In the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, do you support Israel, or Palestine?

[EnglishArtsteacher]

I'm part of the Free Palestine movement, so my position is clear.

Israel

Palestine

Oh i can go on and on about this, but the fact is that israel created a settler colonial state based on zionist ideology and the belief that they had a RIGHT to the land, no one has a right to a land if that right was only prevalent a thousand years ago - and yet any jewish person can migrate to israel and become a citizen, that doesn't even make sense in political terms - can the descendants of refugees, immigrants or asylum seekers who were forced to leave their homes be allowed to go back to a land they have no cultural or social ties to? can modern african-americans go to africa and claim whatever land their ancestors came from, by the same logic, why are those who were forced to flee during the nakba not allowed to return?

and onto the genocide happening now, everyone likes to talk about hamas and the October 7th attacks, the killing of civilians will always be horrible, but people need to take into consideration that they are liberation fighters trying to fight for their rights that have been taken away from them in the past 70 years, israel have been keeping surveillance over gaza for years now, how did they somehow completely miss what they were planning until they were already there? and for people who say genocide is too heavy a word to use in this, why is it that genocide is the worst possible case scenario, why is committing a war crime or ethnic cleansing not as bad? people will only claim genocide AFTER the genocide has already taken place...
no one will settle for a two state solution on the terms of israel and the west, this is just hypocrisy and crime one after another, people are standing blindly aside thinking palestinians somehow DESERVE what's happening to them, children are dying, people are starving to death, israel have bombed hospitals, refugee camps and schools, recently they attacked people LINING UP FOR FOOD AID - how can anyone justify that as anything other than a complete disregard for human life?

[EnglishArtsteacher]

I'm glad you mentioned this has been going on for over 70 years (to be exact, it's 76 years this year). People who think this just started on October 7th, 2023 are ignorant.

Someone said "When a demon kills a monster, I don't interfere" somehow it's my attitude.

[loveslongnails]

Israel's behavior has been a disgrace since before day one in 1948, even before the nakba. Apparently, they have a very short memory of less than 10 years when the Nazi's shipped them out of Germany or to concentration camps. It has now progressed from displacement to pure genocide under their current leadership, which isn't supported by the majority of their citizens.

[Al_Musafir]

Palestine of course. The settlers were kicked out of entire Europe and if Europe cares about them so much, they should establish a state of Israel in their own countries and let them live there. The migrants should have stayed as migrants and not abduct, kill, rape the Palestinians while occupying their lands.

[Lottifan]

@al_musafir
The Palestinians elected Hamas to run Palestine. Let them suffer the consequences.30,000 can go an enjoy their 72 precious virgins.

[Al_Musafir]

@Lottifan yeah, so? Hamas isn't the bad guy here, Israeli occupying force is. The backstabbers should return to the countries they were kicked out of. Death to Israel.

[Joshydavid25]

I support Israel.. The Palestinians want nothing more than for all Jews to be gone. They elected Hamas into power, and even places like Iraq and over neighboring countries don't want to take them in because terrorism follows wherever they go..

[Superreader]

Neither. I think both have done horrible things AND been victim to the other.

[laly520]

im not a criminal to support a criminal regime such as israel

[Lottifan]

@laly520
The Palestinians elected Hamas to run Palestine. Let them suffer the consequences..

[Al_Musafir]

@Lottifan but Hamas isn't wrong here. Israel occupied west bank in 1967. Hamas was formed in 1987...20 years later. You may whine about it being a terrorist force but it's irrelevant. Hamas isn't the bad guy here, the illegal occupants who once migrated in the land of Palestine as refugees are.

[laly520]

@Al_Musafir that is right

[Al_Musafir]

@laly520 absolutely. It isn't too hard to guess who's the bad guy here. An army trained to run kids over with tanks and strip the hostages naked and sexually assaulting them... People have to be blind or willfully evil to accept all that as 'right'. From being refugees to the land to brutally running the kids of the ones who accepted them with open arms, these people have stooped down to new lows.

[laly520]

@Al_Musafir people r selective with it
n evil media is doing great job with it

[Al_Musafir]

@laly52

[Al_Musafir]

@laly520 these people are still for '¡srael' even when there are clear evidences against their doings. Some accept the truth others are wilfully blind and choose not to accept the reality. Pleased to see good ones like you!

[Lottifan]

@Al_Musafir
Israel won the West Bank in the six day war after it was attacked by several Arab countries so get your facts right before you comment.

[Al_Musafir]

@Lottifan I wonder why illegal occupants of the land were attacked when they were backstabbing the exact people who gave them refuge when they were driven out of Europe. Hmm..

[Lottifan]

Well done Israel
30,000 good Palestinians playing with their 72 precious virgins = 30,000 less terrorists in the world.

[Al_Musafir]

@Lottifan 'Khaybar Khaybar Ya Yahood... Jaish e Muhammad...' Well I think you can guess the later part. Dw, Aelia is the second Khaybar for you all. And remember, you asked for all that is going to follow.

[Lottifan]

@Al_Musafir
Muhammad can kiss my ass.

[Al_Musafir]

@Lottifan tell this when Muslims are hunting your kind down one by one and even the trees of Jerusalem are shouting 'there's a j£w behind me! K¡ll him!'

[DarkWinterNights]

I think Israel has a right to defend itself, but I also think there are a lot of innocent civilians getting caught up in Israel’s attacks on Hamas. I really don’t want any part in it though. I think the US needs to mind its own business for once.

[andreasderjuengere]

Two tribes that enjoy quarrelling.
I'm on my own side - far away from that.

[lightbulb27]

I'll stay out of it, not my mess.

[LimitedBenefits101]

Palestine 100%

[DiegoO]

None. Both want to exterminate each other.

[DiegoO]

Also, is their problem is not my problem

[DiegoO]

*their problem (...)

I have enough to deal with

[OtterMan68]

I support those who want peace
