Daily Signal: 'Moral Equivalence' Is Either Moral Confusion or Hatred of Israel
The moral equivalence argument used in the Israeli-Arab conflict is flawed. Claiming that Palestinian babies are as precious as Israeli babies is meaningless because no one has ever disputed this notion. It is used as a way to attack Israel and its supporters. Additionally, condemning the "cycle of violence" instead of specifically condemning Hamas for the wars they start is an immoral description of the issue. Without violence from Palestinians, there would be no cycle of violence.

Spectator USA: How to be honest about Israel-Palestine
The situation in Israel triggers strong emotions and debates over what should be said or left unsaid. There are arguments for condemning both Hamas and Israel, but it's difficult to find a clear way through the complexity and violence. The moral calculus and strategic calculations are unclear, leaving us with a field of grays. Killing innocent civilians is evil, but the recognition of this evil doesn't justify displacement and more deaths. Silence may be the only honest response.
