I presume it's a pisstake designed to give maximum offence to those who wish to receive it

Whatever it was, it's been taken down.

Fuck that didn't take long. Ok it was a white van driving past a load of americans (not americans, I had the sound off, whoops) with Israeli Flags and the van had "Queers for Palestine" (it didn't, I was getting mixed up with another thing I was looking at which said that but it had something about gay something) written on the front, and "Hitler was right" written on the side. It was also flying the Palestinian flag. Needless to say, the crowd were unhappy. (And the lads in the van were gloriously conflicted)

Saw that, brilliant. All that stuff is on Telegram which is great for people who don't want to use FB or Twitshit...
Some really good channels on Telegram actually...

Hamas are the most irresponsible, immoral fuckers around. They launch rockets (largely ineffectually) at by far the most potent, militarily speaking, state in the region, knowing perfectly well that the reaction will cause their own people far more misery, destruction and death than their tinpot 'army' could ever hope to.

Israel has an unstable, siege mentality and an extremely itchy trigger finger, but sure we'll give them a reason to flex their muscles, might kill a granny or two if the Iron Dome doesn't work.

They get the sympathy vote so it's worth it from their point of view. Scumbags, utter scum.

[Nazgûl]

As a response, I was going to say that your post is right but was kind of missing the bigger picture here. Instead, I'll just post something I had seen posted earlier by a Palestinian page, which can put it far better and more clearly than I can.

Despite years of ceasefires and truces, the siege of Gaza has never been lifted. Israel looks for any excuse to reignite its airstrikes, in this case to turn attention away from the Sheikh Jarrah evictions, an issue that was garnering global sympathy, and gain right-wing support ahead of likely 5th elections.

Over the past 15 years, Israel has regularly tormented and attacked Gaza. The pretexts change: they elected Hamas; they refused to be docile; they refused to recognize Israel; they fired rockets; they built tunnels to circumvent the siege; and on and on.

But each pretext is a red herring, because the truth of ghettos—what happens when you imprison 2 million people in a hundred and forty square miles, about a third of NYC, with no control of borders, almost no access to the sea, no real way in or out, and with drones buzzing overhead 24/7—is that, eventually, the ghetto will fight back. It was true in Soweto and Belfast, and it is true in Gaza.

We might not like Hamas or its methods, but that is not the same as accepting the proposition that Palestinians should supinely accept the denial of their right to exist as a free people in their ancestral homeland. It is not the same as accepting constant oppression, displacement, injustice, or the same as accepting the bombing of civilian buildings, a war crime being committed by a so-called democratic government.

Peace was achieved in Ireland and in South Africa because the US and the world put pressure on the stronger party, holding it accountable and ending its impunity, while dealing with groups like the IRA and the ANC, which engaged in guerrilla war and even terrorism. It is time for the US to stop its unconditional support for a fascist right-wing apartheid government and either reverse its policies or abandon its claim of being an honest broker.

Some reasonable points made there, although the 'ancestral homeland' bit is debatable, and you'd have ice in your veins not to sympathise to some degree with Palestinian civilians. Apartheid is a bit strong too, I'd argue, as over 20% if Israeli citizens are Arab, who are not obliged to serve in the IDF.

I'm not excusing Israeli overreaction and overkill either, and they certainly wouldn't be so smart without American backing. The point remains though, it's rather mindless to lash out with puny ordinance if it's going to be merely symbolic and get a high quality Air Force pummelling your paisans and a mechanised beast massing on your doorstep on a punitive exercise in return, whatever the rights and wrongs of it. The 'Ra would certainly have thought twice if the same treatment was meted out. There was little if any defending the Boers system, although I'm fond of them, but that's another kettle of fish.

Yeah course. Ballymurphy, bloody Sunday and the numerous other atrocities the brits committed against nationalists in the North aside....

This is also the Brits' fault for reneging on a promise of land to the jews after the war, is it not? So, ya know, fuck the Brits.

[Ollkiller]

When you blockade a country from being an actual country, and then build settlements and strip more of the land back what do you think is going to happen. People are going to fight back, even if it's meaningless.

What galls me even more is that we are the prime example of what needs to be done to achieve peace. And Israel won't do it as seemingly their government is a pack of cunts. Peace could be achieved but won't. Politicians as usual behind the carnage.

[open face surgery]

This might be the perfect time for it all to come to a head. A primed protesting mentality worldwide.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

The building housing both Al Jazeera and the AP's media outlets in Gaza was given an hour to evacuate before an air-raid which has since demolished said building earlier today.

[astfgyl]

That should drum up some sympathy in the press for the Israeli plight.
