spiderplant@lemm.ee 11 months agoYeah there is. If you’re antifascist and anti-imperialist you should support the oppressed people.
If you don’t side explicitly against fascist states and American imperialism then you support it.

And support terrorism? Tell me how will these large scale attack make life better for Palestinians?
spiderplant@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Terrorism or liberation?
How will the opposite help?
Injustice can happen under peace, so peace is not the answer. Peace is the language of the oppressor, liberation and justice is the language of the oppressed.
Also if America backs someone and calls their opponents terrorists even through they funded them, does that mean the opponents are actually terrorists?

It’s terrorism when you attack civilians. It’s liberation when you attack the military. I mean they must not give a shit about getting any kind of support because it looks really bad when you murder and kidnap people from a music festival especially when many of them were foreigners. That passes everyone off. And the Palestinians are gonna get murdered for it. I’m sure the ireaeli government is just giddy to have a huge excuse for their current invasion… the Gaza strip really needs to become a neutral zone at this point lol…

Even if they only hit military targets they would still be labeled as terrorists. You need a different word that hasn’t been massively overused.
If the support is conditional its not really support.
Did you even do any research before you came up with this bulshit liberal stance? The Gaza Strip a neutral zone? That’s like saying Israel needs to become a neutral zone.

What liberation will there be here? Do you expect the hamas to win anything against Israel? They would fight actual military targets if they could win anything.
Can you tell what this show of violence from the hamas will bring to Palestine? What will Palestine earn from this?
I’m all for fighting oppression. But I’m skeptical of sacrificing people for nothing.
Yes Israel is a fascist and terrorist country. And the US are hypocrite to support them. That being said, will a shower of rockets on civilians change any of that? No, on the contrary.
If any, Israel is the only one that will win from this new war.

The US aren’t hypocrites when they support fascist states its what they’ve always done unless public support hasn’t let them.
Hamas isn’t Palestine. I expect when the people rise up together they will win. There are way more organisations than Hama’s currently in this fight btw.
Last I’ve seen is that the Palestinian offensive is 10 km away from splitting Israel in two. We’ll see what the situation is when the dust settles.
For the moment I will continue to uncritically support the Palestinian struggle and call out those that don’t because they support genocide as the status quo.
