I'm not supporting the Israeli government, I'm supporting Israelis right to live in Peace. Prior to last week, I was one of that governments vocal critics. Now, like so many around the world, we can see the existential threat against the people of that country and I fully support the elimination of Hamas.
Once that's done, and while it's happening I can still champion the exiting of the West Bank and the promotion of a two state solution.
Hamas needs to be removed for Palestinians to have Peace. Their purpose as clearly laid out in their founding Charter is the destruction of the Jewish people, which means the destruction of the state of Israel which makes it pretty difficult to get a Peace deal in place.
so it's fine for apartheid Israel to run an open air prison and support Hamas to weaken the PA's push towards a 2-state solution for YEARS, but the second it backfires and there are Israeli deaths, then you need to take sides because suddenly the side with power actually experienced the reality of the ethnic conflict they have been pushing
You clearly don't understand the history of the region. Israel has given back the Golan to the Lebanese, the Sinai to the Egyptians and Gaza to the Palestinians.
If you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone. If you fuck with them, they've shown they will grind your bones into dust indistinguishable from the rubble of the buildings you're hiding your missiles in.
That's what history tells us. Hamas is about to get a history lesson.
so, again:
Golan: under Israeli occupation right now, this very second, as i type this comment.
Sinai: Israel was forced to give this land back by an international coalition that threatened to send their own military to do it instead, this was the solution to the Suez Crisis and ironically one of the few things the USA and the Soviets actually did together, thwarting the French and British neocolonial aims for Africa.
Now aside from that, you seem to have a different definition of "being attacked", you see I don't view the side that strikes first as "being attacked" but rather "attacking", I know this is a common myth spread by American conservative groups and think tanks like PraugerU, but it's just factually incorrect, just like your assertion about Golan.
