The Israeli line when they blow up buildings where innocent civilians are and get killed, is always . . . there was a Bad Guy in there, and we gloriously killed him!

Always the same line. Bad guy dead, collateral damage, who cares about the other deaths?
Those in Palestine and in countries nearby, how do they feel? Agree with Israel or just more determined to destroy Israel?

Israel general messaging: We are the Good Guys here!
Way too glib for my liking.
Their words and actions do not match.

Indeed, a never ending cycle.
Stop the carnage, stop the war!
