    How stupid do the people claiming that the rave/music festival that got caught in the assault was for solidarity with Palestine think we are?

    Like what, is the solidarity that they play the music so loudly that some people on the other side of the fence might hear a smidge?

    If its for solidarity, it would be inside Gaza with the Palestinians, or all the proceeds would go to Gaza and the festival might as well be held on the other side of the globe.

    Following Israel’s airstrikes in response, the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza reported an unspecified number of injuries among “many citizens”.

    It later said 198 Palestinians had been killed.

    Yousef Abu al-Rish, the top Palestinian health official in Gaza, stated that most casualties were from firefights inside Israel.

    Reporters for the Associated Press in the Gaza Strip saw funerals being held for 15 victims and eight other bodies in hospitals. At least one person was reported to have been killed in an airstrike on the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza. Four Palestinians were killed and five others were wounded in clashes with the IDF along Gaza’s perimeter fence.

    I wonder if this is another event in the cascade failure of the American empire. With so much of their forces pinned down in Europe and munitions depleted because of Ukraine, can the empire bail Israel out? Even if so, can it bail Israel out id Hezbollah joins in, and then if Iran starts interdicting American shipping through Hormuz?

    I know the disgusting Zionist entity has killed more Palestinians, but tbh I’m used to that, what remains so encouraging is that even them having killed 40+ settlers, this is much more than usual. Usually it’s 100s of dead Palestinians, maybe 1 or 2 settlers dead or wounded. This is easily the most successful campaign I have seen in a long time, and it deserves celebrating.

      They have captured many IDF soldiers, maybe even a general when they overran the Gaza IDF base. All their equipment captured too. Multiple tanks destroyed and crews captured. Entire settlements on the gaza border have been captured as well with the settlers sent running or killed. It will be a tough fight ahead but these victories must be invigorating after so many years of only petty successes.

    Disgusting beyond words seeing liberals treat Palestinians like they are cattle to be transported and slaughtered at will by Israel, and that this is a preferable state to be in compared to the obvious alternative of Israel switching into committing an immediate genocide.

    I can only scarcely begin to imagine what the lives of the people of Gaza feels like, and how they think about their situation on a day to day basis.

    But the alternatives here seem clear, either they win, or Israel crosses a line that forces external intervention, or just the entire world is either actively supportive of or passively accepting of the death of every single Palestinian living under occupation, and if the last thing is true, then what do you possibly do with that?

    The cattle option is not a non-genocidal conclusion either, and is already proven beyond doubt that the rest of the world finds it tolerable.

    Wait hold on, doesn’t Israel have mandatory military service for everyone?

    If that’s the case, why would anyone not see Israeli civilians as soldiers?

    May the evil terrorist state of Israel be erased from the face of this earth and Palestine be free to thrive as a nation.

    I don’t like Hamas but it’s entirely the Zionists fault that this organisation exists. They forced Palestinians into subhuman conditions which led to people Embracing religious extremism with a mix of national resistance.

    One silver lining about the ukraine meat grinder is that it’s depleted western weapon stocks (and proven that they’re definitely not unbeatable)
