I agree. It is not just Netanyahu (who has actually supported Hamas in the past as a counterweight to other factions) and arms coming from the US, but also Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran and Qatar as their financial sponsor. All are turning a blind to the collateral damage from their conflict.
None of them represent the people of Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon, the vast majority of whom are innocent pawns being victimized in a strategic battle for control over the Mideast. Nor does Netanyahu represent the majority of people in Israel. The people in the US who are completely safe and sound and so glibly and confidently talking about right and wrong have little if any empathy for the people who are suffering the most. People like diabetics with no access to their medicine, innocent children who have no place to live, and so on and so on..
This is more than a board game where everyone is fine when it is over. The overwhelming number of people who are getting killed are entirely innocent and don't support any of the sides. They just want to stay alive..
