    Before Oct 7th 2023 was the deadliest year on record for Palestinians in the West Bank. What does that tell you?

    Israel is the aggressor and it always has been.

      It tells me that either they suck at it or they lacked support. Which means that either Israel was really bad at being the aggressor for all these years or that those people living there aren’t an amalgamous Boogeyman hell-bent on destroying everything in their way.

        They lacked support for the total ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, so they were trying to do it subtly and slowly to avoid the internal and international backlash. And it was working! People like you think that Israel isn’t the aggressor because of that subtly. They successfully fooled people like you into thinking they weren’t carrying out a genocide before Oct 7th.

        The mask has been ripped away. Now we all see what Israel really is.

          No we don’t. It’s just you having an “A-ha!” moment.

          Regular people don’t have time to worry about the grand scheme of things. What we all do though is look at things from afar and think we know everything about them.

          Personally, I think that for better or worse, we’re all people. And if you look beyond just Israel, you’ll likely find that the similarities currently engulfing us at a global level is a problem all nations of every culture struggle with.

          Some do it better, but none have yet gotten rid of the actual source of the problem.
