I like how Americans are treated like some special class. As if the US hasn’t had collateral damage in their attacks that harm citizens of other countries. The US just uses it as a very weak reason to get more involved…

Germany, France and Spain also have killed and kidnapped citizens. Their newspapers are reporting similar stories on their citizens, which is the reason the EU froze all the humanitarian aid to Palestine.

And those numbers will go up. All those hostages are not Israeli

Like the WTC this is truly an international incident.

You may wish to rephrase that...

It's technically true either way, but yeah that doesn't read well and definitely wasn't the intent.

I agree, it is technically true. Sorry if I sounded too nitpicking, I've just come back from a week with no internet access /news so for a moment I thought you were talking about all of them doing it during the events of the last few days!
