      Yes. One of my sources state that. You see I’m not cherry picking. I’m taking a variety of sources to try to make some sense of this shit show.

      So. Fair. Beheading is particularly graphic violence. Is killing by bombing acceptable, then, because it’s not a human killing another with their own hands, because there’s indirection in between, through fighter planes and the explosives?

      It should all be unacceptable, I believe we agree. I acknowledge the violence of this week’s attack, but I also acknowledge the Israeli violence before and after this week’s attack.

      What’s the objective way to look at this? Maybe is the onion’s. https://www.theonion.com/the-onion-stands-with-israel-because-it-seems-like-yo-1850922505

          It would, but it’s not really objective since it was also established through military force. Either way, it’s allowing for one of peoples to use military strength and not another.
