The original message makes it sounds like somehow before two years ago everything was fine with Gaza. That what Israel was doing in the 78 years prior to that was no issue. I want OP to expand on his or her thoughts.

Israel hasn't "gone too far" now... Israel was already going to far before that. If fast genocide was your redline as opposed to slower territorial expansion, seige warfare, and occupation... Yeah you're the reasonthis they've had free reign to take the situation to it's current inevitable consequence.

My bad. "Please expand" to me sounds like you're asking how they've gone too far in a possibly disbelieving manner similar to asking for a source.

You have to understand that not everyone was/is aware Israel's doings. The media in the west has always supported Israel, so you never heard anything negative about them. You cannot blame someone who could have had no prior knowledge of it and tell them they are the reason Israel had free reign, that's crazy talk. Anyone standing against what they are doing now or in the past is a good thing.

Did you even know until the last couple years? Until the attack happened?

If so, why weren't you being vocal and active about it? I could flip it on the head and say you are the reason Israel have had this free reign, because you knew and didn't tell us. See how dumb that sounds?

As a moderately informed person, yes I've been aware of this for decades.

And yes, thank you, I have been vocal and active since. How about you?

So informed, yet so blind. You completely missed the point.
