One of the most level-headed takes I’ve seen about the war.
Usually I hear either massively pro Israeli government things, the conflation of Hamas/Palestinians, or outright support for Palestine to be a free country, rarely with any nuance.
Nuance is massively important when discussing almost every issue. It’s a shame to hear so few nuanced voices once war sparks. Not the first time either.
Yup I think I’m going to have to share this a lot, especially with a lot of people here in the States that only know that Hamas sucks (which it does) but don’t know the conditions in Gaza or what Israel has done to exacerbate this situation. It’s the best take I’ve heard on the situation so far. That organization of parents of dead kids from both sides was the first thing to give me hope about this conflict in awhile.
The comment the last guy said was especially poignant. “Were going to have to either share this land, or share the graveyard underneath it.”
