In reply to the discussion: Palestinian attacks kill American tourist, wound 12 Israelis [View all]sulphurdunn
(6,891 posts)79. I'm sure you felt the same sense
of moral outrage when the IDF leveled whole neighborhoods in Gaza in 2014 and indiscriminately destroyed schools, hospitals and homes. In the process they killed at least 2200 Palestinians, 70% of whom were non-combatants and several hundred of whom were children. If that kind of behavior is permissible so Israel can defend itself, then how is it terrorism for Palestinians to strike back within Israel when an Israeli army of occupation makes their lives miserable and religious zealots steal their land?
