    Ah, so now we’ve gone from “it’s not an invasion” to “they did it first.”

    I said that several comments ago.

    I said: “But even if you want to consider a balloon an invasion, the South still invaded first when it aerial dropped propaganda.”

    My first response to you was about how North Korea was acting in response to what South Korea did first.

      And my first response to you is that both would be invasions by your own logic.

      But let’s also look at your “they did it first, therefore they are in the wrong” argument:

      Hamas has been around since 1987 and has been firing rockets into Israel the entire time. Even if that doesn’t count, based on an agreed criteria that a balloon that has the ability to be used as a weapon counts as an invasion, Hamas used incendiary balloons on Israel in 2018.

      Therefore, based on your logic, Israel was in the right to invade Gaza, what with Gaza being under Hamas control at the time.

      Do you believe Israel was in the right?
