When you say stuff like "The Palestinians have chosen to adopt Hamas as it's official leadership instead of disarming them. And no, that doesn't mean the the innocents being killed "deserve" to die. Nobody deserves to die for the crimes of others. But the attacks Israel is making on Hamas in Palestine are as well-justified as the attacks the U.S. made on Afghanistan in the wake of 9/11. Afghanistan had no direct involvement in the attacks, but they were harboring the people who did and refused to take action against them," you are saying they deserve it.
You should be against the killings of innocents in Afghanistan, too. Are you saying Americans should abandon all of our morals and cultural beliefs because we get hit by terrorists? Don't the "terrorists win" then? I say despicable acts should engender us to hold our own anti-murder convictions even more closely to our hearts!
