    The Palestinian government attacked their neighbor and took hostages. Their neighbor then stopped supplying Palestine with resources.

    It seems Israel is aiming for the best case scenario here, which is for the people of Palestine to overthrow the death cult that controls their state.

      Nice work ignoring the decades of conflict. It’s not like Israel has been stealing all the land they agreed to “allow” Palestinians have for the last 50+ years or anything, right?

        So you’re saying they’ve been giving food, water, and energy to people they have been enemies with for “decades”?

        That’s awful nice of them, but it doesn’t change the fact that declaring war is going to get those things taken away.

          … you really want to use that argument? “Giving them food, water and energy”? Like they’re prisoners?

            I guess Africa is the largest “open air prison”, then, since America has been giving them food, water, and energy?

            Did you even think before writing this zinger?

              I mean, if you want to go down that rabbit hole, you certainly can dig into centuries of imperialism and oppression in Africa by outside colonial powers.

      There’s pictures of the Israelis landing in palestine by boat 75 years ago begging for asylum, they never stuck to the border agreements over the years and continuously steal land and kill palestinians, Israelis are scum of the earth lowlife colonisers. End of story.

        They never stuck to the border agreements because for starters the surrounding arab countries (can’t say Palestine because it didn’t even exist as a country back then) refuse to acknowledge the borders and instead wanted to eradicate Israel. And for the first 30 years of after Israel was officially founded those same countries kept poking and prodding hoping to force them out in a similar fashion current day Israel does to Palestine. Is it really a wonder then that they treat Palestinians like dirt and ignore border agreements? It’s literally how they were historically treated.

        And this isn’t to defend Israel. Current day Israel is the reason Hamas exists and Israeli treatment of Palestinians (not just in Gaza) laid the foundation of the terror attack. What I’m pointing out is that there’s a clear circle of violence that has been perpetuated by generations on both side and this nuanceless “Palestinians / Hamas is evil” or “Israelis are scum” perspectives are perpetuating the same violence by dehumanizing the other side.

        Yes, thank you for sharing that you get all of your news from reddit headlines and picture subs.

        Palestine wouldn’t have existed without Isreal. It would have been annexed by a neighboring country without the jews they want to kill so badly.
