I watch the photos of children, babies, reunited with their parents after being abducted with deadly violence and held almost 2 months by armed strangers, and people wonder why I am angry at the people who say Hamas was “justified” in terrorist actions.

Hamas has committed, and is committing war crimes (abduction of children, rape of prisoners, etc) and that has never, ever, given anyone moral high ground.

Nothing can justify what they did. They are scum.

@LAGilman The real problem is that there is no high ground here. Hamas it's made up of terrorists and have engaged in terrorist activities, exactly the same activities that Israel has used against them.

@wbpeckham I decline to get into "whose sins are worse" arguments online, particularly with people I don't know.
