To all you lesser evil voters: This is where your tax dollars are going. Demand better, or you're complicit.
Are you suggesting that hundreds of dead Israeli citizens would be a better state of affairs?
If your position is that we should not support military action that blatantly violates standard rules of engagement, that would apply to the Iranian military just as much as it applies to the IDF. There's no contradiction in criticizing IDF action in Gaza for not trying to minimize civilian casualties while also working to minimize civilian casualties in Israel as a result of Iranian action.
Bombing a nazi state currently committing a genocide is, in fact, a good thing.
There's also barely any "civilians" in occupied Palestine except the children. Half the population are IDF conscripts; most of the other half are fascist zionists just the same. And all are settler colonizers.
Until the colonial "state" has been dismantled, all violence — Palestinian or not — against the occupation is justified.
