Sowing confusion to deflect blame is Tel Aviv’s usual propaganda strategy.

    Israel has been doing tons of that since 1949 - where were you and the rest of the pearl-clutchers all this time?

      Not advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians, because I’m not a monster.

        And offering nothing but slap-on-the-wrist apologetics for Israel’s decades-old genocide while demonising Palestinians when they fight back makes you (somehow) less of a monster?

                So you admit to glossing over Israel’s decades-long genocide?

                That’s remarkably honest for a liberal.

                  Nope, I admit to saying that advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians is disgusting.

                  If you think those 2 things are the same, then you might have brain damage.

                    Riiiight… those of us who know better calling attention to the fact that you libs only began worrying about the “slaughtering of innocent civilians” as soon as Israel was handed a miniscule taste of it’s own medicine are doing so because… “brain damage”.

                    Riiiight.

                    Here. This wasn’t written for you - it was written to satirize you.

      I don’t see here where anyone is trying to justify Israel. They’re wrong. So are Hamas. It’s that simple.

        Here… you dropped some of your pro-Israel “both-side-ism” tropes - let me point it out for you.

        Advocating for the slaughtering of innocent civilians is disgusting.
