It is interesting that similar sentiments aren’t leveled against Israeli police & military when they slaughter innocent people.
It would be weird and suspicious if I did that right?
“Well, Israel would probably have more people on their side if they didn’t kill thousands of innocent people” (which they have done)
It’s like you can use this line against whoever you don’t like to justify not liking them.
My sincere question is, what do you actually want the outcome to be? It is my opinion that if Hamas stopped going to war completely, Israel would continue to oppress Palestinians by denying them rights, displacing them from their homes, and keeping them as second class citizens on the basis of race.

Do you live under a rock?
Since 2015, the General Assembly has adopted 140 resolutions criticizing Israel, mainly over its treatment of the Palestinians, its relationships with neighboring countries and other alleged wrongdoings. Over the same period, it has passed 68 resolutions against all other countries, UN Watch said.
I’m aware plenty of people condemn Israel for good reason, but what I don’t hear is the snide “you’ll never get anyone on your side like that”. It’s a sentiment that black people have been hearing since the 60’s, and is more commonly leveled against “underdogs” that are fighting an establishment.
But @zerfuffle@lemmy.ml hasn’t condemned them. In fact they seem to be condoning them. If you were reading this thread with a logical mind you would have noticed that
Recruiting Middle-Eastern Muslims to your cause, with your cause being Jihadist and genocidal, is something most consistent with this approach.
Have you seen these recent videos with crowds in Gaza cheering over all those bodies and yelling “Allahu akbar”, “Khaybar” and such things?
I mean, the very fact that they are sharing these naturally and openly should inform you about that society (if you knew nothing about it before, that is, cause what I’m trying to communicate is obvious for anybody knowing anything about West Asia).
murdering civilians en masse and then desecrating their corpses seems like a strange approach to recruiting people to your cause.
You’re woefully ignorant to the world around you if you think they did this for sympathy.
If sympathy hasn’t worked up until now, what do you think would have to change in order to make it work? Lol.
But yeah, keep parroting those upvoted reddit talking points. You fit in!
Its almost as though Hamas is a terrorist organisation or something

Multiple things can be bad at the same time. It is also possible to fight without being barbaric.
Easy to say when you don’t have white phosphorus raining down on your kids’ school…

You just said people don’t express similar sentiments when the Israeli police and military slaughter innocent people.
Palestinians are trying to play on the sympathies of the international community to garner aid and support for their cause. Israel is not.
Thank goodness for those resolutions! Amirite or amirite?

I’m sure Israel made some real changes because of these slaps on the wrist.

Ah yes, because peaceful protest worked so well: https://www.ohchr.org/en/press-releases/2019/02/no-justification-israel-shoot-protesters-live-ammunition
So, to be clear, you are condoning the murder en masse of unarmed israeli civilians?
An eye for an eye is a commandment in the Book of Exodus. What do you propose Gazans should do instead?
It was a yes or no question. Please answer
It’s possible for logical people to condemn the violence from both the Israeli military and Hamas, you know
