You don't support the actually existing fight for Palestinian freedom. You don't support the only hope Palestine has of being free.
Do you just want them to peacefully die?
Stop looking for easy answers.
If the only hope is an internationally decried terrorist cell then I feel really bad for the poor people of Palestine that are stuck in the middle.
Do you think I don't feel bad that Palestinians must resort to violence to be free of a genocidal settler colonial entity? I don't like that they need to fight their way out of this.
I just recognize reality.
I don't think the current state and progress support your argument. We can see what they brought to all of Palestine, all of the civilian Palestinians. It's certainly not freedom.
You want them to die in terror? Not just those fighting, but all of them? That's what's happening right now.
The genocide started long before Oct 7th. This is an acute period of hightened violence, but Israel was murdering and kidnapping and displacing and otherwise terrorizing Palestinians every year before this too. Why do you think Palestinian resistance exists?
Israel is in a weaker position than it ever has been before. Europeans are ending trade and arms deals with them, the majority of Westerners oppose arming Israel, Israelis are fleeing Israel to return to their secondary countries, this is the beginning of the end.
The US/Israel occupation is going to lose.
Support resistance or stand aside.
