“No one is looking at us or the extent of this disaster or the crimes that we are experiencing in Gaza,” he said. Still holding his microphone, he slid off his flak jacket marked with the word PRESS and unstrapped his helmet.

“These protection jackets and helmets don’t protect us,” he said, flinging the equipment to the ground. “Nothing protects journalists. … We lose our lives for no reason.”

    Lots of people should do lots of things to make the world better. I feel they’re not going to, though.

      Yeah. Hamas is the only group which can really end this, though. Israel ending it involves a lot of dead people. They’re not going to stop until Hamas cannot make war any longer, and I can’t blame them.

        The world and history will blame them. Nobody, not a single soul, is concerned with where you cast the blame.

            How far into someone else’s lands are these “defenders”?

              A few miles. Gotta reach the rocket sites somehow. Or do you think they should just sit there and do nothing while genocidal lunatics lob rockets at civilians

                How many people in Israel those rockets kill again since the 7th?

                  It doesn’t matter. A defense is a defense. You can’t be stupid enough to seriously think they should just sit there and accept being under constant attack because the attacks aren’t very effective.

                    It does matter, that is the basis of proportionate response. A defense is an offensive when you leave your borders. These things matter, even if you don’t care to believe so. Just like civilian deaths matter, no matter whose side is doing the killing. But 4000 kids dead and your still griping about what a raw deal Israel got. How broken can your mind be?
