Reminder that a large swath of civilian deaths were children who had no say in the 2006 “election” of Hamas to administer the Gaza strip

Gazan checklist: Elect a terrorist government, support Intifada (70% support,) have lots of kids in miserable conditions while in what critics call an "open air prison," teach your kids to hate and become militants, allow Hamas to hide among your children while starting an unwinnable war, then blame Israel for the inevitable and predictable consequences.

Why do none of you seem to consider Gazan parents responsible for the circumstances of their children?

Maybe when you admit your parents raised you poorly, others might as well. You should lead by example.

Seems like you're trying to violate rule 5 without addressing the substance of my comment.

Your post was basically a blood libel against Palestinians. Is that enough addressing of the substance for you?

I'd love to hear you make this obviously absurd comparison. Tell me more about how personal responsibility for one's offspring is the same as baseless accusation of murdering and using the blood of Christians for rituals. I'll wait.

Blood libel or ritual murder libel (also blood accusation) is an antisemitic canard which falsely accuses Jews of murdering Christians in order to use their blood in the performance of religious rituals.

You are blaming children for the sins of the parents at best. Or absolutely making up accusations out of whole cloth at worst. It's not 1:1. But it's still not a good look.

So, not like blood libel at all then. Got it.

Parents are in fact responsible for the conditions their children experience. They chose to create them under those circumstances, they chose to stay in those conditions, (before the war started they could have left through Rafah,) and most chose to support Intifada, (citation above,) leading to the current reprisals.

What accusations did I make up?

Germans making excuses to hate innocent people. You making excuses to hate innocent people. How is a different?

You seem to be confusing acknowledging causality and responsibility with hate.

And you seem to be looking 1 degree out for causality and stopping.
