Executions, rape, and the suffering of civilians are all vile elements of the ongoing Israel and Hamas conflict. This is an issue that requires tenderness and caution, all while requiring grit and animosity. The civilians of both Israel and Palestine are in urgent need of support and it is unwise to avoid a subject with such gravity at hand. The Israel and Hamas conflict has a plentiful history detailing past outbursts of violence, unjust treatment of civilians, and the endangerment of human life. All of these factors must be considered when evaluating this conflict, and in ignorance of neutrality – above all else, we must be on the side of the civilians.
