Is it justified to commit warcrimes against civilians, because you’ve had warcrimes committed against you?
You want to go and lecture people suffering colonial genocide how to resist said colonial genocide in a way that doesn't discomfort you?
Be my guest... hell, if you take a shipment of 7.62x39 with you, they might even have a reason to listen to you.
I would gladly stand in opposition to that, too.
A bit late for that, don't you think? Just like it's a bit late to "stand in opposition" when this particular colonial genocide began all the way back in 1949.
Wanna know one thing that it's never too late for? Questioning why you have been drenched in narratives surrounding Hamas's "crimes" (real, perceived and/or invented) while you have zero context regarding the long, long list of atrocities committed by Israel since 1949 nor the even larger atrocities committed by Israel's western backers - you know... the same backers that are drenching you in these narratives?
It's never too late to figure out who it is that is manipulating you - and why.
Nahh... if Jesus was here, he'd take a holy flamethrower to this shit. Israel wouldn't be first on the list (that would be the Roman Catholic Church), but it would be up there.
Riiiight... that's why the medieval Islamic world was a safe-haven for Jewish communities for hundreds of years - because "their holy book" told them to do genocide. You know... like Christendom was doing?
After I pull an Israel on them, it won't matter... they won't be allowed to speak either French or Dutch in the small ghetto I'll be forcing them into.
That and the outright censorship you see escalating all over the western world points to one thing - the massive failure of the western propaganda model itself.
I’m trying to work out why the US is sending an arms package to Israel.
Because, despite the hundreds of billions in murder-toy allowance the US has given Israel, the Palestinians have pretty much proved with this latest attack that it's not enough to secure the normalization of the kapo regime's existence.
I'm getting Tet offensive vibes from all this... and the fact that the US is quickly shoving large naval units into the area just strengthens it.
Why am I actually responding to a comment that is saying muslims don’t want to exterminate Jews.
Let me guess... you're a product of the US education system?
You don't have the foggiest idea of the history you are feigning expertise in here, do you?
Sure the liberal ones don’t, but wtf?
What "liberals," Clyde? The only Palestinian "liberals" you will find are the corrupt lapdog racketeers "managing" the West Bank at the behest of Israel. If Hamas takes them out, very few Palestinians will lose any sleep over it... and rightly so.
but that freedom should not come at the cost of committing war crimes themselves.
What do you think this is? Star Wars? What did you think anti-colonialist warfare is really like in real life? It's messy - did you really think that the French Resistance during WW2 only killed Nazis? The Allies themselves slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians, yet I don't see too many people "both-siding" that conflict.
And btw... Palestinians were minding their own business until Israel (and it's western enablers) clocked in.
If you think Gandhi was bad, you should look into Mother Theresa - the woman was literally a Disney cartoon villain.
