    Every one of those 1400 dead of theirs took part in a system built to destroy Arabs and take their lands

    It’s pretty fucking wild that your brain can hold that thought…that 1400 Israelis were somehow complicit in their own murder…and also the thought that the Gazans are nothing but sweet, innocent victims without any agency.

      I think they were referring to the compulsory military service. So yes, they’re all, at one point or another, part of the Israeli genocide machine

      Are the Gazans sweet and innocent? I couldn’t care less if they are. They’re the oppressed, and liberation always takes drenching the enemy of the people with so much of their own blood they cannot continue to oppress you.

        Just because they’re at the losing end of asymmetrical warfare doesn’t make them the good guys. They started wars against Israel twice and lost. They have been indiscriminately attacking civilians for the last century and refusing to negotiate for viable peace, provoking responses. The consequences of belligerence should be obvious by now, they cannot hope to win this conflict militarily.

        liberation always takes drenching the enemy of the people with so much of their own blood they cannot continue to oppress you.

        Funny how that street doesn’t go both ways for you, Hamas’ violence and murders are fine but Israel are monsters for counterattacking in self-defense. I hope one day you can see your biases and if you were in their shoes I suspect you’d feel differently.
