: I know it's hard, but IMHO we may *understand*, but should never openly *agree* with violence.
One of many reasons is that the attacker may erroneously believe the victim to be their enemy.
I do fully understand the desparate, turned-into-monsters, Hamas-members who committed the Oct. 7 atrocities. But at the same time I *do* condemn those actions.
Hamas may see no other way, but history has clearly revealed that their violence did not help the Palestinians (see https://infosec.exchange/@ErikvanStraten/112517465690957662).
Democracies will turn into anarchies if they don't have fair judges who do their jobs.
We do not deserve respect if we do not respect others; violence never solves problems.
