    That’s a matter of opinion. I can understand why many Palestinians do find it appropriate, especially given the intense indoctrination that Palestinian children experience, and the lack of available unbiased credible information there.

    Given my own experience and information, I find it a lot more appropriate to fight back against Hamas, the oppressive regime that instigated this war, hides among civilians to maximize casualties, and has refused to surrender to end the war, which they could do at any time. I believe they are the primary cause of all of this death and destruction and suffering, not Israel defending itself.

    Would I feel the same way were I in their shoes? Hard to say.

      You dodged the question. When the IDF is attacking and murdering Palestinians, do those Palestinians have a right to take up arms and fight back? It’s a simple yes or no question.

        Some questions cannot be fairly answered with a simple yes or no, like, “Have you stopped beating your wife?”

        There’s a lot of bias packed into your question. If the IDF is in fact MURDERING, as in, illegally killing people, yes they do. However, if the IDF is acting within the law they absolutely do not. Either way, I’d say it’s probably a bad move to do so and likely to get one shot.

          I’m talking about right now. For example, for the people in Rafah. Do the Palestinians in Rafah have the right to fight back against the IDF that is shelling them and attacking their homes with tanks?

              Of course they are people. Stop making me your strawman.

            No, that’s a legal attack on Hamas. If they take up arms they are defending Hamas as a militant.

              So, they just have to let themselves be blown up and shot and fighting back is illegal?

                As if those are the only two options. Refugees in Rafah are evacuating, very few are being blown up or becoming militants.
