    this terrorism does not help Palestine

    I never said it did.

    and excusing it is disgusting.

    I’m not excusing I’m explaining.

    This is not equal,

    Indeed. As said: On the one side a cat in a corner, on the other someone pinning it down. Who is at fault when claws go flying?

      Animals are not human. Human beings have agency. These people chose to be terrorists. There is no excuse, and the victims of their terrorism are not to blame.

        Humans are animals, push any of us far enough and you’ll see. As said: It’s easy to moralise from your desk.

        …also, who are you talking about? Cutting off an area’s water supply counts as terrorism in my book. Please clarify.
