If my country was being attacked by any country or non-governmental group I'd step 0 ask "Why did this happen? Did we fuck with them or are they doing this to get our resources, etc.?" Note that none of the possible answers are "Because they are barbarians!" or "They hate our freedoms!"
And as an American (or Brit, Canadian, Australian, New Zealander and basically just circles Western Europe the EU and yeah no shit Israel) I wouldn't need to wonder for long because if any country on earth "deserves" attacks as in "has done things that warrant retaliation," well, there's two top contenders and one did get attacked last year. And all things considered, the specific crimes of Israel, although horrific, are small when compared to the magnitude of evil the US and British empires.
So, if I were in a commonwealth nation or the USA, I'd probably shut the fuck up trying to use this moronic defense.
