No it's only okay when israel does it. When Hamas does the same thing is when we discover morality.
Also a reminder that israel has on average killed more Palestinian kids every single day since Oct7 than Hamas did on Oct7 in total.
I've been the one saying nobody should be killing kids the whole time
That's really cool if there were more people saying that would not even exist. Because the only reason they exist is in response to israel killing children.
Sadly we all decided to collectively ignored israel killing kids for 75 years so it starts feeling a little hollow when we criticize others for doing it.
Luckily Hamas only had a 3% child casualty rate on oct7 because they took care to avoid killing children (this is even including israeli friendly fire).
Compared to israels horrible Genocidal 40% child casualty rate in Gaza with worlds most advanced weapons it's really weird that people keep painting Hamas as child killers.
No. We haven't. That's the point. But there's a limit to what a small country can achieve from the other side of Europe. The Irish are the prime example they've always stood up for Palestine it just doesn't make enough of a difference. They don't deserve to be lumped in with the Americans just because they aren't powerful.
Ireland and Spain are making some good moves lately but the only Western countries that can really moral high ground this one are Sweden and Iceland
The Irish government have also not always stood up for Palestine. They have even bought israeli weapons in 2010
I disagree with the premise that standing up for Palestine means you have to always and in every instance act against Israel. This isn't a fight to the death where only one side can survive and shouldn't be framed that way.
Buying weapons from Genocidal Nazis sure isn't helping Palestine.
