And honestly, if it had been my daughter raped and killed at a music festival, I'd have done worse.
And by the same proportion, what would be the justified reaction of Palestinians to Israel now if they had the means? Complete nuclear annihilation?
Israel exists. That bell can't be un-rung. Palestinians could have got used to that fact and tried to build a nation, instead they want to kill Jews (and it is Jews, not just Israelis).
Israel doesn't have clean hands in this, and could have done better as well. I've not heard of mass rapes by Israeli soldiers, though.
Both the US and Israel would have been better off not reacting at all than this.
It literally murdered 5% of Iraq's population in cold blood on the basis of outright lies.
Iraqi mothers still suffer the US' war crimes.
Unfortunately the citizens of these countries don't want to live in functioning democracies.
It is true that the US often acts like an imperialist monster. That doesn't make other similar behavior acceptable.
