"While each side is pointing a finger of blame at each other, the fact is BOTH SIDES, Israel’s Government and the Hamas Terrorist organization are responsible for war crimes in the killing of civilians.
While Israel does have a “right” to defend itself, massacring civilians in order to kill Hamas guerillas firing rockets over the border is unjustified and morally wrong. It is outrageous.
Yet, the actions of Hamas has ripped out the principled fight of the Palestinians against Israel’s blokades [sic] and Hamas is also guilty of war crimes, intentionally targeting civilians in their feeble and pathetic rocket attacks. The firing of rockets is as worthless as it is to send young brainwashed Palestinians into suicide missions to massacre Israeli civilians.
But, what else is new in this conflict?"
You can read more of his thoughts on the Huffington Post:
"But, like all conflicts between Palestinians and Israelis, the truth is lost, somewhere in the middle, amidst a cacophony of screaming, politics and revenge that exploits, rather than protects, the innocent victims on both sides whose lives will continue to be lost."
From the demonstrators outside the London embassy to the Israeli lobby in the US, the inability of so many stakeholders in this conflict to see the demons on both sides is extremely damaging. Blind support and hate is not going to stop people killing each other.
