Watching this play out is like some cursed speedrun of the wars in the 00s. The impetus is a horrible terrorist attack but the reaction is so utterly out of lockstep and lied about through "trusted" officials that within a frankly short period of time the warhawks become either ignored, reviled, or flip their position altogether.

We're currently in the "those aren't civilian deaths they are terrorists" phase of the debacle in which the sheer scope of the damage inflicted is simply being ignored and it is implied (albeit rarely stated) that it's okay to kill hundreds of civilians to rescue hostages. Would love to know how bombing cemeteries has anything to do with fighting Hamas, but I think the people defending it either already know it's deeply immoral and just know they can't publicly say they support mass murder (or) they will pretend to have never known or had that opinion years down the line.
