"But that doesn't change the fact that the present situation is imho primarily the result of West's one-sided support of Israel. "
Come on. Imagine it was New Zealand getting smashed by someone else? You know we would do whatever we could to help them including welcoming them to come here if needed.
How many Arab states are reaching out to help their Palestinian neighbours? How many are offering them immigration/refugee places? Answer: None! Egypt has even locked the border to keep them all in (to get smashed) and wont even consider allowing the severely injured to get treatment in their hospitals.
This just shows that its 0% about concern/pity/compassion for Palestinians and 100% about intolerance and hatred of the Jews and the more Palestinians that get killed the better - because that provides an excuse to kill more Jews! If the Jews were all gone, they would be fighting each other - same same.
Israel has a right to defend itself against a hostile enemy state. War is war.
You wouldn't start a war unless you thought you will win. So, we have to assume that the masterminds behind the massacre have a plan to wipe Israel off the map. So, expect things to get worse (a lot worse) before things gets better.
