I'll be honest. After the initial Hamas attack I also thought Israeli response was acceptable. I didn't know much of anything beyond Zionist propaganda. I learned the truth and now I can say with absolute certainty and conviction that Israel is an aggressor in more than just the Palestinian conflict(which is a genocide). It's hard to know you're in a propaganda bubble when the edge is on the other side of the world. But now that I know it's there, it's absolutely influencing my decisions in elections. I voted against an AIPAC candidate in the Democratic primary entirely because of their campaign funding sources.
