[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right, because the Arab armies didn’t try to push Israel into the sea. I understand why the Arabs did what they did, but they lost and the Nakba was the consequence. War is war is war. Bad things happen when people insist on using violence to solve problems. You just don’t like that your side lost.

[b]Israel might be going too far right now, but it’s still tame compared to most everything from history. [/b]It’s still tame compared to other things going on right now. You want starvation? Go weep over Yemen. That’s a real famine.

But you won’t because you don’t care about Yemen. Just like most people don’t care about this conflict beyond a surface level. Blah blah blah spare me. Opinions are bad right now while Israel is in the news, but that’s temporary. Eventually it will go away and most people without a stake in it will move onto something else.[/quote]

"Might" be going too far?  Where are you getting your news?

What's maddening about Israel is the refusal to take any responsibility for the harm caused by their own actions.

It's one thing for there to be civil war and starvation in a country that has always been a mess.

But Israel is a wealthy, educated, well-supported country that acts with impunity as though it were desperate.

Sorry, Israel, but wealth and resources comes with moral and worldly responsibilities.

The power imbalance is why Israel and Gaza are, rightly, assessed on different scales, and Israel is failing terribly at its moral responsibilities.

Not a good look for Judaism.
