No man, don't both sides this. There is a clear and unequivocal genocide taking place as we speak, and those who are going to sit on the fence really need to look into their souls.
I get it if you don't give a fuck. I get it if you want to wipe the rag heads from the face of the earth, but I will never understand the "both side-rs"
Slight correction: the overwhelming majority of the Palestinians senselessly killed in this genocide are innocent civilians, many children. They aren’t inhumane radicals, they are purely victims of Israel’s genocide.
I don’t justify violence against innocent people.
Who currently have operated Gaza as an open air concentration camp and implemented a system of apartheid. Hamas in not "inhumane" they are a correct reaction to a population besieged by the world's new Nazis backed by a capitalist world order.
Until Israel is wiped off the map, no one will be safe from their holocaust on the Palestinians.
Don't coddle people, I condemn those who condemn Hamas.
There are more than two sides, and a lot of innocents dying. Mostly at Israel's hands.
One can say all are dying due to Israel as their policy of settler-colonialism and apartheid have fueled the violence. History didn't start on Oct. 7th you know.
Even so, the answer to two children fighting on the playground is DISTINCTLY NOT to rush in, fail to stop the fight, and start asking, "okok who threw the first punch?! We're selling the other guy a gun."
This whole situation is beyond pathetic.
Thats the US and the West, many in the global south actually aren't heavily invested in the elimination of Israel. China has called for a ceasefire and an establishment of a Palestinian state. South Africa has already filed a lawsuit against Israel with many countries following suit.
It is only the western liberal democracies that facilitate the violence and bloodshed. Not to mention propelling islamophobia and antisemitism (Israel is inherently antisemitic). It is only the western countries that are unable to act maturely.
This is not two children fighting you liberal pig. It is a simple history of settler colonialism of one party against the other. Israel is a crime against hummanity since even before its illegal creation by Europe.
Framing it as a petty fight is disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourself.
Let's not forget who started all this. I don't think Hamas will be eager to parade dead women on their cars anytime soon again.
Uh... Israel in 1967? Israel in 1949? Zionists in 1917? Israel in 2005? Take your pick.
There are three sides to this conflict, not 2.
