who destroyed village after village, farm after farm, child after child. Who appropriated whatever parts of PALESTINIAN culture they wanted from the natives and then flushed the rest down the memory toilet along with the natives.

Many here in the US obviously have overgorged on the propaganda they've been fed since birth. Too bad. I guess it (the engorgement) truly was unavoidable, wasn't it? 2 + 2 = 5 and all that jazz.

Actually, I never said that any of the innocent civilian victims "deserve" their fate, did I? Oopsie Daisy Dec 2023 #64

Saying "Hamas is to blame", even though quite true... Silent3 Dec 2023 #66

Well, why don't you tell Hamas to stop hiding & shielding themselves among these "innocent civilians"? Tarheel_Dem Dec 2023 #67

That wouldn't do any good, but that doesn't excuse an "anything goes" policy for Israel Silent3 Dec 2023 #69
