just bombed a 5th century Greek Orthodox Church in Gaza. It’s the 3rd oldest in the world.

So Hamas has hostages= ok to kill people having nothing to do with it?

Fuck Hamas, that was a horrible thing they did and anyone who denies that isn't worth talking to.

Also fuck Israel for them doing the same thing.

Can somebody link that difference between the pictures office meme for me?

Someone killing someone does not mean you get to kill people unrelated to the conflict.

Is it really so hard to admit that for once both sides are the bad guy here?

Hear me out, I’m okay with the bombing of churches (not the senseless deaths). If Israel could bomb a church/ temple /synagogue / shrine until they reach the one that actually houses god, then we’d finally know which religion is real ( if any). /s

How about we don't bomb things based on ideology, even if the ideology is atheism...

It's a bit ironic to call out the issues with organized religion, and then go "I'm ok with bombing the buildings of those I consider 'other' "

Did I need two /s’s? Is that a thing?

Ah I think I misunderstood which part of the comment the /s was referring to, not sure why

That's my bad, I guess I can't read

Have the Hamas terrorists released their civilian hostages yet? I'm not seeing it.

Is there a race towards terror? I wasn't aware of it

They're probably dying under the same bombs genius ✌️
