This is a brutal decades long chain of events. As a 3rd party picking sides is just as muddy and bloody as choosing between croats and serbs. There is no easy explanation or solution to historical intergenerational violence.
I feel awful for people who are caught in the middle.

I agree with you it's hard to pick sides as a 3rd party, but equally despicable?
The stuff Hamas has done here is some of the must disturbing, gut wrenching things I've ever seen/read.
I can't get some of these things out of my head and it's like seeing Game of Thrones level brutality played out on real people.
No one should be giving Israel a pass for their wrongdoings, but you don't have to pretend things are "equally despicable" either, they're not.
