History did not start on 7 October. But as the world stops to mourn it will for ever be a reminder of whose lives matter.
Lost your faith in humanity? Or Americans?

Really need to figure out how to filter keywords in Lemmy. I swear every second article I see is a variation of, 'WAI IS NO1 TALKING ABOUT ISRAEL!?!?!?"

You’re right. It didn’t start on Oct 7th. There was a cease fire in place. Then Hamas broke the cease fire, killed over a thousand civilians, kidnapping more, and then hid behind women and children like the cowardly bastards they are. Hamas can go fuck themselves, and so can everyone who supports them.
Pro-tip: Gaza is 99% Sunni Muslim. They are an ethnostate. Israel is only 73.2% Jews, and has people and politicians of all three Abrahamic religions. Gaza criminalizes lgbtq people, and oppressed women. Israel has gay pride parades and women have equal rights.
Why do you think Hamas are the good guys? What conceivable quality do you like about them?

Who are you talking to? The author of the article literally said “I condemn Hamas” three times in the second paragraph.

You expect me to read obvious propaganda? It’s just Palestine playing the victim. Again. Because they’re cowardly bastards.

Nice genocide evasion script you got going there.

Idk that script was really convincing. I now thing that little baby Hind deserved to die, along with all those other kids. She lived in an ethno state so, what were the Israelis to do besides ruthlessly murder her?

I don’t know what you think genocide is, but I consider genocide to be “the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group” like with the Holocaust or with Hamas’s attempting genocide of Israel.
What do you consider genocide to be?

Abused a dog for years and now acts surprised that the dog bit them back. I don’t support HAMAS or the government of Israel. Both countries have a right to coexist peacefully. Given the history of the Israel/Palestine debacle it is hardly surprising that a group promising to destroy Israel is/was popular with a group of people oppressed by Israel. Similarly, with the election of the current Israeli government who seem to be elected to eliminate HAMAS and protect settlements in the west bank.
Let me make something crystal clear. All lives have equal worth. On October 7th ~1,200 Israeli civilians were killed, since then >40,000 Palestinian civilians. Surely no cause is worth killing civilians over. How do you justify that Israel is the good guy?
