I justify Palestinians defending themselves and revolting against their oppressors, I acknowledge their right resist, including armed resistance, but I do not think that civilian targets in any conflict are a good thing.
So long story short, I think Palestinians are fully within their right when they pursue armed resistance, but I condemn harming civilians, no matter the party doing it.
If they had to look at every petition they'd only be looking at them all day. It makes sense to only handle stuff that will impact a lot of people.
Is there anything similar in the USA?
