Ashamed that my country abstained here
I'm not.
It’s obvious why OP is ashamed. But why aren’t you? Proud of your nation’s quiet support of a genocide?
I think if I found out my country was doing a genocide with an unimaginably higher ratio of civilians murdered, I'd decry both acts, and not actively support the ongoing justifications made for a genocide by an apartheid based regime.
so you agree, Palestine has a right to defend itself, including with armed resistance? or is this a case of "FAFO for me, but not for thee"?
Nope it definitely goes both ways, but one side has everything to lose. I might be morally justified trying to take on ms13 but I'm still going to get my ass handed to me.
one side DOES have everything to lose, and it's the side being ethnically cleansed, starved, kidnapped, bombed, mauled by dogs, indiscriminately shot, and thrown into rape camps for about 75 years now. I'm glad you agree Palestinians have a right to resist their own eradication 🫡
So you're saying you condemn the rapist soldiers at Sde Teiman, the mob that rioted in their defense, and the administration that fostered an environment where that would happen?
Because surely you aren't refering to the fabricated hoax about Hamas doing mass rape. You'll reject it out of hand, but I guess for anyone else reading this, another good breakdown.
They voted in favour?
