    Similar question to those who spit hatefully at Israel, like they don’t realise they sound like “they do bad, so we must do worse”.

      they sound like “they do bad, so we must do worse”

      This is a strawman of the general pro-Palestine crowd and more or less exactly replicates zionist framing of the whole discourse.

      People have a right to spit hatefully at “Israel”. Frankly from my perspective it’s strange not to feel a desire to do so (meaning, not to feel a hatred of “Israel”).
