The problem with saying "both" is that there are 5 groups involved, maybe even 6.
I'd agree that "both" are bad if you mean the Israeli government and Hamas, though to different degrees at different times. I'd agree "both" are victims if you mean the Israeli and Palestinian peoples, though undoubtedly the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are the most victimized right now and in general.
Ah sorry, just made a comment outlining the parties that I am talking about lol, clearly stating it’s Hamas and the Israeli government
Do you also make this distinction between the government of nazi germany and the citizens of nazi germany?
Absolutely.
Yeah, don't you? Same with every other government. They are rarely a good representation of their people.
