any semblance to 'two sides of a story' in the past couple of days.

The horrors committed by Hamas (and they clearly are horrible, despicable and utterly inhumane) - have apparently short-circuited any need for mention of any transgression or contribution on the part of Israel. Expect to be shouted down shortly ..

and all I see is a rich, nuclear power bullying and oppressing some of the poorest people on the planet.

I don't see anything in the OP regarding defending Hamas.
