Hamad said that Palestinians are the victims of the occupation, therefore no one should blame them for the events of October 7 or anything else, adding: "Everything we do is justified."
And this is the big long-term problem with Israel's campaign of open genocide. They don't care how many innocents are killed as long as they wipe out Hamas, but in the process, they're inspiring more fanaticism in the region and fueling Hamas and other similar groups. Both Hamas and the Israeli government are terrorist organizations and they have a symbiotic relationship. The only real losers here are the innocent people caught in the middle.
Forgive my uninformed position here, but I'm sure they are aware that you can't defeat terrorism by murdering the ever living piss-fuck out of everyone. There must be another motivation for just killing everyone.
It’s the long-term problem with Hamas’ campaign of open terrorism and genocide, they’re inspiring more fanaticism in the region and fueling the Israeli governments and other similar groups.
Well... yeah? Ain't no one hear saying Hamas are the good guys. Just the second part of a two-headed parasite thats attached itself to the people if Israel/Palestine.
Hamas is correct. "Israel" is a European settler colony, and like other European settler colonies, it depends on the removal of the indigenous population and theft of their land. Palestinians have exhausted every possible alternative to violence over decades, and it's brought them to the brink of extinction. Their options are to fight for their lives and right to return to their homes, or to be exterminated as a people by the Israeli state. Palestinian Jews existed before Europe created Israel, and they'll exist as equals after Palestine is free.
There are many islmist countries. They can choose freely. But ask the jewish minority in all these arab countries how many jewish nations they can could choose to go to. There never was a country called Palestine, the region holds the name. But roundabout 3000 jears ago on this spot where two jewisch kingdoms. So whois the settler?
“Actually white people originate from Africa, so we have a right to take back the ancestral homeland of the white race”.
“There are plenty of ‘black countries’ for them to choose, this should be a white country for us.”
“If those people keep reproducing, soon white people won’t be a majority, and that’s ‘white genocide’.”
Arguments like this are only plausible to terminally racist settlers. You go along with them because it licenses you to keep pursuing your material interest in murdering people that don’t look like you and stealing their land. After all, if the people living in Palestine have a right to live in their homes without being invaded and exterminated, then that raises some uncomfortable questions about the US, Canada, Australia, and other countries built on land theft and extermination by white Europeans. You obviously can’t think too hard about that and still believe that you’re the protagonist of history, so you’ll seek out any flimsy justification to keep believing that bombing hospitals makes you heroic.
Still the Jews innit, cos of Exodus 3:10 "This is how you will know that the living God is among you and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites, Hivites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites."
Thank you. Let us start working with the status quo. Israel right now is starting to realise that netanyahu is not the right guy and palrstinians/gazans need to accept, that they are mere cettle to hamas/abbas.
Also the arab world needs to work on this compromise with the palestinians and stop using them as propaganda tools.
And if Hamas thinks that Israel does not have a right to exists and they have the right to kill everyone there, the occupation wasn't necessary. It's a vicious circle. Hamas is not in position to present themselves as victims. Their agenda is unconditional and the occupation is not the reason they kill people. They simply lie.
You: "its easy Billy. Just kill all the terrorists."
Billy : "But wont that also kill countless civilians in the process, creating distraught and enraged people who might take up arms to be terrorists in revenge?"
You: "Of course, just keep killing and killing and killing civilians, and I'm sure eventually we will have killed enough to make that impossible."
Billy: "So...Genocide then."
You : "yes."
Real reasoned and excellent stance. Maybe Israel can fight a 8 trillion dollar forever war for 20 years that kills millions like the US did, and still have Hamas. What a good idea.
You don't realize how hypocritical this is. There's no ambiguity on Israeli policy either. And it's time to dismantle that state entirely and undo the last century of European meddling. Start over trying to figure out if and where there should be a Jewish ethno state. I heard Israel was thinking of displacing all Palestinians to Egypt. Maybe Israelis can go there. Or Canada, that was another option they floated for full displacement of all of Palestine, right? I'm sure Canada would readily give up territory for Jewish ethno state.
