First, I have no clue who deserves death or not. I just feel no sympathy for these lost lives. I won't feel any sympathy or regret if more Israeli government officials die.

Israel and the US government paint campus protestors as terrorists. They are going to continue painting any resistance to the genocide as terrorism.

We have no idea what this accomplished. You sound like the compromising liberals MLK Jr criticized. Oh, we just have to protest a little more civilly next time and avoid inconveniencing people. If this strikes fear in Israeli officials, sounds like a win to me

its a sensible take on these sort of matters but maybe not for israel. current israel is not only committing a genocide in plain view of the world but is also targeting any criticism against it with a very disgusting mo.

• they have been killing journalists in gaza and westbank for decades so that idf brutality and murder of families by settlers has no evidence.

• they kill even pregnant women and children for fun not as some human shield or collateral

• they specially target hospital, medics and doctors so the injured die painfully while their relatives watch helplessly. this is a level of planned evil that goes way beyond warcrime and genocide

• they seem to be dictating narrative on every msm. even forums like reddit is completely crippled by their bots. just see the difference in voting pattern on world news from 2 years ago

• they have complete control of our political system on both red and blue side. now we all know much the shameless scum biden did to restrain israel. current dnc chairman schumer has publicly said that his top priority is always to keep the left pro-israel.

• peaceful protests not just in us but around the world have been targeted by them in violent ways. any criticism of genocide has resulted in immediate loss of employment for some of the most intelligent people working at google and microsoft.

israel was founded by people who butchered entire villages and raped little girls for days. since then settler movement has attracted people across the world who are proud of murdering a family and taking their home. they supply spyware and weapon to most violent dictators in the world.

i really don’t think there is a peaceful alternative to control something this evil and elaborate. this is not going to stop at gaza. the ultra rich who are mostly at the head of israeli lobby will use this very formula of violence and propaganda against the working class. to some extent its already started, we all saw how luigi is branded a terrorist for allegedly taking out a mass murderer and how anything positive related to him is suppressed everywhere. the ongoing ice raids.

The staffers helped murder 5 million people.

Bush, Cheney, Rove, Rumsfeld, they don't actually do anything. They order people around, but the ones doing the legwork are their staffers.

If the lives of people are less valuable to them than their own jobs, well, maybe their life ain't worth shit either.

How involved does one need to be to be complicit?

We can probably agree that the local embassy security staff didn't have a hand in these atrocities, but do the intelligence officers staffed there? The schmoozers working to ensure unwavering US support? The ambassador himself?

Keeping in mind everyone's interpretation of complicity is different, I agree this probably wasn't the best move available, but I won't criticize it further than that.
