But Ukraine can do it and (correctly) you still defend and support them.

Hamas was originally elected because they ran as the anti corruption party, and because the PA are collaborationists. If you want to get Palestinians to broadly support someone other than Hamas, you have to show that the other guys can get results. Otherwise people continue to join hamas, because that’s their only mechanism of resistance.
Just curious, what are your opinions on Ukraine and Russia? Do you defend Ukraine even tho they did the same things?
Send in soldiers to go kill Hamas guys without leveling an entire apartment building?
Or undermine Hamas politically by not making the PA seem like Israeli cucks.
I mean if anti settler violence is terrorism then yea I wholeheartedly support terrorism. Settlers should not be there.
Also idc who does it. If someone is held without charges in prison, they’ve been taken hostage by the state.

They’re Palestinian women and children, not terrorists. It’s a trade of innocents for innocents
God I hope they track down Monday and kill that terrorist son of a bitch.
If Hamas was freedom fighters, then your exact same defense applies to the Israeli military, and it’s a neverending cycle of “justified” violence.
Yeah. That’s true. There will be continued death and destruction until Israel tries for peace by undermining Hamas politically, not violently. Or until Israel ethnically cleanses the vast majority of Palestinians, which it seems like they’re trying to do.
Hamas is a resistance group, even if their tactics are awful. Their goal isn’t to provoke the most awful Israeli responses possible, but to retaliate for the violence that the IDF does. This has been the case for a while, and October 7th is really the main exception because I doubt Hamas predicted how far they’d get. Even with the Oct 7 attack, Hamas literally tried to trade their hostages for women and children in Israeli prisons. They tried to use their hostages as leverage to get Israel to stop bombing civilians as much. They have to care about Palestinians to some extent, because if enough citizens of Gaza decide the PA is a lot better, Hamas won’t exist anymore, or at least lose power.
Because they are a terrorist group.
You say this like it means anything. The ANC (fought apartheid south africa) was also a terrorist group. So was the FLN (fought french in the Algerian revolution), the Viet Minh (first Indochina war, against the french), and many other resistance groups.
No it doesn’t make fuckin sense unless you don’t understand why hamas exists. Let’s assume that Palestinians aren’t people, and it’s morally acceptable to kill dozens of them to get one or two Hamas guys. Now, you have a ton of family members of those dead people who are extremely angry at Israel for killing their family and friends. Do you think those people just sit down and die quietly? No, quite a few of them join a terrorist organization to fight back. So now, by bombing that hospital, you’ve created more terrorists than you’ve killed.
Ohh gotcha, agreed.
Ok but you’re still being kinda delusional. You want to vote hitler out? You want Vietnam and algeria and Haiti to vote the French out? Sometimes you have to use violence to stop the violence that someone else is doing.
Betterhelp sponsored them, but its also kinda shit so maybe thats why the soldiers are so fucked up
we went in like America always does and blasted their brains out.
I know, I was being sarcastic. What is your proposed solution to facists? Because if you’re pretending that you can just get rid of them, or colonial forces, or imperial forces without violence you’re delusional. Historically that hasn’t been the case. You can’t just shut your eyes and ignore the world you live in.
Yeah that’s how we beat the Nazis in ww2. We invested in their education infrastructure.
You can prevent facism from taking root with a good education sure, but once colonialism or imperialism or facism are present, violence is exceptionally good at getting rid of it.
It’s parody/satire, that’s their entire account. Sheev P refers to sheev palpetine.
shooting Gazan civilians at least trying to run away from it or not?
You got a source for that?
Mmn yes resistance movement that holds its civilians as hostage, blocking the borders internally so that no precious civilians that are their only means of negotiation can get away from the situation.
I don’t think you fully understand how violent most revolutionary movements are. Either way, blocking civilians from moving doesn’t fucking matter bc Israel is bombing everywhere indiscriminately. If they go to the south the get bombed, if they stay in the north they get bombed, if they take refuge in a church or hospital they get bombed, whats the fucking point.
Yes because any other places that are muslim and not have Israel problem is a nice place to be for queer people or women.
Again, they could have had secular marxists mostly in charge but Israel supported Hamas as a counterweight to them so here we are. They can figure out that whole issue once they stop being colonized and occupied. The PFLP and DFLP along with other secular orgs might have enough power once Palestine is free, but again, a queer person in Gaza’s main worry right now is probably the bombs, not coming out of the closet.
Well I like to think neutrally since you only have their word to take for granted.
No I’m gonna think they lied, cause I don’t think there is any way that Israel would have survived if half of the people in Gaza (1 million) were hamas militants or suppliers.
And what is Israel to do while Hamas gathers forces and continues to attack?
Tighten the border like they fucking should have done when they got intel that hamas was planning something. Don’t let em through and they won’t kill civilians.
Oooh, now you care about war crimes? Where were you when Hamas were performing war crimes?
I dislike war crimes yeah. I also think that it is a waste of time to condemn Nat Turner’s crimes, or the ANC’s crimes, or Algeria’s crimes. Revolutions are violent, innocent people die, horrific crimes are committed. But you don’t condemn the revolutionaries, you condemn the oppressor for forcing them to turn to these awful means.
Source please.
I’ve successfully boycotted Israel (I’m broke and I’m not buying anything)
