Can I smack you or nah?
Israel invaded Gaza with the sole purpose of destroying tunnels that Gaza terrorists use to travel to Israel to perform acts of terrorism against their civilians.
When some one attacks your home it is first nature to fight back.

Hmm how come of the 300 something people killed in Gaza 72% are civilians (according to the UN). Does that mean Israel is committing acts of terror on Palestinian citizens? You seem to adhere to the garbage Western Media. Good luck finding any real news from media outlets like BBC, CNN or RT.
The people of Gaza have been subject to a crippling trade embargo, limited area to fish for food and that essentially makes it a prison. Now I'm not saying Israel should just take the rocket fire (no one would) but they shouldn't go and kill innocent civilians by bombing one of the MOST DENSELY POPULATED REGIONS ON EARTH. It's madness. If only you knew how it is to live in Palestine. Opportunities are limited and freedom of movement doesn't exist. I've been to Palestine multiple times and was even held back from entering Jerusalem despite having an American passport. They held me back because I was a Palestinian.
Israelis aren't the victims.

The main purpose is to stop hamas but..
Hamas is a byproduct of the illegal occupation itself.
The palestinian people have been under oppression and apartheid since the beginning of Israel. If Canada took 75% of the United States there would be hillbillies firing rockets too.

good old bush made it clear, there is no in-between.
the difference is who's using the word. People are not going to call themselves terrorist, sounds evil, so they call themselves freedom fighters which sounds more patriotic and is not as negative.

Bush and Cheney led us into the Iraq war and caused the deaths of American troops and Iraqi Civilians. He's an idiot and anything he says shouldn't be taken seriously.
Judging by the good old bush I think you feel the same haha
