View submission: Three Palestinian students shot and wounded in Burlington, Vermont, police say

View parent comment

A LOT of people on reddit are trying to argue it's ok for Israel to kill thousands of children because of where they live. There are way too many people here who have no clue and are pro-killing.

It is ok that this happens in Palestine but it's not ok if the civilian is killed in the US. So many pro-Israel people in reddit have no clue. Anyone innocent being killed is bad anywhere. It is never justified.

Meanwhile in Israel a large part of the population are against the government killing so many Palestinians - but the clueless redditor thinks Israel murdering thousands of civilians (and so many children) is fine and needed.

See, that perspective is absolutely bonkers to me. Anyone justifying the death of civilians is absolutely out of their minds. Out of touch with their own humanity. Neither Jews nor Palestinians “deserve” to die, anywhere. No one was “asking for it”, no civilian should be harmed in a war between two militant bodies (or whatever you want to call Hamas and the IDF). People are fucked… on both sides.
