Oh, dear. I think Ben is a bit confused.

“With what audacity do you compare Hamas that murdered, burned, butchered, decapitated, raped and kidnapped our brothers and sisters and the IDF soldiers fighting a just war.”

Well, I’m not sure we have any ironclad evidence of rape and kidnap against civilians by the IDF but we can definitely check-off “murdered, burned, butchered and decapitated” – it’s on the news every day. That’s how I’d compare them.

Whether you regard this as “just” or not is a matter of perspective but the actions of Hamas and the IDF are entirely comparable.
