Some critics accused the Israeli government—and especially far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir—of enabling settler attacks by handing out thousands of military assault rifles to settlement residents.
“As it drops bomb after bomb on Palestinians in Gaza, Israel is giving 1000s of machine guns to extremist Israelis, including settlers in the Palestinian West Bank. There have already been reports of Israeli settlers using the weapons to attack every Palestinian they see,” the California-based Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU) said on social media Thursday.
You’re being quite generous to call that “logic.”

The average age of Palestinians in Gaza is 19. The last election was when they were 2 years old so saying the majority of ~2 million people support a group of 30-40k people in their midst that haven’t been voted on in their lifetime is kinda ridiculous.
What to expect is not to have collective punishment of anyone who is a Palestinian for the crimes of the minority. Punishing 100% of the population for 1-2% of them who are actual criminals.
By this logic, that means Hamas did nothing wrong because Israelis support their government. 🤔
