Is the way Israel has been treating Palestinians something they should've ignored? Or do you reckon that's why the attack occurred in the first place?
But let me guess, Hamas are terrorists and the IDF are well equipped soldiers so really Israel was just forced into this by evil people.
And before you reply with "I don't condone yadda yadda ya..", know that that's exactly what you're doing, that's exactly what the media is doing, by always forgetting about where this started, and always pointing to the reaction of the people that are being deprived of everything and slowly eradicated.
What you're insinuating here, if not bluntly stating it, is that Israel's hand was forced, validating their reaction, and in the same breath saying that before this attack, all was well.
You can no longer claim that "this is not the way to go about it" after flat out condoning and supporting Israel's reaction as it exposes your bias.
