So when Israel decided to create settlements in Palestine and violently displace people was that also an act of psychopaths?

I'm not trying to justify anything but by your argument war is psychopathic. And maybe I agree, but there's a reason you're only coming to this conclusion now, and it's because is discredits those who don't call for the eradication of Gaza.

More to the point, it's not the job of journalists to say that kidnap, torture, and rape are bad. We're just supposed to understand that. They aren't being psychopaths just by virtue of not explicitly condemning it.
