Matt, it does serve one powerful purpose: propaganda. Some people say Israel can do whatever it wants because it's defending itself against rocket attacks. Oth

Matt, it does serve one powerful purpose: propaganda. Some people say Israel can do whatever it wants because it's defending itself against rocket attacks. Other people claim that the Israeli state is a murderous organization that should be eliminated. The truth is, we do not know if anyone was firing rockets from the building where this guy's son was. I suppose someone was, which is unfortunate. We don't have footage from the airstrike. We do not know why the building was hit. To cut a long story short, we know very little. The fog of war prevents us from seeing things clearly, so we should be careful before jumping to radical conclusions. Everyone who was killed in Gaza (and unfortunately far too many have been killed already) was someone's son or daughter. This kind of article seems to me as cheap exploitation of the deceased for someone's political gain. It's a bit nauseating, IMHO.
