Those who deliberately kill/kidnap/hurt civilians, they belong in a separate category of evil and deserve all the condemnation they get.

The Palestine side will claim that very motivation.

@Horace

Of course they will, but they would be wrong would they not?

The fact the Palestinians are wrong is really all that matters.

I’m sure it’s complicated. There is no lack of anecdotes about dead civilians on either side. What’s true is that this attack was wrong.

And in the end probably ill-advised.

I just wonder how much direct skin in the game the perpetrators have. Whether their interests are harmed by a counter attack.

[Renauda]

They’re fanatics, so it doesn’t matter a whole helluva lot how much skin they do or don’t have in the game.

Can we move Israel to the Tex/Mex border and have them control our border?

That would solve a lot of problems.

Don't see Russian partisans demonstrating in the streets without repercussion beyond agape memes.

Why would Russian partisans go to the streets when they have prime time slots on right wing media? Or, more recently, twitter?

I think that may be a strawman of whomever you're referring to. It's my understanding that strawmanning is bad.

I wish.
