    Ah yes, that makes it so much better. It’s a shame it ended in the deaths of 32 innocent people.

    And would you prefer I had specified the PLO in that post? A major power in the area?

      It seems the death of the hostages was accidental so yeah? I don’t defend intentional murder of innocents but anti-colonial resistance has a lot of moral leeway when it comes to accidental deaths.

        I don’t think you get to call the killings an accident when they went there to kidnap a bunch of people. If I break into someone’s house to kidnap a woman and I end up shooting her husband, that doesn’t make it any less a murder.
