Please don't call it massacre. That word is only used for the indiscriminate mass-killing of uninvolved civilians. These are combatants attacking a free country, they had it coming. So while bloody, it somehow puts it on a level with the atrocities committed by Hamas four weeks ago, and it definitely is not the same. Put another way, a massacre is never justified; attacking anyone who invaded your country, is.
I disagree, but I'll change it.
Thanks. The point in my eyes is, if you massacre, (or slaughter) people that implies that they were innocent, which would make the act evil. And I'd hate for the legitimate attacks on the aggressor to be seen as evil. Because they are not. Just my opinion.
