    You dodged the question. When the IDF is attacking and murdering Palestinians, do those Palestinians have a right to take up arms and fight back? It’s a simple yes or no question.

      Some questions cannot be fairly answered with a simple yes or no, like, “Have you stopped beating your wife?”

      There’s a lot of bias packed into your question. If the IDF is in fact MURDERING, as in, illegally killing people, yes they do. However, if the IDF is acting within the law they absolutely do not. Either way, I’d say it’s probably a bad move to do so and likely to get one shot.

        I’m talking about right now. For example, for the people in Rafah. Do the Palestinians in Rafah have the right to fight back against the IDF that is shelling them and attacking their homes with tanks?

          The real question is “are they people to you” and he’ll reply it’s not so simple

          No, that’s a legal attack on Hamas. If they take up arms they are defending Hamas as a militant.

              As if those are the only two options. Refugees in Rafah are evacuating, very few are being blown up or becoming militants.
