but Israel still bad, or did the meta changed?

  • Israel Military is still bad.
  • Hamas is still bad.

That meta hasn't changed.

Hamas holding a selection of world citizens as hostages puts a interesting spin on international support and responses.

Russia in particular has a history of hostages be damned, we're going to hurt the hostage takers....

Israel Military is still bad. Hamas is still bad. That meta hasn’t changed.

This is not the meta I encountered here but a normal persons view on the conflict that I totally agree and share with you!

Yeah... Lots of people have vested interests, or are just responding emotionally.. so we get lots of drive by outrage posting.

Hard to have a civil discussion on the news topics that actually has a real thoughtful back and forth debate. (Repeating talking points at each other isn't a debate, it's just noise)

I still try, every once in a while we find it, and it's worth while....

No, Israel is not bad. The entire country is in shock after a devastating terror attack that killed thousands. They have a right to defend themselves. What can and should be criticized and questioned is the current government and how they act in Gaza. On the other side, any form of anti-semitism that hides as criticism should not be tolerated.

True but it is also very important not to flag any appropriate criticism directly as anti-semitism.
