Israel (now broader Mid East discussion)
One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist.
Out of curiosity, what do you expect Israel to do? Just continue to tolerate attacks and deaths and do nothing? Like many, you seem to forget what started all of this. Many have forgotten the images of dead Jewish men, women, and children, lying bloodied on the streets in Israel. Many ignore that the Oct. 7-8 2023 attack wasn't a one-and-done, and there's evidence more attacks were planned.
Hamas, Hezbollah, et al want to exterminate Jews and wipe out Israel off the map. Why wouldn't/shouldn't Israel beat them to the punch?
