          You could’ve asked why first. I am not, BTW, defending atrocities committed during October 7th. These are different things.

            Your comments say otherwise. Saying two contradictory things doesn’t suddenly make you right.

              Bruh.

              October 7th = legitimate military action against a foreign oppressor.

              Actions of a fraction of individual soldiers on October 7th = atrocities punishable by international law.

              That’s the distinction, and it’ll remain until there’s evidence Hamas ordered or encouraged atrocities against civilians.

                October 7th = legitimate military action against a foreign oppressor.

                Terrorist attack on a soveign nation.

                Actions of a fraction of individual soldiers on October 7th = atrocities punishable by international law.

                Action of a majority of individuals. Remember 99% is still a fraction

                That’s the distinction, and it’ll remain until there’s evidence Hamas ordered or encouraged atrocities against civilians.

                There is evidence, you simply choose to ignore it.

          I was gonna explain a lot of things, but after seeing your second sentence yeah that’s pointless. I’ll just mention that the UN already condemned Israel for war crimes in Gaza. Israel’s response is neither legal nor required for anything except to keep their brutal occupation going.
