    And they had to have known this would be the outcome.

    So that was part of their calculation.

      They knew they would retaliate, but this is frankly disgusting.

      Israel wanted this and are milking it for all it’s worth. What Israel is doing is an extremely disproportionate and exaggerated response in an attempt to continue to grab as much land as illegally as possible.

      Gaza is already one of the most densely populated places on earth, and they want to cut their available land in half.

      It’s insane that it’s being supported. Palestine does something and even the British send Warships to help. Israel does something far worse and the most we get is the EU saying “hmm this might not be legal”. It sucks.

        Because they’re fighting terrorists. That’s why, it’s not black and white like you’re making it out to be.
