And you can point to decades of Israeli provocations, attacks, and invasions.
The rocket attacks were justified by pointing to the Israeli invasion of southern Lebanon in 1978.
If Israel can't take a few rocket attacks, then they shouldnt have lit the invasion fuse.
But to be clear, I dont believe any of this is a valid justification. The logic of both sides is the logic of terrorist sympathizers justifying their war crimes.
Please stop sympathizing for Israeli terror.
Yes not everything is down to ecominics, the bombs and bullets are probably a more significant factor. Being unable to feed your family is bad, burying your family is worse.
And yes, the middle class Afghanis can't put up a fight for many reasons, one of which is that they largely stopped existing. The moment they are locked out of their personal and business savings, they become poor desperate Afghanis.
Can you explain your disagreement or argument? I dont understand what you are getting at, and "elaborate on pre-2001 afghanistan" is a very broad topic.
