Hamas had human shields. What is there to argue about? Should we take innocent lives to punish the guilty? Doesn't sound like justice to me.
The world is a shit place. People are really flirting with the idea of fascism in America. Its insane but they are doing it. Americans are lucky now to have relatively peaceful lives despite corporations wanting to oppress them. Why we involved ourselves with the middle east is toothpaste we can't get back in the tube. At what point as Americans are we allowed to bow out of the discussion? To me, it's when we cast our ballot and its for the side that is the lesser evil. As individuals we are purposefully cut off from the reigns of power and until the people seize them again we have no choice but to keep making the humbling choice.
