      It’s like a prison riot. You have to fight back knowing that you will be crushed again, but if you don’t Israel will just continue the slow slaughter of Palestinians.

      If you can try to get some breathing room and make it painful to the other side you can hope Israel will someday stop.

        Has there every been a prison that had to shut down and release all the prisoners due to continious riots? It just doesn’t seem like a strategy that can actually work.

          The difference is that the comparison shouldn’t happen because Gaza is not actually a prison so the people in it aren’t prisoners they are civilians with militants mixed in because there is no way out.

          If Israel didn’t oppress and let the people live their lives, then perhaps they wouldn’t lash out with these rocket attacks.

      The lack of serious responses shows how ignorant people here are to this issue (even though many speak about it confidently).

      The way I see it, Hamas is trying to elicit a disproportionate response from Israel in order to jeopardize recent normalization efforts.

            Clearly you don’t understand what the term “apartheid” means, nor why Israel has been called an “apartheid” state for decades.

            Also the irony of you telling two South Africans “that they have no clue what they’re talking about”.

                I’m no South African, but you’re a useful idiot for the ruling class if you are so ready to dismiss the voices of minoritized groups, i.e. the ones who don’t have the media reach to tell you what to think.

            It’s not a buzzword, it is apartheid. South Africans who have fought against apartheid and suffered under it agree, that Israel is an apartheid state. I know because I have I have talked to them. If you can’t agree with that, there is no use having a conversation.
