But that would require actual good will. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] jimbolauski@lemm.ee -6 points 2 years ago (2 children) Your fatal assumption is that the Palestinians want peace too. They were given pipes to create water lines, they turned the pipes into rockets. You can't have piece when neither side wants it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] cecinestpasunbot@lemmy.ml -3 points 2 years ago (1 child) What do expect Palestinians to do? Do you want them to waste away drinking contaminated water because Israel attacked their sole desalination plant? That isn’t peace either. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] jimbolauski@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) There are reports of water pipes being made into rockets as far back as 2014. This was before the conflict even started. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] cecinestpasunbot@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) When do you think this conflict started? Because if you’re not aware Israel has been bombing Gaza for decades. The bombing of the desalinization plant I mentioned happened in 2021 and Israel has bombed water infrastructure in Gaza far before that. Don’t avoid the question this time. In such circumstances what do you expect Palestinians to do? Because as far as I can tell the only answer you have for them is death. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] jimbolauski@lemm.ee -1 points 2 years ago When do you think this conflict started?

Except this is total bullshit. There was an airport built in Gaza. Israel bombed it the next month to prevent Palestinians from ever developing outside of Israels occupational pressure. The amount of food and building materials amd other essentials being allowed into Gaza was deliberately limited to slowly degrade the living conditions in a way easily ignorable by the West. The smuggling Tunnels into Egypt were a great source of income for Hamas, by allowing people to smuggle in basic commodities. Meanwhile Israels "mowing the lawn" always revolved around slowly destroying Gaza and not allowing for rebuilding. The difference now is that they removed all restraint as the US and allies are allowing the total annihilation of all infrastructure, ethnic cleansing and genocide with impunity. permalink fedilink source parent
