[–] player1@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) Who elected Hamas? It’s interesting you say Palestinians have no other choice. Who governs the Palestinians in the West Bank? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] LadyAutumn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) Hamas cannot change the apartheid state. They have tried repeatedly since the mid 90s and every time America and Israel have sabotaged negotiations and refused to give Palestinians equal rights. Hamas was elected once and there have been no elections since. They also have no actual political power in Israel so it doesn't really make a difference who is elected. Netanyahu wants to commit genocide, he has no interest in changing anything. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] player1@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) Just so I understand your argument - Palestinians are not Hamas but Israel IS Likud. How many Palestinians have been protesting globally against Hamas? How many hundreds of thousands of Israelis have been protesting against Likud? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] LadyAutumn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I never said Israeli citizens were the Israeli state. The Israeli state is in fact a state. That state has legal power over all Palestinians. That state is denying Palestinians human rights. That state is orchestrating an attempt at genocide. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] player1@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) If Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians why is the population of Palestinians growing exponentially? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] LadyAutumn@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) Do you not understand how genocide works? They literally cut off all food water and electricity to the entire gaza ghetto like 3 days ago. They are about to launch the largest land invasion in the history of the state of Israel. They called Palestinians "human animals" on international TV. Theyve murdered men women and children indiscriminately in both gaza and the west bank. They've been emboldening racist Israeli citizens to launch attacks of their own on Palestinian citizens in the west bank. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] player1@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago* (1 child) If Al qaeda was based in Canada and they attacked the U.S. should the U.S. continue providing water and electricity to them? What other country bites the hand that feeds and then expects the status quo to remain. Think about that for a minute. Why didn’t Hamas, instead of building rockets, build a new power plant and water treatment facilities with the millions of not billions of aid that the international community has given in aid to Gaza?
