Geez, can you have a conversation without engaging in ad-hominem attacks? You've really thrown civilty out the window here.

Again, Palestine wants to wipe Israel off the face of this earth. Why is it okay for Palestine to do it and not Israel?

Of course Palestine wants to wipe out Israel, they fucked the Palestinians 10 times sideways and displaced the whole population. But does anyone seriously think Palestine is capable of wiping out israel? I dont think either is OK, but how much suffering can you lay on a whole population before retaliation is justified? Why shouldn't the Palestinians hate Israel when it's creation led to all of them losing their homes?

At least you're consistently dumb. I just wish that blissful dumbness would bleed over into defending Israel from time to time.

Damn, fuck off asshole. You have no idea how much leeway I've given Israel until now. I've defended Israel, and I just can't anymore. Israel created a mess, and their only solution is to annihilate the people they displaced?

I don't think you're just stupid. I think you're an actual horrible person to dismiss an entire country and its people because somebody told you one side is good and one side is bad.

I started looking into the history of the situation and my opinion changed. I'm not dismissing the Israeli people, but I'm not going to support their retalliation either. I'm a horrible person for that? Wouldn't that make you a horrible person for supporting Israel's genocide of Palestinians? Nobody "told me what to think" you smug prick, can you stop projecting for one conversation?
