> terrorists who should be stamped out
Not going to happen.
5 years from now all those kids who've lost brothers, sisters, parents, pets, homes who live in miserable tents with no medical care will be perfect fodder for Hamas recruiters.
FACT no matter which side you are on.
Gazan kids were the best educated kids in the middle east despite their forced poverty. Even Tenchusatsu's Final Solution wouldn't work, Jews survived their Final Solution, Gazans will survive this one. The dream of an actual Final Solution isn't going to happen.
Despite the Christian/Jewish propaganda this is the reality of religion.
Here's how the propaganda goes on TV:
1400 Israelis = Slaughtered
22,000 Palestinian = Casualties
100 Israelis = Kidnapped Hostages
8000+ Palestinians = Detained in Israeli prisons 2000 to 4000 extra since Oct 7... and there's plenty of evidence of mistreatment of prisoners in Israeli jails. That's gonna happen with hatred.
Israel can get their 100 "hostages" back anytime they want exchanging them for "detained" Palestinians but that would NOT fit in Netanyahu's plans to be the tough guy who exterminates Hamas. The Israeli hostage families protesting about getting their family members back now know the truth about Netanyahu, who regularly tells our government to fuck off.
And of course right wing west bank Israelis are shooting at, and killing West Bank Palestinians and forcing them off their land with the tacit approval of an Israeli government that even Israelis say verges upon fascism. So more fodder for Hamas recruiters.
I have no bone in the conflict not being religious... I'm in no way into Muslim, Hindu, Native American or New Age Hippy religion... but I know propaganda when I see it. I'm
Doesn't matter if you accuse me of being on the side of the terrorists, these are all facts.
Being a Libertarian (we don't like financing foreign governments) and for the Right Wingers bitching about debt here, we've given Israel 260 BILLION dollars. Israelis get free medical and college, Americans get college debt and homelessness. And our government thinks Gaza rubble needs to be even finer pebbles so we're gonna give them an extra 14 BILLION because they don't have enough tanks, jets, smart bombs etc.
If Israel would have spent 10% of our largess helping Gazans economically (and paying them back for confiscated land) they'd have friends and allies next door. Instead they economically block aided Gaza and suppressed their economy.
So this is no surprise to anyone who's paid attention.
Instead we'll see this conflict impose misery on a LOT of people on both sides for decades to come.
Doesn't matter who's side you're on. Misery for decades to come there.
Damn stupid. |
