I support Palestine 🇵🇸

Seems like the Gaza situation is at an impasse.

Israeli Viewpoint:

Supporters of Israel believe that the country has the right to defend itself against threats posed by Hamas and other militant groups.

They argue that Hamas initiates violence and uses civilians as shields, making it difficult for Israel to respond without causing civilian casualties.

Israel's actions are seen as a necessary measure to ensure the safety and security of its citizens.

Some critics of Israel's actions acknowledge that while Hamas is a problem, they also express concerns about the proportionality and humanitarian impact of Israel's military responses.

Hamas Viewpoint:

Advocates for the Palestinian cause, including Hamas, argue that Israel's actions constitute collective punishment and violate international law.

They highlight the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, including the blockade that restricts access to essential resources and aid.

Hamas is portrayed as a resistance movement fighting against Israeli occupation and oppression.

Critics of Israel accuse it of committing acts of genocide and mass displacement against the Palestinian people, particularly in Gaza.

Overall, the perspectives presented in the text reflect deeply entrenched narratives and emotions on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with each side justifying its actions and condemning those of the other.

Banana Republic refers to like, say, when most of Central America were turned into banana factories for the US. Democratic governments over thrown, many people killed, no food you grow for yourself, death squads, etc... all so that they could make sure the US had loads of bananas all the time.

So yeah with you on Palestine but that ain't the word for it.

You're right about Palestine but I don't think you understand the concept of a banana republic.

why do you support terrorists committing genocide on Israel

[quote] Also the US is a banana republic [/quote]

They’re as bad as each other. And they’ll do this dance forever.

Lot of very comfortable and absolute western commentaries, often from countries with no real experience of terrorism. Not as yet seen any of those commentators lift a finger to help anyone.
