Is that any different than depicting the slaughter that's occurred since then, with a body count over 10x higher, as 'Israel arresting Palestinians?'

Was somebody classifying this war as nothing but arrests, or is that a mischaracterization? Be honest with me now.

The only person being dishonest here is you. The slaughtering of 1000 civilians at a music festival was abhorrent, and the slaughtering of 30,000 more civilians in response is 30x as abhorrent. Calling the capture and torture of individuals as "arrests" makes you no better than Cheney and Bush with their "enhanced interrogation" bullshit.

I get you are passionate but do you think there is a chance you should check to make sure you are responding to the correct people?
