    What is the purpose of punishment? To reform behavior? Or to make you feel better?

    You can claim justice, but in this case, that’s just making you feel better. You want to hurt someone because they hurt others. That’s how we’ve had never-ending wars. We as a species need to grow past this

      Do you think the Nuremberg trials were bad too?

      Using “pacisim” to excuse a genocidal maniac who has expressed zero regret for his actions. What a joke. I am glad Hitler died and I am glad Joe Biden is dying.

      The world will grow past these war criminals and their genocide mindset.

        You’re making assumptions. Fuck no. What’s happening is Gaza is some of the stupidest ape-brain shit we’ve ever done. So chill out, my dude.

        But this lust for vengeance is how Israel and Hamas continued escalating shit. Not a rational brain anywhere in that mess. “They hurt people, so I want to hurt them” is moronic. “They hurt people, so how do I stop them” is how we should be thinking.

          Hamas has not continued anything. Israel is the only party which refuses to accept a peaceful resolution. Hamas has accepted a two state solution since 2017. Israel refuses it.

          It is telling that you are trying to do a both sides on a genocide while feeling bad for its perpetrators.

              Hamas has long accepted the internationally recognized peaceful resolution according to 1967 borders and Israel refused it.

              Hamas uses violence as a last resort. Israel uses violence as a first resort.

              Get your revisionist history out of here.

                Chicken or the egg.

                My comment was removed by the mod, but that doesn’t make it any less true. My comment was only removed because I insulted you. Sorry I hurt your fee-fees.

                Thank you for also agreeing with me that Hamas is not innocent. It’s nice to be able to agree with someone even if they don’t even realize they proved your point.

                    I did. You clearly don’t understand the phrase chicken or the egg. Going back a thousand years can you tell me which religious ethno state definitely started all of this. No you can’t because historians can’t. It literally two groups that are attacking each other because the other did something bad a generation ago. It goes back and forth.

                    This is literally an eye or an eye and it appears to make every, even those not fighting, blind.
