    Innocent people always suffer in war, maybe provoking an unwinnable one has consequences for others in your nation. Maybe some country shouldn’t invade its neighbor, slaughter and kidnap its civilians to avoid such retribution.

    Palestine at this point is a sickly rage-drunk inconsolable angry person at the bar, yelling about how their home got repossessed to build the establishment. In a rage they punch the bouncer in the face, and when the predictable beat-down occurs they plead, “Look what they’re doing to me! I’m being unfairly repressed! I have kids who will suffer because of this! This is systemic oppression! They made me do it!”

      Except in this case the bouncer shows up the next day in the drunk’s neighborhood and starts shooting up all the homes and kills a bunch of his neighbors and the newspapers call him a hero.
