Killing - no matter the victim is inhuman.

Believing one side has the right to kill while the other must take it, is pretty gross.

"Slaughtering civilians in the streets" is precisely what the IDF does on the regular, just so you know. It's hard to imagine any group of people would live under military occupation for 70+ years after being forced to leave their homes for refugee camps without the desire to fight for their freedom.

There is almost nothing in this world that is more human than killing other humans. History is full of it. Religious texts are full of it. It's what humans are best at. Is it awful? Sure, but it's an act as human as it gets.

Point made. Sadly it's true. Especially today as we spend trillions on technology designed to kill.
