How can anyone reasonably look at both sides in this conflict and reach the conclusion that Israel is the evil, aggressive party? It literally boggles my mind.
Hamas consistently violates the laws of armed conflict. They use indiscriminate rocket and mortar attacks that injure civilians. No. They INTENTIONALLY target Israeli civilians. They try to take civilians as hostages. The place their own forces in mosques, schools, and other non-combatant areas, so as to intentionally maximize civilian casualties for propaganda purposes.
No. There is an evil actor in this conflict, and it’s the religion of piece(s). We in the West are in dire need of another crusade.

Which means that, so far as the media coverage is concerned, Israel is a victim of its success in protecting its people from the murderous, and unprovoked, attacks by Hamas.
