MongCorrect, but Oct 7th greatly improves the IDF's justification to bomb Palestine, which is why the attacks have ramped up massively after Oct 7th. All Hamas/Palestine have to do is not needlessly kill innocents and not bomb Israel for a few years to prove they are not violent barbarians and the whole world (or the only place that matters geopolitically, the US) will greatly improve their stance towards them and might even find a solution for this conflict. This is impossible for them.
This doesn't really make sense. This conflict has been ongoing for years. It didn't start at one point, you need to look at the whole, not just one date to justify abhorrent acts of a nation towards innocent civilans. Also, can you justify these sorts of acts? You say it "improves" the justification, but how can you improve the justification of something that is unjustifiable? It still remains as unjust as it was before.
If someone started attacking me in my own home, I'm going to fight back. If I just sit there and take it then I should expect to be homeless and beaten into the dirt, dieing. Surely it is a natural reaction to defend what you believe is yours and also your life? Sitting doing nothing to improve political standing will do nothing but kill them.
