Just because they're incompetent doesn't mean they kill civilians on accident. It's pretty easy no to shoot someone surrendering, or an ambulance, or a child, or bomb a UN building, or read the word "press"

Mistakes are not mistakes when they are the status quo

Both sides can make the other their enemy.

In this case an enemy did find the Palestinians

Israel has no friends and yet historically receives the most military aid out of any country.

Also enemies are made not found

It all depends on how they spin it

Initially I had a similar view until I learned of the following 3 things:

  • Palestinians signing the Oslo after which the Israeli prime minister was assassinated by an Israeli ultranationalist.

  • The Palestinian government in the West Bank put down their weapons and still get attached by settlers and the IDF and imprisoned with essentially no rights.

  • The Israelis are literally murdering them by the hundreds

Also seems like these people are just protesting for peace and are saying so whatever we just want peace. Yet the title of the article doesn't focus on that

Dude you're misunderstanding this.

The French punishers can sue Facebook in the US for violating their copyright. But since Facebook also operates in France, they can sue them there. It's that simple.

Copyright law is pretty powerful and generally global. If you write a book in France in French, I can't translate and sell it in the US.

So the punishers can sue in the US but they'd probably not win. Facebook operating in France means it is subject to french laws and can be sued there.
