Last thing I remember yesterday many condemned Israel for announcing it's land development program that is gossiped as planned on occupied territories. Today there were news of a shitbag minister who voiced a plan to take the West Bank under a military rule (and to convert it into profits?), and I don't see many support to him there as well. Would it be too cynical to ask wtf these settlers would be doing there?

Condemning israel is like condemning Russia when they kill civilians. Rather easy. Of course people were praising israel initially but we're past that.

The fun part is now the Ukrainan resistance is doing what the Palestinian resistance was doing and asking why people react so differently.

Where's the fun part? I oversimplified this comparison because I felt you did so too.

The fun part is watching people do mental gymnastics to condemn Hamas but praise Ukraine. Both have committed war crimes while resisting occupation, but we seemingly only care when one of them does so.

Wait, what side you care about? It seems I've lost you.

Does it matter? A discussion is not about signalling that you support the correct side even though social media seems to think so.
