    Sure, US policy in Middle East was far from ideal, but example given in article for US massive bombardments were about fight with ISIS. I do not think you can get moral ground by criticizing that. ISIS should have been fought and exterminated.

    Yes there is parallel with what Israel is doing with Hamas. But use this analogy to think about that it is not as black and white as most people here pretend to be.

      Right now every participant in conflict has committed numerous crimes. There is ho moral high ground for anybody. Every side is lying through their teeth to achieve their goals. People of Israel and Palestine are dying while selected few in Israeli and Palestinians get richer and consolidate power in their hands. Both sides have been solidly brainwashed against each other. It’d take enormous effort to stabilize things. I have not seed anyone fitting the bill.
