Comment on The lamest countries
shadowspirit@lemmy.world 5 months agoYeah, so mass rape and terrorism is OK in your book of the ends justify the means?
Reality is Israel was in talks with Saudi Arabia to normalize relations and Iran didn’t want that at all and they gave Hamas the green light to attack.
Everything that happens in that region is about Saudi Arabia and Iran.

No one said its okay. You’re very good at strawmaning me. If Hamas did commit such acts then of course there should be proper justice. However, proper justice isn’t blowing up innocent people and children. Just like you don’t blow up a school when there’s a school shooter.

We agree on that. Where we disagree is in saying Hamas didn’t start this current conflict. They certainly did. Has shit been going on here for millenia…of course. The “strawman” was to remind you of the fact this opened with mass rape and murder at a music festival – that’s a fact.
You seemed to argue that thousand years of history seemingly justifies that and I’m telling you that it does not.

My “bias” is not an argument. Everyone has their biasias. The problem is that israel continues to lie on the narrative and just in this short span of time we’ve seen their lies come out. Take the “40 beheaded babies” for example. I’m open to an independent investigator.
Also it’s very rich. You really like to dig on this issue of mass killing and rape and take issue with it but don’t take issue with israel doing the same exact thing and worse back. That is a double standard hypocrisy.
Keep strawmaning me. I never said it justifies it.
