lost land in wars. They never did the sick shit Hamas did.
Russia stole Ukraine's land and wealth, but Ukraine never stabbed Russian babies in their cribs. Nor did they parade a raped Russian teen's body through their streets, to cheering throngs.
There is absolutely no justification for Hamas' murderous depravity. I can't believe you said that.

Right. Starting a war by invading, killing and raping hundreds of teens at a music festival is no comparison.

If I were to post pictures of actual dead babies - around 1,000 of them - would you think that was atrocity propaganda?
