Can you understand Israel's position without supporting it? I do.
Whats their position? We want your land so we are going to kill you for it?
That plus “we’re God’s chosen people” so killing civilians is A-OK.
The prime minister has an axe to grind with Palestine because his own brother was killed in an operation ~50 years ago. He's stated many times that he has no intention of any kind of peace and he's only using a tragedy to take revenge. It's no different than the u.s. going into Afghanistan after 9/11 and then using that as a foothold when they invaded Iraq under dubious circumstances. It's completely indefensible.
Ah - wonderful!
I've not heard a remotely defensible explanation for the ongoing genocidal land grab, but I do wonder what could conceivably justify it.
