And following your thread. How would you suggest Palestinians free themselves from the prison they’re all living in?
Or should they just be content with their lot?
Conflict is messy. People die. The nature of assymetric warfare necessitates a specific kind of fighting. And that’s what this is, really. Unless the Palestinians have bunkers full of modern military hardware they can use to go toe to toe with Israel with.
Killing 250 civilians by targeting a music festival and slitting the throats of civilians on the street and spitting on their corpses isn’t a result of conflict being “messy”. Stop justifying deliberate and systematic terrorist activity
Assymetric warfare is ugly as fuck because it has to be. And this conflict is assymetric as hell.
Both sides are trying to demoralize the enemy to gain what they want. War is diplomacy when all other methods have failed after all.
Unless Israel or the =est of the world wants to give Palestine an enormous cache of high tech weaponry they’ll fight like this because because it’s one of the few ways for them TO fight.
So they commit atrocities and Israel commits atrocities and round and round it goes
Saying war is messy is one of those things. Like “friendly fire”. Like all language describing all forms of war it fails utterly to convey the senselessness and inhumanity of the darkest parts of our nature.
There are no good sides of bad sides in this conflict. Each side is both, and the bitter reality is that a state of war or armed conflict is by its very nature atrocious. There’s just the desd, the living. And those who have been left behind.
Your first sentence captures it. All of this is driven by ignorance and religion, it’s the same shit that’s plagued that part of the world for generations
I hear this argument a lot.

But maybe there’s a better way. So what is it?

The better way is to not make memes they fully blame only one side.

You don’t think the massive poverty, starvation, and lack of access to water and sanitation might play into it too?
The lack of progress caused by one problem is wholly responsible for the other.
Israel controls all of the water, food, and resources going in and out of Palestine. The condition of Palestine has been inflicted on them.
