Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iran say Israel has only itself to blame for Hamas attacks
The governments of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran appeared to blame Israel for its escalating conflict with Hamas on Saturday. The Palestinian militant group launched a mass attack on Israeli forces …
they are right. gaza is an apartheid state. all power to the palestinians
Isreal has a blockade of goods into gaza, determining which goods go in and which do not. Israel determines the amount of food that can enter Gaza, and in leaked documents has been found saying they "need to put palestinians on a diet", reducing the amount of food entering an already poverty-stricken region.
Israel controls the electricity that flows into Gaza, and they regularly bomb the one power-plant that exists in Gaza.
All power to Palestinian liberation
Murdering civilians is never a proper answer to any historical injustice
The only proper way to solve any conflict is to get two teams of moral philosophers to discuss the issue until an agreement can be reached.
Anyway, we live in the real world, so yeah those civvies are gonna get it.
I agree. Israel should stop murdering children, protestors and aid workers. Decades ago.
you're right dawg. isreal should stop murdering Palestinian civilians
To be honest, they are right. I'm not condoning Hamas, but we could have had peace if the Israel conservative party was so hell bent in pushing an antisemitism against Palestine for so many years.
Still doubt that; Iran would not like to see Israel exist if it were up to them
Oh for sure, they definitely have their own agendas and are taking advantage of the situation to try and advance it, but that doesn't make it any less true
The Israel/Palestine situation feels a lot like the situation between Native Americans and European settlers. You can't move into an already occupied place and try to dominate or displace the native inhabitants without expecting violent resistance. (And go figure the British are largely to blame for this too).
Stop ignoring history Jews were living on that territory for thousands of years, unlike Europeans un America. You are conveniently ignoring facts which would immediately render your analogy completely bogus.
Heartbreaking, worst person you know, etc.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The governments of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran appeared to back Hamas in its escalating conflict with Israel on Saturday.
The Palestinian militant group launched a mass attack on Israeli forces and settlements, killing at least 100 people in Israel and about 200 in Gaza early Saturday.
While leaders in the U.S. and Europe quickly denounced the attack and gave support for Israel, the three Middle Eastern nations criticized the country over its treatment of Palestinians.
“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is closely following the developments of the unprecedented situation between a number of Palestinian factions and the Israeli occupation forces, which has resulted in a high level of violence on several fronts there,” the country’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the conflict a “war” in a public address early Saturday.
The U.S. has vowed to support Israel, with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin saying the government will ensure the country “has what it needs to defend itself.”
The original article contains 425 words, the summary contains 164 words. Saved 61%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
When Palestinians protest peacefully, no one listens, nothing changes, and they get killed by Israeli forces.
When people in the US have tried to support Palestinians by boycotting Israeli products and divesting institutions of Israeli investments, lawmakers have passed laws banning such boycotts.
When Palestinians protest violently, they get bombed and killed at a much faster rate by Israeli forces.
Israel will almost certainly kill at least 10x as many civilians in their campaign than Hamas militants did; Israel's foreign minister has already said that Israel is going to end up killing civilians unintentionally ("unintentionally"), and that the world needs to cut them slack in advance. The US will continue to support Israel, both because evangelicals believe Jews need to control Jerusalem in order for Jesus to return ("return"), and because recognizing the apartheid nature of Israel would condemn our own treatment of Native Americans.
Saudi didn't say that. The other two are the ones who funded the attack so I'm not sure why anyone would listen to terrorists.
The Saudis are about to fuck the Palestinians as bad as the Israelis are, just diplomatically instead of with air raids.
Israel: well if we started it, we can finish it too.
I mean that might be true but terrorist-supporters like the Saudis aren't the ones who should be saying it.
Haaretz is being v critical of Netanyahu and on top of the decades of occupation of Gaza and West Bank I'm inclined to agree. Escalating racial violence to protect his own career, bro might as well have sent the call to Hamas HQ himself.
You can say it's all Israel's fault, but at no point in history have the Palestinians ever been willing to accept a peace deal that didn't include a clause that would make Israel either unable to defend itself (borders narrower than Central Park) or be voted out of existence (the consequence of Right of Return).
Palestinians have spent over half a century living under the absurd delusions that if they keep fighting, someday, magically Israel is going to just say, "gosh, you're right. We'll just disband our country and move to... Uh... Somewhere."
The cold, hard fact is that even with the constant threat of terrorism, Israel has continued to thrive, while Palestinians continue to sink deeper into poverty.
If Palestinians loved their children more than they hate Israel, they could end this tomorrow by accepting that they'll never get Israel proper back, but they could live in peace and with autonomy in Gaza and the West Bank with their own state.
Honestly, is like the entire concept of cutting their losses just never even occurred to them.
And since they have spent the better part of a century trying (and occasionally succeeding) to murder Israel children, I'm all out of sympathy for them.
Yeah! It's all Israel's fault! The nerve of them, trying to exist and be Jewish at the same time!
Antisemitism is definitely not the sole reason that Hamas hates Israel
