All those people who said 'All lives matter,' in response to BLM...

...none of them seem to think that Palestinian lives matter much. Or at all. Just an observation.

Didn't these Palestinians cheer and celebrate in Gaza streets when Hamas was killing innocent people?
And yes, Israelis do the same when their government bombs Palestine.

That place is totally fucked up, and you can't really understand it when you're living in Europe, far away from that shit. There will never be peace over there. There are just too much hate, religious bullshit and idiocy.

@LookingForTheSummer Yeah... that kind of sums it all up accurately.

And where do you live?

If living in Europe disqualifies me from having an opinion, then Living in America (which is much further away) should disqualify America from giving aid and weapons to Israel.

@Burnley123 I live very close to where that is happening.

I just find it pretty dumb when people in Europe and the US pick sides in this conflict like it's a game. I have to tell you it's much more complicated than you can imagine, and no side is completely right.

@LookingForTheSummer I've read into this plenty and I have never said that either side was completely right. It's lazy and reductionist for you to assume that I would think that.

I don't see this as a game when likely tens of thousands (at least) of people will die from it.

@Burnley123 Well, I've seen you being worried about the death number of only one side. Lol.
Another thing I noticed is that most leftists in Western countries support Palestine, and most rightists support Israel. So this whole thing has become another excuse for them to fight against each other. 🙄

@LookingForTheSummer If you agree with equality, its consistent to support the plight of an occupied people.

If you've read what I have said, then I have explicitly condemned Hamas killing civilians but I guess its a nuance you can miss if you want to put people in an easy box.
