Is it hand-wringing to feel upset at civilians being taken hostage? Tell me why I should look an 8-year old Israeli kid in the eye and tell them they deserve what’s coming to them
I think it doesn’t help to turn the focal core of what you’re upset with to that, in this moment. Yeah, it sucks. But tell me why I should look a Palestinian 8-year old in the eye and tell them their parents deserved to be tortured and killed. A tiger is backed into a corner and stabbed repeatedly, and swipes out with its claws — if you’re unhappy with who it hits, let’s root for the tiger to liberate itself so there isn’t a need for any swiping. And let’s also be upset with the assholes who would put their children in the way of a cornered tiger as a means of controlling it

Not in the least what I said, but if you need a reason, it’s a pretty funny thing to go around doing
Yeah so funny to tell a child they deserved to be hurt
Man you would be crying about the Romanov children halfway through the Russian civil war. Shut the fuck up
Yes, imagining you going around and telling random Israeli children that is quite funny to me
