Palestinians are responsible

As Israel continues its fight to destroy the terrorist Hamas group, the northern Gaza Strip has been bombarded to destroy terrorist infrastructure, and the southern Gaza Strip effort is now beginning. As we know, Hamas embeds itself among civilian populations, and builds its infrastructure within and below civilian buildings, in violation of international rules of war. The most common argument I hear from progressive, leftist Jew haters, such as the Oakland City Council, about why they demand a ceasefire in Israel’s war against Hamas is, “Why should innocent Palestinians bear the brunt of Hamas’ actions when the Palestinians are not responsible?” On the surface, this seems like a humanitarian argument. But it’s not and here’s why.
