So basically, anyone who thinks this is a straight up "good guy" (Israel) vs "bad guy" (Hamas) situation is clearly oversimplifying the matter and can't see that the rise of extremism can happen on either side, and there's no shortage of it in Israel. I highly encourage reading the full article.
I posted this a few pages back, and as usual, its completely ignored by the Nage Waza's of the thread who want to paint Israel as the most peace loving, equality seeking, angels of this conflict.

I will continue to re-post it until it is acknowledged. Any bets on how long it takes Nage Waza to label it as "hate speech" against Israel?
