    Yeah no. What the fuck do you think the palestinian armed forces/whatever will do if anyone gives them the same weapons as israel? The exact fucking thing israel is doing to them, maybe worse.

    Fuck them both. They’re squatting on land that they got kicked out of by empires, and established there by empires. Fuck them.

      No, this is just chavuanism. Israel is genocidal because it is founded on settler-colonialism, it isn’t an intrinsic racial issue.

        Close your eyes and pretend hamas has the US’s arsenal. What happens in the next few months or so?

            You’re saying Israel is genocidal but hamas isn’t. They simply don’t have the means. Yes, Israel is the bad guy, but by their decades of settler colonialism have cultivated a group literally dedicated to their eradication. Fighting a bad guy doesn’t automatically make you a good guy. They’re just less awful by comparison.

              Hamas might be genocidal.
              Israel is genocidal.

              I’m not gonna go so far as to say Hamas are good guys, but treat people according to what they have done and not what they may do. They’re not currently on the same level.

              Yes, because Israel is committing genocide and Hamas is not. The things that happen in westerners rascist imagining do not have any bearing on actual factual reality

          A ceasefire gets signed overnight and we have a two state solution and the tens of thousands of illegal settlers in the west bank take their ass home
