Well, I mean, there won’t be much left to control if Israel carries out what they’re saying they’re going to carry out.
I’m not defending Hamas or the actions taken. You are right, the consequences for Palestinians incurred from this will be nightmarish. I’m condemning the actions of Israel, and more broadly the characterization of Israel’s actions as constituting some kind of “self defense”. As I stated in a comment earlier, you wouldn’t say that native Americans who fought back against their colonizing oppressors were the aggressors in the situation. The context within which acts of violence happen is important.
I’m well aware that had I been there, had I been present at that festival it could have just as easily been me who suffered these acts of violence. I have no interest in defending those acts or the people who committed them. I am horrified that we may be witnessing the beginning of a mass culling of Palestinians. I am horrified that genocide could result from this, and that America and most western nations would aide that genocide in occurring.
