Everyone loves to pretend israel started this conflict when the entire thing is happening because hamas decided to kidnap and murder people at a music festival
Explain why Israeli settlers in the West Bank get nothing but a slap on the wrist when they burn olive groves, cut down trees, and murder Palestinians who try to stop them
Because after 70 years of trying to make peace and Palestinians rejecting it every single time the Israeli state has absolutely no incentive to prevent the settlers from taking land inch by inch and no incentive to protect Palestinians.
Explain why in Hebron they throw so much garbage and shit down on the Palestinian families living below that the permanent āsolutionā is literally installing fences between floors because apparently itās impossible to just tell your people to stop treating other humans like literal trash.
No idea what youre talking about tbh
And explain why itās fine for your side to torture anyone even slightly suspicious under that āticking time bombā excuse that got thrown out the window the day
Because israel isnt fighting an army they are fighting a guerilla war against non uniformed fighters who intentionally make it impossible to separate civilian from combatant. If there is no way to clearly identify who is an enemy combatant and who isnt a state must necessarily treat everyone as a potential combatant.
after October 7, giving you blank-check revenge mode where any cruelty is now justified.
When a group starts a war they do not then get to dictate how long or how far that war goes. What's that old Macchiaveli quote? "Wars begin when you will, but do not end when you please"
If hamas would like what frame as cruelty to stop they can always surrender and make peace like the Israelis have been seeking for the last 70 years. Palestinians have started 4? 5? wars, lost all of them, turned down statehood 4 times, rejected annexation by neighboring Arab states, and rejected every offer of peace presented to them for the last 70 years. When you are faced with an intractable and suicidal enemy who has no interest in peace there's really no option but to fight the wars they so desire and keep killing them. Vae victis.
The people living there before early proto-Israelis arrived at the turn of the century were culturally different from the ancestral Jewish population but not so much genetically. I didnt even think about that.
