    I’d rather be in the West Bank than Gaza right now so whatever Fatah does or doesn’t do, it’s way better than what Hamas caused in Gaza.

        An argument could be made that Hamas’ actions in Israel provoked Israel’s reaction in Gaza.

        Which provoked Hamas’ actions in Israel…

        Which provoked Israel’s reaction in Gaza…

        Lather, rinse, repeat back to the beginning of Israel and Gaza.

          I actually prefer forgetting about all the history. It provides some context, but really, it doesn’t matter. I’ve learned a lot about the history in the last four months and it changes absolutely nothing about this Genocide.

          Even if Hamas did the literal Holocaust, it wouldn’t give israel the right to mass murder uninvolved Palestinians, especially since there’s no acute danger. We didn’t mass murder all Germans after WW2 either.

            In Dresden fire bombings, about as many people died in a single bombing operation spanning about 2 days as have died in the Gaza war so far. Note that Gaza’s population density is roughly 10x Dresden’s current population density.

            And the Gaza war hasn’t ended yet.

            Israel and other countries were literally letting huge amounts of money into Gaza. With that amounts of money, they could have built second Dubai in there.

            Also, if the blockade is so terrible, how can they still have rockets to shoot at Israel?
