When evil is actually elected to office, the voters are responsible. I don’t know whether the election was a sham or not. But whether it be Palestinians, Egyptians or any other, there can be no collateral damage and there are no innocent civilians to protect if was becomes necessary.
When the time comes to go to war with an oppressive dictator, the people of a nation become victims of that war. But what of a people who elect an internationally despotic government into power?
Moral relativism aside, “Kill em all and let God sort em out.” comes to mind.
“When evil is actually elected to office, the voters are responsible...there can be no collateral damage and there are no innocent civilians to protect...”
That is the exact same reasoning the islamists use to justify the killing of western civilians - we elect our leaders, so we are responsible for any “crimes” they commit.
Sadly, you are wrong. There are plenty of innocents in Egypt along with plenty of guilty. I’ll go ahead and keep my western ideals, thank you.
