I don't really think a country, where half of the population support a terrorist group, that recently performed one of the worst attacks on innocent people the world has seen in a long time, really has the right to claim any moral high ground.

The other "half" are who I care about. They're getting killed by Israel non descriminately, while, Hamas( a group Palestinians don't care for, who has taken control of Gaza by force)ignores their needs.

Also worth questioning exactly why Hamas is so ascendant compared to the much more peaceful PLO... Not saying there weren't still problems back then but nothing, nothing like this

Neither do the rest of us on the list.

We just full on support it and give weapons to people who have already proven they do not care about innocents

Yeah supporting any side in this conflict or acting like one side is good and the other is bad is just too simplistic.

Giving any side more weapons, isn't going to bring a long term peaceful solution.

The only way out is with negotiations, not with more violence. Both parties need to make concessions.
