This is the 4th ground invasion by Israel, and they are gearing up for a second occupation of Lebanese territory. Israel is using the same tactics as always when going in to occupy and settle land. You're forgetting that the 'big kid' has been the aggressor, been committing genocide for a year, apartheid for much longer, and has never stopped it's Settler Colonialist land grabs

You don't have a single thought in your head and the only thing you're covering it with is this haughty affectation.

I mean, this shit has been going back and forth longer than we’ been alive. Saying one side is the aggressor is using some pretty heavy blinders.

you're just being a dipshit fascist doing "it's too complicated to argue with so just let it happen" like with literally every other time 'the big kid' commits crimes against humanity

It's weird how we didn't see blood and soil nazis like you coming forward with "it's complicated" rhetoric when Oct 7 happened. Now that it's Israel wanting to annex more territory with terrorism and pogroms you're on board.

I'm not saying one is good and the other is bad. I'm pointing out that one is blowback from the other. Zionism, and it's Settler Colonialism, is the underlying cause of all this violence. And that needs to be addressed in order to end all the violence

One or Two State Solution

The settlements represent land-grabbing, and land-grabbing and peace-making don’t go together, it is one or the other. By its actions, if not always in its rhetoric, Israel has opted for land-grabbing and as we speak Israel is expanding settlements. So, Israel has been systematically destroying the basis for a viable Palestinian state and this is the declared objective of the Likud and Netanyahu who used to pretend to accept a two-state solution. In the lead up to the last election, he said there will be no Palestinian state on his watch. The expansion of settlements and the wall mean that there cannot be a viable Palestinian state with territorial contiguity. The most that the Palestinians can hope for is Bantustans, a series of enclaves surrounded by Israeli settlements and Israeli military bases.

Hamas officials should be held accountable for all war crimes committed, same as all Israeli officials. That said, there are many parallels between the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and Gaza.

In the Shadow of the Holocaust by Masha Gessen, the situation in Gaza is compared to the Warsaw Ghettos. The comparison was also made by a Palestinian poet who was later killed by an Israeli airstrike. Adi Callai, an Israeli, has also written on the parallels in his article The Gaza Ghetto Uprising and expanded upon in his corresponding video
