Israel is not the best country by far. It is just as corrupt as western nations and has its bad sides.
However, it is the sanctuary of the Middle East. It is the only truly prosperous country in the Middle East.
In fact, a lot of the pro-Palestinian journalists, actually live in Israel, constantly contradicting themselves.
Whatever the case may be, no matter how unequal Israel may have been, it is no justification for Hamas (a terrorist organization) to go into Israel, and slaughter thousands of innocent non-military Israelis, as well as Arab Israelis, and visiting American citizens. Not only were they slaughtered, but they were brutally de-humanized. Some of the things that happened on October 7th, is worse than what the Nazi's did to the Jews.
Babies were put in ovens and burned alive in front of their parents.
Little girls and women were raped and dismembered as well as disemboweled.
Boys were forced to shoot their own families.
And let's not forget the kidnapping that happened with toddlers, infants, and children, as well as many adults, and American citizens.
And even after all of that, the idea that the Palestinian people are now suffering because of Israels retaliation, is a blatant lie.
Hamas has had, and still does, have the chance to let Palestinian civilians leave the war zone. Instead, they have actually been caught killing their own people from attempting to migrate to the south of the Gaza strip.
Hamas makes its military and rocket bases under Palestinian hospitals, colleges, and elementary schools, but they don't stop the progress of these institutions. They literally use these children and adults as human shields from Israels retaliation from this attempted genocide.
In fact, Israel has done the complete opposite of Hamas, and actually attempted to help the Palestinian people, by sending warnings on devices, sending warning bombs that shake buildings, cutting off water in the North, and letting it run in the South, in order to draw people away from the war zone.
And Israel has actually held back when it comes to military power. If Israel truly wanted to, they could destroy, and carpet bomb the entire Gaza strip tomorrow, but they don't because they value human life.
So, all that to say:
Israel is ultimately justified in this conflict.
