@ASLAN @Zeuro Kids, let me lend my expertise as a voice of reason to ease the tension. It's what I do.
For the pro-Palestinians, what better way to get media attention then to take their protest to Jewish-owned business. It's what they want. On the other hand, how appropriate would it be for pro-Israelis to target a Palestinian-owned business?
Taking a broader look, Hamas which is largely (but not entirely) supported by the Palestinians conducted a terrorist raid on a peaceful Israeli music festival and then took hostages back to their enclave where they purposefully hide within the crowded civilian population. Understanding human behaviour (like I do), it's not that hard to understand why Israel is taking the stand that they are. On the other hand though, indiscriminate killing of civilians (that now include some of the Israeli hostages) can't be swiped away as justified without also considering the inhumanity of it. Again, relying on human behaviour, it is easy enough to resort to name-calling to support either side. Human behaviour though is not always productive, sane, or humane.
Terrorism can't be allowed to become part of established society. Civilian killing to stop terrorism can't be tolerated either. And, choosing one side or the other with name-calling is hardly a solution.
