You're describing what the Palestinians did to Israel on 10/7, and have continued doing this entire time, when they launch rockets at Israeli population centers.
Why does one side have population centers and the other human shields? It's wrong regardless.
One side at least wants to pretend to have military targets?
You know that is actually insightful to the PTSD that many IDF soldiers are experiencing.
I'm sure the IDF soldiers feel very bad about all the women and children that they've driven bulldozers over.
Didn't forget they're not allowed to rape POW's. And that's a perfectly fine reason to riot.
That's also bad. Both of the sides are bad, and the Palestinian civilians are caught in the crossfire.
I didn't realize that HAMAS was as large an organization as the Israeli government and armed forces.
We're also talking about a completely different country from Palestine that had nothing to do with any part of any of these conflicts, and even then, an indiscriminate terrorist attack on Palestinian civilians wouldn't be justified by HAMAS's terrorism. That's like saying that the US bombings on Iraqi civilians are justified by Al Qaeda's attack on the WTC on 9/11.
Hezbollah has been firing rockets into Israel for a year now. It's hard to claim they have nothing to do with any part of these conflicts
And yet, that still doesn't justify killing civilians randomly.
And Israel has been running a military campaign to exterminate Palestine since the 1950s. It's hard to claim their hands are clean in any of these conflicts.
I still remember when they were offering Israeli citizenship with the purchase of former Palestinian homes to American Jews in the 2000s.
Claiming they were justified in attacking israel is very different from claiming they have nothing to do with the conflict though. If you feel that firing rockets at israeli civilians is fine and good, say that instead of pretending hezbollah was uninvolved
Hezbollah only exists because of Occupations and invasions by Israel
1982
Israeli Withdrawal
2006
2007 - Present

It was created and grew popular to make Israel withdraw, but today it mainly exists to make sure Iran's interests in Lebanon are 'defended'.
No, it's still due to resistance against Israeli Occupations and defense against Israeli Invasion, which they did again, after bombing the Capital along with many other cities, killing thousands of civilians.
Yeah, after Hezbollah attacked them they're back. Good thing the Lebanese have Hezbollah to defend them from this cycle
They were firing rockets into the Shebaa farms, which Israel acknowledged is not part of Israel. Israel started doing airstrikes into Lebanon and then Hizbullah retaliated.
Say what you want about Americans, we have yet to respond to a terror attack with fucking genocide.
