    South Africa has been far more helpful to Palestine than any amount of missiles launched at civilians will ever be.

      I wouldn’t discount South Africa’s actions and the help they provided by speaking up and if you think it was more of a benefit to the Palestinians then you’re welcome to think that. But I believe people help in ways they find they are able to. South Africa has an official voice in the UN to speak up and bring up a case against Israel. Hezbollah is a militia group and political party born out of necessity due to the historical conflict in the area. They are both helping in their own ways. The degree of how much they help is always subject to interpretation.

          Human rights and international law violations that Israel has committed is also a good reason to attack them in my opinion. And no, it is not an infinite casus belli. The level of civilian deaths Israel has inflicted is not excusable.
