You also have to recognize that there’s no line between Palestinians and Hamas. I don’t mean that it’s hard to find. I mean there isn’t one.
72% of Palestinians believe the attack on Israel was “correct”. And presumably some of the remainder are smart enough to not admit to that.
Hamas still enjoys wide, wide support among Palestinians, for some valid reasons.
72% of Palestinians believe the attack on Israel was “correct”.
This is only because it was. And I’m really sad to say it, but it definitely was “correct”.
Listen. Palestinians are fighting a losing war. Their enemy has taken their homes and is ethnically cleansing the region. There is NOTHING that they can do about it. We’re watching the death throes of an entire people. And sometimes when you corner an animal, it bites. It’s not gonna be nice. But Israel is fully responsible for this situation. It wasn’t Palestine that wanted the two state solution. It wasn’t Palestine that illegally settled Israel and stole their land. It wasn’t Palestine that got granted an entire fucking country for no reason. It wasn’t Palestine rigging elections in Israel and supporting the local terrorist organization. Israel has been the architect of all this destruction. Piece by piece, little by little, with the international community backing them and turning a blind eye to their genocide.
Everything Palestine can throw at Israel, it’s justified. And I hope they do enough damage for Israel civilians to maybe think “hey, I don’t want this. Let’s get these warring fucks out of power and end this. Let me get out of this failed notion of a state, I don’t want to be a part of it, I don’t want to support displacing and killing off an entire people”. But it won’t. It’ll just do a bit of damage to retaliate against the genocide, just enough to maybe make 1-2 people feel like they avenged the many loved ones who died. And I think - good. If you’re gonna die anyway, if you’re doomed either way? Fuck them. Fuck those Nazi assholes. Take off as big of a chunk as you can. Make them bleed, to remind them they’re not invincible. Just as a last act of defiance before they finish you off.
