    “If Israel didn’t exist there would be no people fighting against the existence of Israel” … What the Fuck?

    What kind of role reversal is that blaming October 7. on the “occupation” seriously? I’m not saying Israels government didn’t have a hand in creating adversity and Terrorism by suppressing the Palestinian people but to claim the horrific massacres were there fault is just plain evil.

      75 years of active apartheid, violence, and genocidal warfare will eventually lead to the oppressed to act in any manner possible

      Funny to me how Americans get hard over imaginary struggle stories but condemn the Palestinian resistance

      Oh booo fucking hoooo, they took hostages, well removed. Those hostages are European colonization settlers on THEIR land. If it was Chinese occupying America you would do much much worse than anything Palestinian resistance groups (incl Hamas) ever did on Oct 7.

        Reminds me of South Africa during the apartheid period. Resistance groups always arise when people are oppressed, and they may go to extremes.

        1. Not an American but sure fight the strawmen.

        2. To say all the hostages are European Settlers is just such a false view of the facts. A lot of these people weren’t settlers. And to assume they are “European” (by which I assume you mean White) is also wrong. There are Jews (and Arabs) that live (and have lived) in this region for centuries, also there is a huge population of Jews that are black or general POC.

      Yeah, how can we blame the people who oppressed a minority for close to a century for fighting back??? That’s just insanity!!1!
