Why are you ignoring previous Iranian attacks on Israel?
Do Israel’s “previous” attacks on Palestine justify the Palestinians attacking Israel in the present or future, more or less out of nowhere, if they feel like it?
Can you explain to me how a pogrom can ever be justified? Because that was what Palestinian terrorists did on October 7, under the applause of a worrying number of people. It was the kind of pogrom Jews have been experiencing for millennia.
I don't at all think attacks on innocent Israelis are justified, no. I think the perpetrators of October 7th should get what's coming to them and are most likely destined for hell.
I'm pointing out that your logic would justify sudden attacks on Israel or the US by the Palestinians -- say, on October 6th if they had bombed the embassy and killed some generals and some random civilians -- because of "previous."
