    Germans in the 1940’s paid a grim price for bad political decisions they made in the 1930’s

    And it was a collective price, even if you weren’t a Nazi, and even if you didn’t vote for Hitler.

    This is no different. Palestinians have been on the wrong side of things for 80+ years. Eventually the bill comes due for decades of bad political decisions (coupled with a lack of international support outside of extremist regimes in the region.) and the price must be paid. We are seeing that now, occurring in real time. Maybe the next generation will be ready for peace. There always seems to be another generation that follows the current one, no matter how many bomb vests they strap on their children.

    How about some google pics of the underground tunnels used to store weapons, and paid for by Iran. The target the IDF is really after in Gaza. So little discussion of that among all the pics of dead babies and talk of genocide.

    Absent historical context, the pics mean nothing. For that matter, all the deaths mean nothing too, absent proper context.
