  • First, I am not on Israel’s side in this matter. I denounce their historical and ongoing oppression of Palestinians to say the least and generally see a two state solution as an ideal outcome, along with the outcomes you mentioned, dismantling apartheid and establishing self-determination for Palestinians. However I would not condone atrocities to achieve this goal. Just as I am in support of Ukraine’s resistance against Russia, I would not condone any war crimes if they were to commit them. How we achieve our goals matter.

    Sure, neither of us are directly affected won’t be the ones deciding, yet here we are expressing our opinions and hopefully having a worthwhile conversation about it. Perhaps all of social media is just political noise, yet us humans seem to like to weigh in on world events.


  • No, I was more pointing out that exact conflation of state and people that Hamas’s ideology clearly makes, as evidenced by how they conducted their resistance on Oct 7 by largely targeting and slaughtering civilians in their homes. If Hamas wants to dismantle Israeli oppression through activism, negotiations, and political reform great. IMO, it’s disengenuous to say Hamas believes in this approach, given their actions and rhetoric.
