    their brethren [in Gaza]

    I would have thought that if somebody is your “brethren” and your military is attacking them - you beg and pled for it to stop. Maybe you even riot. What you don’t do - is find the spots with the best view of Gaza, take out lawn chairs, start the Israeli equivalent of a tailgate party, and cheer was you watch your military destroy your brethren’s homes, maim your brethren, and kill your brethren. But I guess Israeli customs are impossible to understand for many.

      That’s the part that gets me. It’s one (huge, unconscionable) thing to inter an entire population, but it’s a whole other thing to break out the chairs and watch the ongoing illegal genocide or, I don’t know, throw a music festival nearby, but I’m just not familiar with their customs.
