> Another important distinction is that - no matter what your beliefs are - civilians aren't the target in Gaza

"No matter what your beliefs are"? Some people believe that Israel is trying to make the people in Gaza starve. If that was true, how would they not be a target?

With the amount of sanctions against Iran right now we could say that Iran is being starved as well, but we can't blame Israel for everything. Almost everyone participates in the sanctions but citizens aren't the target.

Funny that you say that, because the reason Iran is under sanctions is that Israel wanted it. Obama had agreed to a lift on the sanctions in exchange for a strict control on Iran's nuclear program; Trump and his cohort of rabid zionists remote controlled from Tel Aviv reneged on the agreement and restored the sanctions.

Everything that happens it the world is because Israel was secretly behind it. Right?

Do you not understand cause and effect? You think Netanyahu said Iran is trying to build nukes, then the world sanctioned Iran, then they started trying to build nukes? Is that what you're saying?

Also, you think Iran is only sanctioned because of their nuclear weapons program?
