The idea of productive discourse went out the window when you decided to replay 2003. Your trust is entirely with Israel and media sources that cite the IDF uncritically.

LOL, yeah, sure, I trust Israel. This entire conflict is their fault. They are the oppressors, and they held all the cards required to make a better future. Ultimately they are at fault for the deaths on both sides. This discussion is just about the details of a particular incident.

You are literally parroting the Israeli line verbatim subject to no critical thought whatsoever.
