This is what happens when you allow a country oppress some of its citizens for decades.

Eventually, the oppressed get desperate and ask for help from the worse people to survive.

or they are were also the baddies all the time. I mean do you all forget that this started after everyone declared war on Israel right after they established their state? There are no saints in this conflict and everybody, including Israel, has done horrible things but they were also besieged from day one.

yeah totally understandable and reasonable decision to turn yourself to one of the worst countries in the world. Hey maybe go for a sandwich and some cookies to Iran after that and I heard that North Korea is also pretty lovely at this time of the year…

I’m guessing there’s not a lot of options for them.

Get rid of the Hamas and start negotiations would be a great start. for both sides in this conflict…

Well the US has made support of Palestine taboo for most western nations, leaving just the enemies of the US as contenders for support.

avater@lemmy.world on 10 Oct 2023 08:14 collapse

But not because they don’t want support Palestine, it’s because they know that this money goes to the Hamas to fuel their war instead of humanitarian aid to the people in need in Palestine

And the US sells the weapons that knock residential towers in Palestinian territory, let’s not act like it is anything more than taking sides. The US props up apartheid Israel, subsidises their military and makes it known that Palestinian support is not appreciated. Palestine is poverty stricken due to the policies of the US and Israel and aid is questioned because it could find terrorism? Israeli soldiers murder Palestinian children.

To everyone getting horny to shit on palestinians because Abbas is going to see Putin: maybe ask yourselves why the leaders of the free world didn’t offer any support first?
