      You are justifying an apartheid state, none of what you are saying is disproving the fact that Israel is one.

      The civilian population is no shield against a blockade.

      The civilian population shouldn’t have to deal with a blockade, indiscriminate bombing, apartheid or genocide.

      That’s the point. This isn’t taking care of business or self defense, it’s ethnic cleansing.

          Despite the Israeli disengagement, Gaza is still considered occupied by Israel under international law.

          Open air prison, apartheid and genocide. Go shill for netanyahu somewhere else.

              hey, they never said it was one-sided. the comments above were merely refusing to acknowledge israel as an apartheid state… it can both be true that israel is an apartheid state committing genocide, AND that hamas launched indiscriminate rockets into israel and both those things can be indefensible

    • Hamas to power in 2007 and broke all past agreements with Israel and started to launch rockets into Israel. This lead to the blockade.

      Hamas seized power after a civil war, brought on by an attempted coup by the PA backed by the US and Israel. This attempted coup led to the Hamas attacks on Israel. They did not randomly break all agreements and started shooting rockets.

      Hamas was always deeply unhappy with the Israeli presence, but they hadn’t become really openly violent before that point.

      If you started to fire your gun on my home at random hours I would have locked your door from the outside and set your home on fire with, or without, your family inside. This is common sense.

      What the fuck is this insane statement. Call the police?
