    People want revolutionaries under constant oppression and inequality to fight a “fair, modern war” against one of the most well-funded militaries in the region.

    Are people stupid? Palestine, unlike Ukraine, doesn’t have the privilege of fighting an equal war.

      One could say just fight against those doing the oppression then. Its not just cowardly to hunt and kill innocent civilians, it’s inhumane. The same point goes to both sides. Israelis killing hamas terrorists is a-OK from me. Collateral damage not so. Hamas terrorists killing innocent civilians is just as bad. This isn’t even collateral damage, they intentionally sought them out to send a message.

        Hamas will use Palestinian corpses to bury Israel, and Bibi is undoubtedly salivating at the chance to wipe the Palestinians out because he’s, ironically, seemingly after a Jewish ethnostate.

        Israel conveniently has a forever enemy in Hamas, who give no shits about Palestine. It’s all a big game and everyone loses.

      Ukraine absolutely fought the Russian advance to a standstill in an “equal war.” They are currently retaking ground in an “equal war.”

        Nobody said “white privilege”, you conservative snowflake. The simple fact is that revolutions are messy, even completely justified ones.

          Hamas isn’t acting in a revolutionary capacity, they would sacrifice every last Palestinian for the chance to kill one more Israeli. Acting like they fucking care, give me a break. They’re just animals.
