Description

Lay it all out on the table for me. Say why you support one side, I’ll say why I support the other. I don’t mind if you get nasty or even call me names, just understand that I will regardless. Looking foward!

Reason:

Pro argues that the actions of Hamas justify an Israeli response, as well as a pro-Zionist argument, using the Bible as a source to argue that the Palestinians have no right to the land in which they live. Whatever the merits of the latter argument, Con's responses were nearly incomprehensible. One can gather that Con is arguing that Israel is a settler-colonial project which has committed many atrocities. But Pro made the more coherent argument, used actual data points rather than just opinion, and did a better job responding to Con's points. That, plus the alarming level of grammar from the other side, gives the debate to Pro.
