Modern journalism: telling us rather than showing us.

I hope you fit in.

No, that's not clear at all.

But you should try to understand the insane excess these partygoers had compared to the squalor that Gazans have to live in.

It makes sense that with such disparity in qualities of life, those who feel they got the short end of the stick fight back against those who have too much.

This entire comment chain, as usual, is just people getting upset at criticizing excess wealth. Pretty much unless it's a billionaire, you're not allowed to criticize excess wealth.

The closer we get to the root of the problem, the more people we'll find that contribute to it and the less we'll find that are willing to admit it.

You don't have to consent to kiss to be kissed, lol.

A more accurate comparison would be if I punched someone in the street and claimed I was just sparring with them. It wasn’t a sparring, it was assault.

No, that's a willfully-inaccurate comparison. Why are you changing the word punch to spar? Lol.

You don't have to be sparring to punch someone just like you don't need consent to kiss someone. An unconsensual kiss is sexual assault, but it's still a kiss. In court, you're not going to be saying "he sexually assaulted her" and then leave it at that. How did he sexually assault her? Oh yeah, he kissed her lol.

Funny watching you people try to distort the meaning of language to fit your agenda. All it does is make you look desperate, though.

I don't think it was justified.

I'm not missing any line.

That's just the realities of war.

They are both flush with cash, it's just concentrated in the hands of their ruling class.

Saying a punch "isn't a punch" is wrong.

Just like saying a kiss "isn't a kiss" is wrong.

So… it wasn’t a kiss?

This should have made my point clear.

So... Israel isn't a neutral actor "just trying to defend themselves." They're cutting Gazans off from the rest of the world.

At what point do you admit when you're wrong?

What does it take?

The difference here is that one side has been constantly provoking and the other side has been constantly trying to create safety for themselves.

Did you know Israel and Egypt have been blockading Gaza since 2007?
