October 7th was actually a preemptive strike against the American-backed Israeli regime. The concept that this conflict is just “too complicated” is Knesset propaganda, and the genocidal actions of its troops on the ground must be justified to a western audience through browbeating and misinformation. Truly, the apartheid regime that occupies Palestine is where personal morals for liberals go to die.
It also had a very clear objective that was limited in scope (capture PoW and hostages to trade for Palestinians currently held in rape/torture-camps where they get surgery without anesthetics and often aren’t even charged with anything) so not a futile attempt at vengeance or terrorism, but a guerilla/military action against an armed occupying force aimed in the service of liberation. Fully justified under international law
compare that to the IDF’s response which is collective punishment, genocidal actions, carpet-bombing entire neighborhoods, killing hostages, torturing doctors, murdering aid-workers and journalists and ramping up general settler violence in the West Bank and other places.
It’s abundantly clear who the worst actor is here.
