Without the 7 of october, this comics would be right. But after that, adding a Hamas fighter with a Kalashnikov hiding behind the Palestinian civilian would be more accurate.

The horrors Hammas did that day was cruel and inhuman, and so does the Israeli responce since then. In such a situations, it is difficult to chose a side.

Palestinian doesn’t mean “hamas fighter”!

You saw a drawing of a person holding a Palestine flag and you are writing about Hamas.

Palestine and it’s people were there before Hamas and they will still be there long after Hamas and Israel is history.

Israel = genocide + apartheid

That’s exactly what I mean by adding the Hamas fighter behind the Palestinian civilian, and not making him a Hamas fighter.

You saw a drawing of a person holding a Palestine flag and you are writing about Hamas.

Because Hamas is responsible as much as the Israeli government about the current situation. Putting a lone Palestinian here push the narrative that no one did anything wrong on their side, which isn’t true.

Palestine and it’s people were there before Hamas and they will still be there long after Hamas and Israel is history.

I hope so for Hamas, but for Israel it is more complicated. If there was a solution that would allow both side to live together as equal, I’d support it fully. But just making Israel disappear won’t resolve anything.

Israel = genocide + apartheid

Exactly. As would be a Palestinian state dominated by Hamas or its allies.

The hamas is not a government.

It is easy to pick a side.

Not anymore, after being mostly whipped out by the Israeli military.

Nor the Israeli government, or the Iran aligned armed groups (Hamas, Hezbollah) are worth of being supported, the only worthy side is those who wish for peaceful and respectful cohabitation.

Hum… In Gaza they used to be exactly a government. Not a democratic one, but one imposed by Israel.

… what I’m sure the GP wouldn’t like to hear either.

The justification of Israel was “we are fighting terrorists”.

Call it whatever you’d like, according to this, they did not recognize it as a government, and as such we have horrible terrorist acts on one side, and government-backed war crimes on the other side.

And also, the death count is not really comparable, and Israel using its status of a government to mass-murder civilians is much closer to the nazis than to a terrorist attack.

The scale and the nature of the authors of these crimes are not leaving a doubt as to who is the main problem now.

Easy to call out someone as tanky when you chose to illustrate one side horrors while being willfully blind to the other side ones.
