In response to a terrorist attack, Israel became terrorist. who has the highest body count of the innocent, Hamas or Israel ?
Israel. But they have god on their side
How can you say that it was a terrorist attack on 7th October? Israel has invaded , occupied & settled Palestinian's land. The basic law is that everyone subjected to such invasion has the right to redress the situation & recover their possessions by whatever means.
Pragmatic politics 101
If you are a career politician of whatever bent the only thing sure to always trump the the ethics of political morality are the ethics of exploitable economics.
What exploitable economics has Israel? Or is the theft of Palestinian oil & gas on behalf of the USA now economics & not a criminal act?
How many angels can dance the line between a crime and a legitimaate business tactic toward the gain of the same economic outsome?
Especially when no two nations have exactly the same financial laws.
Think about how the continued existence of Israel geographically where it is, it's ties to all the major parties in the western world, its uneasy connection to wider Judaism and political zionism and the political donations members of so many political parties are reliant up and then consider, along with your own points, the ethics of exploitable economics, in not pissing them off the goose that lays golden eggs.
@LenHazell53 Sadly Len the goose has cooked itself over Gaza. Or perhaps the better metaphore is that they continue to slap egg on their faces every time that they undertake more genocide. SA is well placed to understand how close they came to having a Ruanda type genocide black vs white. They probably equally recognise how close Israel is in having the same atrocity perpetrated against its citizens.
