No, but I also wouldn't fucking murder people who went to that party either.
And your morality wasn't crafted while living your entire life in an outdoor prison while Israel targets civilians, your friends, and family every fucking day of your life. They don't have to play by better rules than the enormously equipped genocidal state. Shit sucks, but Israel has very predictably brought this upon themselves and no one should flinch at all when it comes to supporting Palestine over this, or else you never really did. This is how liberation is won, this time you're just seeing the reality of war through a cell phone.
Let me just go ahead and fail that purity test for you. It took me a long time to come to a conclusion about this subject and it wasn't fully cemented until this conflict broke out. Millions of Palestinians refuse to spill blood. The Israeli state has encouraged funding HAMAS as part of their long term plan to prevent two-state solution viability. You can't build liberation on the backs of dead bystanders any more than the Nazis or the US or the Jacobins did. "But it's justified when we do it, you just don't understand" is a bullshit rationale that's older than dirt and twice as worthless; Jesus, how many times must the CIA have said that very thing to themselves over the years?
Comparing people fighting for liberation to the CIA is some of the most galaxy brained shit I've ever seen.
