Palestine or Ireal

Look, I totally get wanting to support the underdog, but honestly? Israel is literally fighting for its survival here. Like, imagine if your neighbors kept launching rockets at your house and then acted shocked when you called the cops.I mean, over 12,000 rockets fired at Israel in just three months? That's like someone throwing rocks at your window every single day [1]. And we're supposed to act like Israel's the aggressor here? Hamas literally uses human shields - they're firing rockets from schools and hospitals! They've established operations in tunnels underneath civilian centers, including apartment buildings, schools, mosques, and hospitals [2]. That's not resistance, that's terrorism with extra steps. The whole "free Palestine" thing sounds super romantic until you realize Hamas's actual goal isn't freedom - it's eliminating Israel entirely. They're not fighting for a two-state solution, they want no Israeli state at all. How is that fair to the millions of Israelis who just want to live their lives without dodging rockets?
