Your what-about-ism, is noted.

Don't be childish.

Whataboutism can provide necessary context into whether or not a particular line of critique is relevant or fair, and behavior that may be imperfect by international standards may be appropriate in a given geopolitical neighborhood.[7] Accusing an interlocutor of whataboutism can also in itself be manipulative and serve the motive of discrediting, as critical talking points can be used selectively and purposefully even as the starting point of the conversation (cf. agenda setting, framing, framing effect, priming, cherry picking). [source]​

Using terrorism against terrorists is not fighting the good fight.
It's just being a terrorist yourself.

Your disgusting willingness to equate a targeted attack on a terrorist organization intended to destabilize and demoralize that organization, to indiscriminate and ongoing attacks targeting civilian population centers and intended to terrorizes and demoralizes that population, reduces you to little more than an apologist for such organizations.

It's disgusting that your posts condone indiscriminate attacks
on not just Hamas, but also bystanders & other users of pagers
& walkie talkies. Moreover, Israel's attacks are designed to maim
the users & bystanders, given the small size of the explosives.
Many eyes & fingers have been lost. Children are especially
vulnerable to such explosives, & have died.
USA should stop subsidizing "God's Chosen" & their deadly,
horrible, & illegal attacks on civilians.

I'm not.
You were responding to a post that was discussing the moral implications of this attack.
You then brought up the "but what about hamas, hesbollah etc"

You implied that condemning israel for this attack = support for the attacks of their targets

This is a common tactic I encounter. As if any condemnation of Israel's behavior by default means that one is siding with terrorists like Hamas and Hezbollah. This is simply false.

The way I see it, both sides of this conflict are engaging in evil behavior and tactics.

Your disgusting willingness to equate a targeted attack on a terrorist organization intended to destabilize and demoralize that organization, to indiscriminate and ongoing attacks targeting civilian population centers and intended to terrorizes and demoralizes that population, reduces you to little more than an apologist for such organizations.
Let's not pretend as if all these explosive didn't go off in civilian population centers.
