Russia started the Ukraine war with an invasion because they were threatened by a Ukraine that was outside of their sphere of influence. Hamas started this war with Israel by breaking the ceasefire. These are not the same thing, so I don’t see any hypocrisy. Not once have I said that the loss of life isn’t tragic. I put a lot of blame on Hamas, because I do not see how Israel can do anything but respond. This is what I have defended. I have also defended us going into WWII and invading Germany to defeat the Nazis, despite the death to civilians it caused through our actions, so sue me.
Also, no, bemoaning rubbish coverage does not say anything about this either way. No matter what, I’d like better coverage than claiming Israel were targeting aid workers when the report it was based on said nothing of the such.
