| People in places like this generally don't feel the need to condemn Hamas because it's understood that they are bad. Hamas is not an ally of the United States, it's troops and police force don't train with the United States military, it does not buy weapons from United States factories, and it does not receive government aid from the United States. If you feel the need to, you can add a condemnation of Hamas to basically every post here and it'll be accurate. Hell if you want to add a condemnation to the Iranian and North Korean governments too while you're there, that'd be fine too. |

That doesn't move a discussion towards a better understanding of each other, it fosters division. Please don't do that. |

| If the only defense you can think up is that Hamas is worse, it's a bad sign. |

| ▲ | bamboozled 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | It's not a defense, it's a constant reminder that one side is bad or worse. As someone who believes in modern values and society, I think it's very important to acknowledge all of the recent events. If you care about the victims, you should also care about the victims at the music festival too. Because they're one and the same, innocent people who were murdered for stupid ideology. |

| If you're going to put words in someone's mouth, at least make them big words. |
