Call me pisher but I'm not sure I'm on board with fighting terrorism with more terrorism.
Same. If Israel had used a different, less indiscriminate method or had at least done it at a time that people weren't going to be in public, then I would have been a bit more supportive.
I think I understand what Israel was going for - I think they were mainly trying to scare the shit out of Hezbollah and cause chaos by making their main routes of communication compromised; and you know what, I think that's reasonable. However, like usual, they apparently decided that civilian casualties don't matter; which is where I draw the line.
"Should we be making sure we aren't gonna kill civilians?"
"Lmao, nah, just rig anything electronic that has any remote connection to Hezbollah with explosives. Everyone knows that everyone in Lebanon is """Hezbollah"""." - Israel, probably.
Sounds like a good way to murder more children.
Don’t let America hear that. They’ll call you a terrorist and tankie for having the gall of skepticism.
