There, that ought to solve the Israel/Palestine issue and prevent future conflict from happening again.

Could say the same thing about the Hamas invasion

[–] FaceDeer@kbin.social 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yup. Nobody's doing the things that might actually work.

[–] S_204@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nobody will until Hamas is removed. That's a reality people refuse to acknowledge.

They're not freedom fighters, they're terrorists. They're the same fucking thing as Isis and they're proving it in real time right now. They need to be replaced so Palestinians can have a chance.

Easier said than done, though. Hamas has popular support from the Palestinians so "removing" them isn't as simple as just killing or imprisoning their current leaders, if nothing changes the Palestinians will just put new equivalents back in charge. Even if the specific name "Hamas" isn't being used it'll be the same thing under the hood.

The overall situation needs to change somehow, to change what the people want out of it. I have plenty of ideas, of course, but I'm no expert and have no influence so I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Palestine never stood a chance :/

[–] flossdaily@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I feel really bad for the 25% of Palestinians who don't like Hamas.

Innocent civilians getting their lives torn apart due to the complex situation in the middle east. Both sides get sympathy from me.
