For obvious reasons, I cannot endorse Hamas’s firing projectiles at residential centers in Israel. But if is wrong to terrorize Israeli noncombatants into changing their government’s outrageous anti-Palestinian policies, then it must also be wrong for Israel and the United States to terrorize noncombatants into changing their rulers’ policies, which those countries routinely do through sanctions and other, explicitly military ways.
One morality–one set of individuals rights–for all!
