Hell, a while ago France24 wasn't even using the terms "Israel" or "IDF" in any of it's reporting on the sacking of Gaza - they were literally pretending the bullets, bombs and missiles was being fired and dropped by some unknown party.
Considering that Netanyahu was having corruption charges levied against him before October 7th... well, from the Israelis I've talked to, the intelligence was there to prevent the attack, and the brass let it happen. War time leaders tend to hold on to power a lot easier. In addition to the gas deposits off the Gazan coast, and the whole beach front property development thing that Israeli corporations are advertising. It's terrible what has been happening in Gaza and the West Bank (obviously) BUUUT, I mean, they're surrounded by much larger countries that are hostile to them. WHY they are hostile, well, that is where cracking open a history book comes in.
my favorite is that everybody is referring to the israel palestine thing as a genocide, but i have yet to see anybody piss and shit themselves over what russia is doing to ukraine.
Let alone what russia is doing to it's own domestic population. Take a guess on how putin is still popular after putting hundreds of thousands of people to death in a needless war.
Last I heard, Ukrainians weren't holding up in those hospitals and using them as launch sites for their bombs....
Once you turn a hospital into a launch site, it's no longer afforded the same protection. Might be wise to avoid doing that in the grand scheme of things.
Well, yeah, the IDF entered a cesspit pf hypocrites after obtaining fucking video footage that hostages were taken there. Russia bombed an urban center and hit a hospital.
The more appropriate comparison would be when a hummus misfire hit its own hospital building. Those were good times.
I am tired of these comparisions. The Ukraine war has a clear good and a clear bad side.
The same cannot be said about the Israel/Palastine war. Both parties are equally shitty. There is just one side much more powerful so more capable to commit cruelties. The only clear good people here are the civillians suffering on both sides.
