some arcane feud
I think people have been led, deliberately, to believe it’s a lot more arcane and/or complicated than it really is. Israel is just a bog-standard settler-colonial project.

This is heartbreaking. The Israeli people supporting this disgust me. They have no justification for targeting and killing all these people due to some arcane feud.
I’s listening to Podsave the World, his description of a little girl sitting traumatised after a bombing, then starting to bleed profusely from her nose, and the realisation that these were her final moments…
This is disgusting, and i’m ashamed of my general friendliness to Israel in the past. They deserve none.
Others who support, or commit similar crimes disgust me as well.

I’m not really there with that description. It emphasises a pillar of the feuds over others. But I suppose you could argue the same of my initial description.
I intended it to encompass that, but i suppose arcane isn’t really seen as 20th Century inclusive.
But none of it really matters while the medieval destruction of these people continues.
That was my point denigrating the description of their superficial reasoning to ‘arcane feuds’. Any reasons for the conflict no longer have meaning against its barbarity.
If peace ever comes there is no justice that can be metered out, no reparations that would satisfy. The Israeli state is doing to another peoples something akin to what the Nazi State did to the Jewish Europeans, and other marginalised groups.
I know i’m not informing anyone of anything new here, sorry.

Same here. I used to think they were the good guys. Just shows what a diet of selected (and directed) media does. Any sympathy I had for them is long gone.
