      The music festival was symbolic, look at these people enjoying music at a decadent party, on our LAND, while our people can’t even leave this caged city…

      The divide between the haves and have nots is stark, and its going to get people angry… I don’t agree with them, but 100% believe they targeted this festival to send a message to their own people

              People that are saying that Israel started it are not justifying the attack. They’re simply provided context and understanding about why it happened.

              You treat people like they’re subhuman it shouldn’t be a surprise that they treat you like your life isn’t worth anything either.

                No shit Sherlock is that what’s happening? Oh my God thanks for the clarification. The fact is it doesn’t matter because they’ve crossed and egregious line.

                Are you two?

                How many wrongs make a right?

                  There’s no right coming from this. Nothing good’s going to happen from this. Only pain and misery for everyone. Both parties are stuck in a terrible struggle.

                  I don’t know the path to peace here, I don’t think anyone really does. That’s why we haven’t had peace for 50 years.

      Yes. They had no thought to the effect it would have on public opinion? Do you see the other headline where Germany will review their aid to Palestine?

      Hard for me to believe they would want to shoot themselves in the foot like that. Very short sighted.

          Some men just want to see the world burn.

          I get what you’re saying and can accept that Hamas is this way. I am not up to date on them.

          But I do think it is important to point out just how foolish and short sighted it is to be that way. It feels to me like saying the sky is blue but I think it should be said.

        Can’t blame Germany here. One of the victims was a German woman, which was later seen on the back of a truck, all of her limbs broken / deformed, just in underwear and with a deep wound in the head, paraded around and spat at from even civilians.

        Unfortunately I don’t think they have the perspective to think long term. Even when the Palestinians are peaceful, Israel continues to evict them from their homes and steal more of their land in violation of UN accords. It’s incredibly sad that Palestinians are choosing to kill civilians, but the Israel military have targeted Palestinian civilians many times over the past 15 years, and that hasn’t really shifted the public opinion in the west against Israel, so they likely assume there is no hope for western support. These are desperate people that are fighting back in a hopeless lopsided war. They likely know really have no hope of winning at this point, but are trying to take out as much revenge as they can against their oppressors, the Israeli people.

        Also, these attacks were likely funded by Iran, and Iran is not as interested in Palestinian freedom as much as they are in the destruction of Israel, so the Palestinians have likely been encouraged to take action that will not help their cause for freedom because it will help Iran with their goals of destabilizing israel. It’s horribly sad all around.
