The media in the west has always supported Israel, so you never heard anything negative about them. You cannot blame someone who could have had no prior knowledge of it and tell them they are the reason Israel had free reign, that's crazy talk. Anyone standing against what they are doing now or in the past is a good thing. Did you even know until the last couple years? Until the attack happened? If so, why weren't you being vocal and active about it? I could flip it on the head and say you are the reason Israel have had this free reign, because you knew and didn't tell us.
