Why not paint the full picture
Reader comment on item: Debating the Morality of Israel & Hamas in Battle
in response to reader comment: I am a bit lost here
Submitted by Ariel Liebman (Australia), Jul 15, 2014 at 04:49
Hi Daniel,
I am wondering why you didn't challenge the fuller picture of what the consequences of Israel not responding to the rocket attacks and allowing continued attacks without any response. This relates to Hamas' dream of destroying Israel and the logical conclusion of how similar the west bank would be if Israel would withdraw from there as well.
I can imagine some answers but I'd be interested in your thoughts.
