Entire Palestinian families massacred. Children slaughtered. Threats of a “second Nakba.” Israel’s war on Gaza isn’t a war on Hamas — it’s a war on Palestinian civilians.
What the hell kind of response and way of thinking is this? You were just told “hundreds of children were killed” and your response is “yeah, but how many innocents did the people living in the same area as those children kill?”
Not only is your comment propagating the fucked up idea that children should pay for the crimes of their parents, but it’s also quite racist/xenophobic (“they live in the same area, so they/their parents must be just like the rest of them!”).
Perhaps there’s something going over my head, but the more I read it, the more it just sounds like a really fucked up comment to me.
When I saw this comment, I didn’t parse it 'cause it wasn’t obvious to me what they were trying to say. Now that you’ve unpacked it, it’s much more clear, and yes, completely fucked. Thanks for calling them out.
I’m not saying that children should pay the price, nor am i supporting any kind of war against civilians. I’m just annoyed by the extreme one-sided news articles and comments here on lemmy to this complex matter.
And how many israeli leaders were killed by Palestinians? There were surely a lot of them ravin
