This is their name for the attack by Hamas on a music festival, is that right?

PugJesus OP ,

Yep.

Ilovethebomb ,

I just woke up this morning to the news that six hostages had been found dead in a tunnel in Gaza, cause of death multiple gunshot wounds at close range.

I struggle to find sympathy for Palestine after reading a story like that.

PugJesus OP ,

Hamas deserve no sympathy - but most Palestinians are just people, like the Israelis, living under a regime that heavily peddles dehumanizing propaganda. If we had no sympathy for the Israelis because of the Palestinians intentionally killed by their hands, we’d be going down the same route that’s currently locking the two sides into a fucking pointless race towards genocide, that Israel seems likely to ‘win’.

I too find it hard to sympathize with little Hind or the poet Refaat when they murder hostages.

Ilovethebomb ,

Yeah, I know, not all Palestinians support Hamas, yada yada, but that’s not how emotions work, is it?

There are no good guys here, just two awful groups of people, and a bunch of civilians caught in the middle.

Should foreigners lose sympathy for your people as a whole, if a group whose members hailed from it do something horrible? Its not like everyday people in Palestine have much choice about what goes on there.

Ilovethebomb ,

Ironically enough, the group that seems to be doing the most to free Palestine from the rule of Hamas is the Israeli government.

And quite frankly, I’m sceptical of the claim Palestine is suffering under a dictatorship going against the will of the people, from what I’ve seen they have a lot of support from the population.

Man, Israel has spent years propping up Hamas.

All of Palestine? You gotta refine that opinion dude, it’s ~5 million people.

Ilovethebomb ,

I’m kinda over being told what to think online, thanks.

GBU_28 ,

It’s cool, I’m not your dad. I’m more speaking to the message than you, cause you’re just a name. I’m speaking to a bigoted, myopic message on a platform that I use. You can come or go.

The civilian settlers who are taking Palestinian homes by force are an occupying force.

The attack by Hamas was not legitimate because it was against random civilians.

PugJesus OP ,

I agree entirely. But to them, Israelis are all ‘settlers’.
