(102,491 posts)but we have not tried to wipe out an entire people--nor did we exact retribution after winning both the European and Pacific fronts of WWII. Read the Marshall plan if you don't understand my point.
And I am done arguing this. You know what Netanyahu is doing is wrong and has gone far beyond any targeted conduct of the war against HAMAS into a never-ending atrocity-filled indiscriminate war on civilians--so as to prevent his loss of office in ultimate elections and facing the juridical repercussions of his corruption. Yes, you damned well do.
Defend Netanyahu's acts all you want. It is HE who ignored the warnings of his own female IDF security officers' identification of the HAMAS plan a year before; It is he who did nothing while Israelis were under attack for hours. It is HE who has been approving the Qataris' funding and enabling of HAMAS. I support the Israelis and their ultimate ability to hold elections to rid themselves of this corrupt poseur.
