      How many Palestinians did the IDF kill in an average year before October?

        I’ll look up any data you want, if you’ll acknowledge that without the Iron Dome, casualty comparisons would be wildly different.

        I have severe issues with some of Israel’s past actions. The invasion of Gaza in the teens was an incredibly poor choice. Hamas has bombed Israel 7,000+ times in the last 2 weeks, Israel just has top tier defenses against rocket attacks

        That doesn’t make what they’re doing now wrong, or give Hamas a leg to stand on.

        I wonder what the US would do if the Mexican government launched 7,000 missiles at us.

          Why are you still talking about the last two weeks when the entire point of this discussion was about what happened before October? Just say that you only discovered this issue two weeks ago if that is the case, which is getting to be pretty obvious if we are being honest here.

          You want me to acknowledge that more missiles would have hit Israel in the last two weeks if Israel didn’t shoot down those missiles? Yeah, no shit. Do you think that proves a point? Israel has very little to fear from Gaza, we already knew that.

            I think your mind is made up based on bad information, and that 99% of how much you care is for clout, hoenstly

              Is it really hard for you to believe that people genuinely don’t think that just randomly murdering thousands of people is bad? That says a lot more about you than it does about me.

                  Lets just pretend for a moment that Israel has NOT spent the last 50 years murdering random Arabs all over their country. Lets say that tomorrow members of the IDF just lines up a bunch of Palestinian kids against a wall and shot them. Would that be wrong?

                    That’s reality so sure.
