If you only consumed reporting from some corners of the Israeli media, that's all you would have seen.

But over the border, amid the dusty ruins of Gaza, it was a very different perspective.

For all of the talk by Israel that it had decimated Hamas, members of the group with their distinctive green headbands were front and centre.

30k confirmed dead (severe undercount) and they didn’t meet their stated objective. And we financed the whole fucking thing.

Their stated objective was a lie, their real objective was terrorizing the Palestinians and committing genocide to take their land.

Revenge.

Let's not be afraid to say it.

Israel wasn’t after revenge, they’re the instigators.
