The only claim Israel had to the land was a 2000+ year mostly religious claim, yes Jewish people have been treated HORRIBLY for centuries and centuries, but i think they've turned around and are doing the same horrible things done to them to Palestinians now. Their land claim as well is terrible because then it opens up the idea that if you were forced out of your home YEARS ago, you can one day return and kick out the person who lived there longer than you have - more than 10m Africans were stolen from their homes and sold into slavery in the Americas, by Israeli logic, all the black people who had grown up in countries like America and Brazil can now go back to their ancestral countries. The Western support for a two state was always ridiculous, they stole Palestinian land and put Jewish people there, two different groups of vastly different cultures, ethnicities and religions... of course conflict would break out. And at the same time, countries like the UK and America had plenty of Jews living there but they themselves didn't want to take in refugees, so created a fictional home for them miles away from them and in their own colonial territory. Palestine did take in refugees, and look at how they were thanked. Hundreds of thousands forced out of their homes during the Nakba, and now they live in the West Bank and Gaza, the West Bank being constantly settled by Jews, and Gaza being blockaded to the sea despite 1m children living there. And when Palestine finally struck back into Israeli land, everyone claps and says Israel's war crimes is simply self defence. The killings of civilians is horrible on any side, yet the West try and find a way to justify the murder of over 4k children as Israel discriminately and deliberately targets civilians. There have been hostage and witness accounts of Hamas treating their hostages kindly, there have been stories of Israel being the ones who fired blindly into people, there has been no evidence of 40 beheaded babies or evidence of Hamas operating under hospitals, yet I see nearly 40 premature babies dying in a hospital because of Israel, I see families being separated and killed and prisoners being beaten and raped. Millions of people around the world support the fight of Palestine, but our governments don't listen to us because they have their own agenda.

i'm not on any side. truthfully, i don't even know what stands for what. i'm also sick of people canceling others for having an opinion or for what side they are with. everyone has the right to an opinion. this is why i don't share anything. god forbid i share my political stance, my friend would literally trample me. because she thinks she's always right.
I personally would like Russia to travel over there and obliterate them both. Waste of the world's resources with the same old thousand year argument over and over. Kill them all and take their land. So we won't have to deal with this exact war again in another 80 years

i support a peaceful resolution that ends the suffering of innocent civilians and holds the governments/leadership accountable for the crimes against humanity it has committed
The one former Hamas guy I heard about supports Israel, so I support Israel too. Hamas did cut baby’s head off in front of the parents in Israel, so what makes it right to support baby killing scumbag criminals like them. I even read articles about left-wing pieces of shit tearing poster off about Israel hostage in New York “Students caught tearing down Israeli hostage posters may face disciplinary action”.
