Yeah, sucks to be the Palestinians. That's the sort of thing that happens when conquered. As they should know since the Muslims have taken land belonging to others for quite some time now. en.wikipedia.org
Difference being that, for most of us, we take our lumps and move on with our lives. Find some place else to settle down and call home. ("Why Are Palestinians Still Living as Refugees 6 Decades Later?" www.historynewsnetwork.org (short answer, they are the only group in our existence that are perpetual refugees generations down the line. We could have a Palestinian president of the United States who was born here and he would still be a Palestinian refugee)).
Sounds like the Palestinians should have taken those peace deals they were offered five times in the last 90 years. ("How Palestine rejected offer to have its own state 5 times in the past" lawandsocietymagazine.com). Or maybe they should slaughter some more Jewish civilians twenty years from now and see if that works out better for them.
Welp then this is a war of terrorists versus terrorists.
Yes, both sides... Israel defending itself from terrorists who murdered 1,200 civilians in a war that they started is the same exact thing as Lebanon inserting itself into that war and launching thousands of rockets against at random for the express purpose of ???
But, hey, at least you almost admitted that HezzBawlzOff are terrorists, so that's some progress. Hamas next? A girl can dream, can't she?
With the backstory of one side simply taking land from the other side for the past half century because "god wants them to have it"

Muslim colonization. en.wikipedia.org Yes, I wonder which group of people to root for? I'll go for the ones that are least likely to murder me and everyone I care about because I don't believe in their god and superstitions.
Define terrorist - does it include slaughtering kids if their parents don't surrender their homes?

Welp, in this case I would define it as the fine folks who launched thousands of rockets at a neighboring nation, often targeting civilians for the sake of "terrorizing" them. Is that definition good enough for you?
How about the guy who murdered ~300 of our troops while they were acting as peacekeepers? drudge.com Someone that our own government offered $7 million for last year. Or that not terroristy enough for you?

Marco Rubio once said that without his inheritance, Trump would be hawking watches on a New York street corner. Honestly, even with that inheritance and everything he's swindled from the American people, he still feels like the guy in a trench coat saying, 'Hey, buddy, wanna buy a watch?' So, are we really shocked when the guy selling watches turns out to be just as slick as a Bible salesman?" Glen Carroll (@MrGlenCarroll) September 26, 2024
Do remember when bibi gave the green light to more religious extremist "settlers" to steal the homes of innocent people because god wants the jews to have it? #22 | Posted by SpeakSoftly
Sure! That's the way Likud rolls. Do you remember who that land belonged to before the Muslims stole it? Someone else.
That's the way the world works. Someone has land and someone else comes along later and takes it from them. The Jews claim it's theirs. Is it? I dunno, but the Palestinians have fought for it repeatedly and lost every single time.
Do you remember the five times Palestinians refused statehood in the last 90 years because they would much rather have each and every Jew eliminated?
The offer was Palestinian statehood in exchange for peace with the Jews. Apparently the Palestinians prefer their current lifestyle, punctuated by ineffectual terrorism that only results in them losing more land and freedom. And we should pretend that they're the victims when they receive payback for their terrorist attacks? Or that the Lebanese were just innocent bystanders when Israel helped HezzBawlzOff meet their 72 virgins and starts the ground assault on a group that launched thousands of rockets at them over the last year?
