    And the lesson to be learned here is that there is not always a “good guy” in a conflict.

    Sometimes they are both just worthless assholes.

      One is a villain with a cause you can relate to, one is a hero that’s just absolutely evil.

      Pick a side. I sure can’t.

        Those are both the same thing at the end of the day.

        It’s unfortunate that the God they worship doesn’t exist, because they would both be going straight to hell.

        I love how you cherry pick in Palestine’s favor by explicitly mentioning how many children in general Israel has killed vs how many children specifically belonging to Israel that Palestine has killed.

        You’re also missing the point that neither is good. They’re women and fucking children, innocents FFS. You can’t put a metric on good to either of those, those are both objectively bad things and they should both be punished for it.

          1. I didn’t cherry pick shit. I just worded that poorly and you would rather attack me on style than substance https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties

          2. Scale absolutely makes a difference. Especially when you consider how much funding Israeli gets. Maybe there is no “good guy” but when one side starts killing orders of magnitudes more innocents than the other side then one side definitely becomes the bad guys.

            1. Then don’t word it poorly next time. Thank you for providing data though, most people don’t do that and that was really cool of you

            2. One side may be worse, but at the end of the day, they both deliberately killed innocents. It doesn’t matter how many more one killed, they are BOTH BAD GUYS.
