CNN’s Wolf Blitzer seemed at a lost of words at the justification being used to bomb a refugee camp in Gaza.

    You’ve got it backwards. Israel has never been the victim in this conflict. There’s almost a century now of Israel oppressing Palestine to take their land. Hamas is just responding to Israel. If Israel backed the fuck off this would all go away. Or at least it would have; not so sure if anyone in Palestine will let Israel be after what they’ve been doing in October…

      Israel has never been the victim in this conflict.

      You have to be fucking kidding me.

      Both sides have been victims of their respective leaderships for decades.

      The Palestinians have been victims of the Zionists, especially the religious right with their illegal settlements.

      The Israelis have been victims of the Islamic terrorists, currently led by Hamas, whose explicit goal is to eradicate every Jew.

      You can’t seriously look at this conflict and ignore half the story.
