The problem with conflicts in today’s modern era is the technology. It’s so easy to just turn on a camera and just shoot the dead kids, but nicely forget what happened before.
In case you haven’t understood I’m talking about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. I can’t understand how people have been manipulated and are now screaming “Free Palestine”. Are they ignorant, or Hamas is amazing at mass brain wash? Because one of those has to be, there has to be a reason for everyone to forget just how much Israel has held, monthly missiles (intercepted, yes, but still a threat and a risk for everyone) that wouldn’t cross to the northern part of the country, and all of the sudden Palestine launches hundreds of missiles in weeks to the whole country. Meanwhile, 3 teenagers disappear and Hamas gets blamed (IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, whatever bad happens on one side the other is blamed. again, are you stupid or just brain washed?) and of course with the fear of the missiles and the rage over the 3 dead kids, they attacked. How long can you poke a bear before it hits you?
HOW, just HOW can you say Israel is committing war crimes when Hamas was the one launching missiles to the whole country and then building their missile launchers and storage beneath schools and hospitals, and have those places nicely surrounded by kids with a camera nearby just waiting to tape the dead kids and the people crying.
What’s happening is awful, but fuck you if you think Israel has no right. Fuck you if you’re the one saying “Free Palestine”, get your facts straight.
Imagine yourself, in a country that is hated by every neighbor it has, gets hit with bombs and missiles more constantly than we seem to remember nowadays, wouldn’t be afraid? Wouldn’t you want your government to do something? Wouldn’t you want to be defended? Get off your high horse and open your eyes.
It’s a big problem, no doubt there. Both sides committed crimes, surely. Sadly only one side is getting seen, the worst is that no one can see it. How can you not see that nowadays, in war, the side with the most dead kids and footage wins support?
WAKE THE FUCK UP.
