Accepting the award for best international film for The Zone of Interest, Glazer took to the stage to make an impassioned call for his Auschwitz drama to make people reassess the contemporary conflict in the middle east
“If Israel didn’t exist there would be no people fighting against the existence of Israel” … What the Fuck?
What kind of role reversal is that blaming October 7. on the “occupation” seriously?
I’m not saying Israels government didn’t have a hand in creating adversity and Terrorism by suppressing the Palestinian people but to claim the horrific massacres were there fault is just plain evil.
The horrific massacres were the fault od the Israeli government, and their actions. If you actually read into the history, into kneecapping, into how “settlers” work, into how Palestinians are being treated, how insane the border restrictions are (no cement, because it could be used for military purposes! No velcro because it could be used for military purposes!), the sea blockade, the fact that Gaza’s food was largely based on fishing (and they banned all fishing equipment getting in - ya know, military purposes), while fishermen are forbidden to fish freely due to the blockade, you kind of start to see a pattern of “we’ll do what we want to Palestine and they can roll over and die”.
To say all the hostages are European Settlers is just such a false view of the facts. A lot of these people weren’t settlers. And to assume they are “European” (by which I assume you mean White) is also wrong. There are Jews (and Arabs) that live (and have lived) in this region for centuries, also there is a huge population of Jews that are black or general POC.

Reminds me of South Africa during the apartheid period. Resistance groups always arise when people are oppressed, and they may go to extremes.
Not an American but sure fight the strawmen.

Yeah, how can we blame the people who oppressed a minority for close to a century for fighting back??? That’s just insanity!!1!
This shit doesn’t work anymore. Not here at least…
