The speech in question https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKSH7wJiqYK/
Wow, that's a lot of hatred against a country and a nation. "Genoside" claims, several times. Still no mentions of how this yet another war started on the 7th of October. 🤦
No one is upset that Israel wanted to do something about being attacked, but what’s happening is so wildly disproportionate. If hamas did that in any other country and that country decided to go full scorched earth in retaliation no one would support that yet somehow a single attack justifies what’s going on now?? If someone eggs your house do you hunt them down, burn down their house, kill them then do the same to all their relatives?? No obvious that’s insane and that’s essentially what’s happening here, the attack was wrong but two wrongs do not make a right and the force of the response is so far above uncalled for
They know. They're being purposefully disingenuous and dimwitted. We all know that white phosphorus has rained from the skies since 2005. We know that every inch of settler encroachment was paid for with blood sacrifice not by the settler, but with the blood of the native people of the region, and this is all perpetrated as a holocaust on the altar of Zionism.
This is NOT what happened, you must be trolling or delusional.
So... What are your suggestions actions that are not disproportionate?! I have none, which would be adequate against the intentional atrocities by hamas and other paramilitaries.
What happened the 5th of October, do you even know?
