From what I can gather this conflict as been going on a long time and the Hamas group has existed for a while too. Why are all the news cycles suddenly focusing on this the past few weeks?

    Having “clear sides” doesn’t mean there’s a clear “right side” and “wrong side”, imo.

      The sides aren’t very clear when you start looking closer. And they’re both the wrong side of you think about it. The best side is the “wow that’s a shit show I’m glad I’m not involved with” side.

        I feel the same way when I see a game of American football, but I can still see that there are two sides.

        I don’t need to take a side to see that there are two distinct sides. Even if I disagree with aspects of both sides.

          American football is a game. It has two teams. There aren’t civilians on the field getting smashed to death because two groups want to fight over a dumb ball. The ball is Jerusalem. The fact that you reduced this down to a football game says a lot about your understanding of the situation.
