For things like the oucome of this poll is why sometimes i lose the hope in the humankind.
Is very sad to find people who thinks that in feuds like this one there are the good and the bad of the movie, and the solution of ending it is bombing cities and spreading more guaranteed hate towards the next generations living there.

So I thought that I too can then lump Gazans with Hamas.

Difference is the Israelis/Jews are not targeting civilians where Gazans/Hamas are.

Funny, every time Jews or Israelis are killed, all one hears are crickets.

Everyone knows that there is a long history of violence on both sides-nobody is "right"-but as Americans we should not be funding the war efforts for a feud that WILL NEVER END. Netanyahu will be charged with WAR CRIMES so we need to distance ourselves.

What is wrong with focusing on our own country and it's citizens for a change?

Say it as many times as you need to, but the facts are that there have only been 3 civilian Israeli deaths (one was not a citizen I believe) and over 1,800 deaths in Gaza-a place the size of the city of Philadelphia with a similar population. There is nowhere to hide-it is a figurative FISHBOWL.

About 70% of the nearly 2,000 deaths in Gaza have been civilians so Israel must be AWFUL with their "precision targeting".

There is more to the story-Israel has alterior motives; I just hope plain genocide isn't it.

First Hamas attacked Israel with rockets and then Israel responded with air strikes. Do you not understand the difference? By the way, 2 Israelis were injured today from Hamas rocket fire.

Now you know that's not "politically correct"! You will hurt the feelings of "tolerant" liberals out there.
