You are just heading into another set of abstractions. A third neutral path that still misses the most important factor. That human life and dignity is the overwhelming priority. A legitimate" concern is a very bad reason for death, injury, trauma and hunger.

My heart goes out to the people of Palestine, and I'm rooting for them. I'm not a fan of Hamas though.

Your heart goes out to the people of Palestine and you're rooting for them....but you are busy spreading zionist propaganda, "both siding" genocide, denying them any right to self-defense. This is just liberal zionist rhetoric meant to delegitimize armed resistance by pretending to care for those who you hope are more likely to accept their subjugation.

Colonial invasion, occupation, genocide, ethnic cleansing and holocaust aren't really 'both sides' kind of issues.

However, every colonial invader, occupier, genocidaire and war criminal of the last few hundred years has done their best to flip the blame.

Some of them have been really, really good at it, and each learns from the previous efforts.

Yeah? And you think that justifies genocide?

Nothing justifies genocide. My (limited) understanding is that both sides want the destruction of the other.

I'm not a fan of terrorism, and I'm not a fan of theocracies either.

So here we are talking about the problem and I'm sharing an observation about the process of talking about the problem and you wish me great harm. For just sharing my observations.

You have no idea of who I am or what I actually support and you are ready to fucking stone me. Again, oh the irony of my original comment.

>I'm not a fan of terrorism, and I'm not a fan of theocracies either.

Israel's entire history is the history of "jewish-zionist terrorism"[1], from its founding to its expansion and the current genocide. If you're not a fan of "theocracies" then you should clearly hate Israel, because it's a settler colonial apartheid occupation that justifies itself using the hebrew bible which its own secular founders classified as useful myths.

Everybody knows what you're doing. It's liberal zionist apologia disguised by feigning ignorance. Why would you spam comment after comment on this topic if you have "limited understanding" as you admitted? And by chance you happen to regurgitate typical zionist talking points.

There is still an enemy and government on the other side of this conflict, which have a duty to their people to surrender. I don't believe surrender is in their vocabulary though so here we are...one side fighting and invisible enemy on the other.

This comment is utter nonsense.

There's no genocide taking place from the Palestinian side against Israel.

That alone refutes everything you're saying and invalidates your entire perspective.

The film The Battle of Algiers shows this well.
