    Palestinian conflict is very simple: an army vs civilians. Only gonna end when all the latter are dead.

    Should we ever try to sanction that army? Never! Should we try sanctioning US for killing million iraqis who had not a WMD? No! Should we sanction Nato for bombing the wealthiest african estate libya to it’s ruin? Ah wait, WE are Nato. Can’t shoot own ankle.

      Seems like both armies versus civilians.

      There’s not many other conflicts where I can remark “two war crimes don’t make a right” damn near every time.

        Hamas is a militia. They don’t have an airforce and whatever else is required to be a military.

        I’d urge you to compare the casualties caused by each of the “armies”. Hamas is not even a fraction of the concern that Israel is.

          It’s so much better that it’s a militia shooting at civilians instead of military

            Please do not put words in my mouth that I did not say, I will not entertain that. I am happy to respond to any arguments you make or answer any questions otherwise.
