What a naive post. A group of armed men take your wife and children from the supermarket, ferry them across the border in zip-ties as hostages, and a "firm" stance on either side shouldn't be taken. Is that something you'd tell the gunmen spitting on your child's naked corpse in the back of a pickup truck? "Look guys, I understand this is a complicated issue, and because of the past, this war crime is justified, maybe we can shake hands and negotiate. In the meantime, can you lower my daughter's bloody corpse? We're going to wanna bury her before the rot sets in. Thanks guys—careful don't let her fall. Alright that should do it. Thoughts and prayers. Good luck."
What a naive opinion.
How much about this geopolitical conflict are you referencing? Go back a few years and it's the opposite. Then a few years back and it's opposite of that. And the pattern continues.
Anyone thinking one party is innocent in the conflict as a whole is either ignorantly or willfully blind.
Atrocities on both sides that swings back and forth. Back and forth. Back and forth.

I don't give a damn what happened last year, last decade, last century, or when your last whataboutism argument carried the full-backing of twitter. You haven't got a clue what you're trying to say, you just have a desire to be liked.

Exactly because action and reaction has no impact on human history. Keep drinking the coolaid regard

When you see evil, call it out. You don't need to do gymnastics, overthink, or try getting intellectual. There's no nuance to war crime, because war crime violates fundamental human rights. There's no justification for murdering a German family, shooting a rave of dancing kids, gunning down Thai tourists, running over American citizens, or kidnapping children because of what Israelis did at some point in the past. Complete pyrrhic victory by Hamas. and now what? What's the plan now? They had their terrorist fun, destroyed innocent lives while invoking god—"Allah Akbar"—and what now? Mohammad comes down on a cloud from Jannah? What idiots convinced them this attack would have any longterm benefit?
