As if they got any choice lol

This article is nothing burger. You have to be an idiot not to understand that there is no civic choice here.

Obvious propaganda is obvious. The people of Gaza are paying the price of Israel's policy of deliberately targeting civilians with the intent to cause as much death and suffering as possible.

It's not a war. It's a genocide. Always will be.

[–] HurlingDurling@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

And always was

Wasn't the election that got them into power sus AF to begin with?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, and it was nearly 20 years ago, and they've only shored up their hold on power since. However, their popularity waxes and wanes with their fortunes; they unambiguously have significant grassroots support, unfortunately.

it's not like the people of Gaza can vote for someone else

[–] blahsay@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Hamas started this to cause maximum casualties for propaganda and maintain the war for the same reason. It's not like they were ever even trying to win.

who has more money and political control?

delete my comment below, why?

fuck you mod pussies

[–] blahsay@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

You're, right! The Saudis, Iran....USA? Hamas was never even involved!

Amazing to see people try to even contradict hamas.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But I'm just saying who has more money and political power?

Hamas is born from an abusive system everything you just said is exploiting those already exploited people.

This is Israel's fault.

[–] blahsay@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Wish I had a boogy man I could blame everything bad on! Zero accountability hey? Yeesh.

[–] Doom@ttrpg.network 2 points 4 months ago

Israel is responsible for the genocide in Gaza

[–] SuperSpruce@lemmy.zip 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Because Netanyahu and Hamas are secretly allies.

[–] sbrb@programming.dev 1 points 4 months ago (2 children)

What makes you think this?

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago (2 children)
[–] sbrb@programming.dev 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

indirectly boosting the militant organization

Maybe it's more complicated?

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

About as complicated as the CIA funding the Taliban, sure.

[–] sbrb@programming.dev 3 points 4 months ago

No explanation in the real world is monocausal.

[–] fukhueson@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

True, though I think "allies" is selling things rather strongly.

[–] n3m37h@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

Create a problem that you have a solution for. Bibi wanted West bank and to delete Palestine. Fund Hamas through various subsidaries. Invade, steal, profit
