Will [your relatives in Israel] be armed? Excuse me, armed? Yes, great plan, we'll hand the grannies and white collar professionals a decrepit Uzi apiece and they can shoot at rockets in the sky. What could go wrong.
Will they be okay? Well, they're still more likely to die in a traffic accident, provided they don't attend any music festivals or live in walking distance of an occupied territory full of angry, heavily armed terrorists who've been locked in by Israel and Egypt together.
What will happen now? Israel will murder a lot of Palestinian civilians to make up for Israeli civilians being murdered, because that's definitely how right action works, and because Israel truly believes they should kill a hundred Palestinians for every Israeli life. Something something, Nietschze quote about monsters.
If this situation were an AITA on Reddit, users would conclude Everyone Sucks Here. If only peace in the Middle East were as easily moderated.
ReplyDeleteEveryone DOES suck here and also even though Hamas is a bunch of murdering liars we STILL don't target civilians! It is a literal war crime! WHYYYYY.
