Comment on Is Lebanon part of Israel’s promised territory?
eacapesamsara@sh.itjust.works 11 hours agoHopefully you see now that Israel deserved and earned 10/7, that this response from them is nothing new, that this fascist colonial project masquerading as a country has been doing this nonstop since before it’s official formation in the 1940s.

Sorry, no, I do not see it that way. While Israel has slowly settled additional territory, things have been relatively peaceful there for the last decade or so. There is no excuse for terrorism.

I can’t reconcile
with
The IDF is stealing land, making people homeless, burning crops, murdering Palestinians, and so on.
What is an appropriate response in your view?

I understand the sentiment, but does that really justify killing innocent civilians at a music event?

So what is an appropriate response?
The IDF just murdered your family, razed your house, and torched your crops. You are now homeless and alone. What is your next course of action?

2023, in September, there was an article from AP News revealing that 2023 was the deadliest year for Palestinian children to be the last twenty years. The causes of death? The IDF. Exclusively. 10/7 happened because Israel has been causing escalating violence for the last 20 years after 60 years of mild to extreme violence.

“pacified” isn’t “peaceful”. They control the actual water, power and access into and out of Palestine. There’s nothing above-board that isn’t within their power to cut off at a whim.
That’s absolute power over a group they hate. You learned what absolute power does, right? You know what hate does?
The media’s acceptance of anything bibi has done since coming into power has caused a lot of shady shit to be ignored. Really bad stuff.
I don’t condone violence but I know I’m not the jurist to pass judgement over 10/7 or a hundred things before it. I have food, water, and a safe bed, and I have no frame of reference to understand the context under which a people treated like starving dogs for 3 generations have risen up to bite their unwanted master.
But I can opine on a people who condemn guerilla warfare on one hand and commit actual terrorism with the other.
