Yet you'll hear everyone say "Hamas is the reason for all the problems".

Well, Hamas doesn't exist in the west bank, so why are people there getting killed and their land stolen by Israeli settlers and the IDF?

Hamas exists in the West Bank but they’re not in power. Still wouldn’t excuse illegal settlements even if they were in charge

[-] blitzkrieg@lemm.ee 29 points 1 year ago

So, the problem isn't Hamas, the problem is Israel wants to invade Palestine and take all of the land. That is their true purpose.

And genocide the Palestinians.

Hamas is a problem too and funded through Iran so I think they’d still be an issue even without the settler bs

[-] blitzkrieg@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

We have just established that Israel wants to take all Palestinian lands, that is the problem.

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world -3 points 1 year ago

There can be and is more than one problem. Iran and their network of paramilitary forces throughout the region is a problem with or without Israel.

Without Israeli settler colonialism there would be no Hamas

[-] blitzkrieg@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

That's what most western people refuse to understand.

Are you saying that receiving money from Iran inherently makes one a problem?

Please stop justifying genocide

[-] fluxion@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yes please also stop justifying genocide by disagreeing with a basic statement like "HAMAS is also a problem"

Please stop using whataboutism to justify genocide.

[-] fluxion@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's not whataboutism, both are wrong.
