In reply to the discussion: In West Bank, Israel revives home demolitions [View all]BillZBubb
(10,650 posts)81. And the Israelis wonder how Hamas keeps getting more and more support.
Every brutal, illegal, and immoral action like this that the Israelis take creates more Palestinians who will want to destroy Israel.
Of course that is precisely the goal of the Israeli right. That allows them to get the Jews worldwide to support more brutal, illegal, and immoral acts. The end game being the gradual ethnic cleansing of all the parts of the West Bank the Israelis want to annex.
The Jews were once the bastions of morality, fairness, and decency. No more.

The rockets had exactly one casualty. Therefo the appropriate response is one casualty in Gaza n/t

The odds would be pretty much in my favor, as there are virtually no civilian casualties from them

The Israelis who carried out the revenge attack will be arrested, tried, and imprisoned.
