(1,417 posts)Or what evidence is presented to you of Israel's indifference to suffering....You seem to be ignorant that Israel has killed and injured far more innocents than Hamas could dream of.
Yes Hamas is an organisation that has waged war by terrorist acts and killing civilians, but Israel too has a history of waging war by terrorizing and killing civilians albeit only collaterally.
That distinction is too fine for those suffering Israeli collateral terror....A dead child is a dead child whether killed by a Hamas crude rocker or the collateral damage of an accurate Israeli rocket.
The difference is, that Israel claims to be a liberal western democracy. No other western democracy would dream of subjecting refugees to such a bombardment.......The only instance I can think of is Grozny, but then Russia is hardly a western democracy.
