I've always had sympathy for the Palestinian people. Israel has oppressed them for generations and that's wrong.

That said...

I just watched a video where Hamas militants killed a young girl at the music festival, stripped her naked and paraded her body through the streets. As they passed, regular civilians, not soldiers, ran over to spit on her corpse.

And just like that, my sympathy is gone. I know someone is going say the Israelis are just as bad and blah blah. You're not wrong, but it doesn't matter. The emotional side of my brain can't see a video like that and then offer any type of support to those people.

Pulling dead children out of rubble for 70 years doesn't lend itself well to civilized behavior.
