I should have also stated, that the wise poster also stated. . .
Debates are to determine WHAT is right.
Arguments are to determine WHO is right.

They're wrong about that as well.
In debate, logical arguments are used in support for, or against, a resolution.

Is that your modus operandi in debate?

That's not a hill to die on.
That's a pit to die in.

Citation for the number of dead civilians please.
Palestinian authorities don’t make a distinction between combatants and civilians but vulnerable groups — children, health workers and journalists — are among those who make up much of the grim and still growing death toll.
In response, Israel responded with air and land attacks on the Gaza Strip, which have resulted in 10,305 deaths, according to a spokesperson for the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the besieged enclave. CNN cannot independently verify the numbers released by the ministry.

I stand with the Lord Jesus Christ. Condemning the violence on both sides, and hoping for the repentance of this ancient fued.
No one with a conscience can see children hurt and not see adject evil in that. The same for the elderly and the infirm.
This is a tragedy on mankind and it's ALL caused by our unwillingness to accept the one who brings peace, Jesus Christ.
No one will move me from this position, even unto death.

Personal reasons make this death hill a palatable destination. Plus, I'm not too nationalistic or isolationist to see Israel on a short list of INDISPENSABLE allies to The USA, which includes military aid. We can spend 731 billion annually (above board) on ourselves, so what's 2.7 billion on a good, strategically important, friend?

Choices are black and white.
I see the Liberty brought up often, more so in anti-Semitic posts.
Not saying you are but WTF.
An ally had 1400 people slaughtered.
You want to piss and moan about the USS Liberty?
Knock yourself out.
I still say destroy hamas, pave the #ing place and make it a parking lot.
Put in a giant ass mall.

One of the issues is people take everything that Hamas says as the gospel truth. There is no questioning just true acceptance that anything that comes out of their mouths is reality. How many of the refugees has Hamas killed? No one even questions that, like the refugee truck that was blown up with 70 women and children on it as they tried to leave for the sanctuary area. Let's not think about Hamas killing people just to use as propaganda. There are like 100s of stories about Hamas and what they are doing but people don't want to listen to those, but when Hamas says Israel has killed 5000 babies people scream war crimes with no clue to any of it.
I just want to tell people to STFU they are not there...
