    The monarchy has been hated since it was reestablished. Pre-referendum times, there are soccer final (la copa del Rey) between Catalan and Basque clubs, giving the back and whistling so hard to the Spanish anthem, that the Spanish National TV disconnected the live sound and played the hymn on top.

    There are also public cases of prosecution against people burning pictures of the (former) king, for a very useful law there is called “injurias contra la corona y la bandera”. And so on.

    After Franco, they didn’t do a referendum about the monarchy established by Franco because polls told they may lose it, in favour of a republic. You know, the so called “Democratic transition” was more of a “transaction”. Same Police, same judges, same symbols, same politicians, same richmen.

    October 2023 https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnewsvideo/comments/17m955y/north_gaza_is_more_beautiful_than_ever_blowing_up/

    “North Gaza is more beautiful than ever. Blowing up everything is amazing. When finished, we will hand over the lands of Gaza to soldiers & settlers who lived in Gush Katif.” - Israeli Minister of Heritage Amichai Eliyahu, states Israel’s objectives in Gaza.

    August 2023 https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20230803-israel-far-right-minister-calls-for-annexing-west-bank/

    The extremist minister called the Green Line, which separates the Palestinian territories occupied in 1948 – now Israel -from those occupied in 1967, “fictitious.”

    “I do not really think there is a Green Line. It is a fictitious line. This is our homeland. This is where the Jewish People arose,” he claimed.

    I wouldn’t cite a fascist if he wasn’t a minister of the Israel government. There is no self defense here, it’s a slow motion invasion that lasts decades, aka, colonization process. And there is resistance, some of that is armed and some of that is cruel and totally mislead in my opinion.

    You swallowed that there is no way Israel civilians will stop to be victimized. And therefore, let’s the others be killed. This is the typical dehumanization thinking of “the enemy”. It’s that thinking that governments with interests in other’s lands, resources, power, feed their citizens in order to get support for their wars.

    Really, make the exercise of swapping Israel with Hamas in your comments, and you will read a jihadist terrorist message. You mutually feed your dehumanization. Stop that! Jihadists and those who support their attrocities are the problem. Israel governtment and those who support their attrocities are the problem. You are part of the problem, can’t you see you see that? You can change something, then, gz!

    And no, I don’t know what is like to live under Hamas rockets, the same way I don’t know what is like to live under a criminal apartheid with racists checkpoints, land stealing, impune killings, house burnings, permanent harassment and imprisonment just for standing up even without self defense violence (rocks against soldiers that are shooting “us”?)

    You have commented nothing about all this long lasting violence. Good faith israelis are against ilegal settlements, occupation, military conscription, etc.

    Sorry you’re upset about Palestinians dying. It’s a sad thing. But it’s not going to stop Israel from defending themselves against a threat sworn to destroy them and all Jews.

    So you are not upset about that, then? Do you justify the terror, cruelty, destruction and in the end, the genocide in Gaza, because some a guerrilla from Gaza had inflicted terror and cruelty before? Which is the next step? Do you realize that Israel has killed more innocent people in this attack than Al-Qaeda did in the 11S in 2001 in NYC? (it was ~3000 people) And that even wasn’t as cruel because there weren’t people artifically starving, they didn’t destroy the hospitals, nor ny citizens weren’t closed as a herd between militarized walls with no actual escape?

    By your assertion, Hamas is an Israel puppet and this is their masterpiece coup de gras? I’m not sure why any of that would excuse literal terrorism? People are responsible for their own actions.

    Of course. I don’t defend Hamas. I’m blaming the Israel state for feeding them. They are corresponsible of the atrocities of Hamas, and are totally responsible for the palestinian holocaust they are perpretating.

    They could have chosen not to attack, but they didn’t. This is the consequence.

    Israel also can choose not to do mass-killings, it could discard mass-deportations (it plans deporting gazans to egypt sinai). It could stop the illegal and immoral settlements. It could stop all the oppression and violence it inflicts even to its own citizens, arabs and jews. Where in the world makes sense for you, blaming the entire palestinian people for the acts of a palestinian guerrilla, but you don’t even blame the israel government for ordering a genocide they are actually doing? If I acted like you, I would say that all israelians deserve to die, to be expelled from their homes, because, you know, their army are savaging palestinians, they shoot innocent children even in “not-so-violent” moments, harass and let harass farmers… But I don’t think that! I don’t want jew people to die, come on! your logic is totally flawed.

    Gaza is still standing, despite how eager you and others are to see Israel raze it to dust.

    Oh yes, sure. Tell it to the hundreds of thousands of inner displaced (quarter of gaza population already?).

    It means everything when the purpose of the conversation is to demonize Israel and ignore the motivation for their actions. It speaks to a level of barbarism far beyond what Israel would ever do, and again, despite how people on this forum want Israel to appear.

    You repeat the attrocities of Hamas, and say that Israel would not do that. Why don’t you speak of the attrocities that Israel is commiting that palestinians would never do? Again, look yourself to the mirror. Are you a white racist guy with no love for humanity?

    Is Dresden harboring terrorists?? It makes a pretty big fucking difference.

    That’s the trick. Terrorist are those who the media says it is. In my country, spraying some walls, voting, irrupting in fossil fuel conferences is considered terrorism. Read again my comments and look for “terrorism”. It doesn’t have a definition, so I don’t use it, or use it widely. Let’s speak of hatred. Of coaction. Of attrocities. Of crimes. Of innocent civilians killed. Then we may discover that white men racist attacks to refugee centers, check many of those boxes, the same boxes checked by those jihadist that are so inhuman. And wow, surprise, Israel is checking lots of boxes too!

    Will you question your definitions and conceptions?

    Are you trying to justify one atrocity with another atrocity? Do we need to play the game of who is more cruel here? Of the death toll? The video you sent says something about an holocaust in 2023. Well, I think we can count in this Holocaust the 8000 Palestinians killed, of which 2000+ kids and babies, neighbors of those he is crying for. Hospitals shelters, refuge camps bombed. 2M people threatened to death, to starving, incommunicated, ill with no more medical assistance. This Holocaust will only create more hatred and less respect for other’s human lives. The same dehumanization of the enemy that Hamas has been fed after decades of apartheid, land occupantion, harassment, impune settlers burning houses and shooting farmers. Yet another impune western colonization process.

    Moreover, Hamas has been used by Israel for decades to sabotage the process of creation of a Palestinian state, which, by the way, is part of the Oslo agreements and a consensus of a possible peaceful solution to the conflict. So, they go against this solution, financing a competing group that is against a laic state, and calls for an Islamic only state. Surpsrise, they eventually get to attack to a problematic scale, Israel plays the victim but then enters and destroys everything to the ground.

    What do frigging cooked babies atrocities matter in this context? How many times would you need to hear “yes, it’s inhuman, horrible”, to be able to advance the conversation to acknowledge all the atrocities, injustice and violence without dehumanizing Arabs in general? Imagine that instead of Arabs, Israel army bombed, say, the German city of Dresden, killing thousands of civillians because it’s a neonazi hotspot where international refugee centers are attacked. Well all white people are the same. Fuck them, right? It wouldn’t even be comparable as those neonazis assholes can’t play the role of the only armed resistance available for youngsters, that Hamas plays.
