      We can no longer claim to be a national community that is civilized.
      We are Savages as we fail to protect the Palestinians.
      Meanwhile the so-called Land of the Free threatens to protect Israel while it is murdering Palestinians.
      This is insane. We have crossed the line and have entered territory in 1984

    During the British colonization of Kenya, the rebels were labeled terrorists, savages, baby killers. They did conduct raids in which even children were killed against the British and their allies. The language was meant to erase distinctions between combatant and non-combatant and allowed the British to inflict terrible collective punishment. Same with the Algerians fighting France and its settlers. The ANC as well, to some extent.
    Hamas isn't ISIS or AQ. They don't live and die and kill for the thrill of it or in hope of a messianic vision. From Gaza's rooftops they can see the lands their parents and grandparents were marched at gunpoint out of, now populated by citizens of a state that has imprisoned them in an open-air concentration camp where hopw does not exist. Their political "rivals" are a comprador government which cracks Palestinian heads open if they dare protest against apartheid and occupation, and disarmed them so they can't defend their land or honor.
    They're a classic people's militia with a Jihadist rather than a Maoist spin, and their martrydom is as "irrational" as that of the Vietcong.
