 Ukraine 👍 Self defense against aggression 👍 Military industrial complex that couldn’t care less about Ukraine and the war beyond how they could profit from it 👎 Neoliberals that like Ukraine but support Israeli aggression 👎

I’m confused. I understand the Israeli/Palestinian conflict has been a thing since before our parents were alive but in the most recent era of it (2023-) wasn’t it started by Israel being attacked?

No. Israel had murdered several hundred Palestinians in the year prior to Oct 7th. They prefer to act as though history started on Oct 7th but it obviously didn’t.

I haven’t seen many people say that. Also, I ask a question in good faith and you (or someone else) downvotes it? That’s kinda petty ngl, especially when I’m trying to understand perspective.

I feel like I remember it in 2021 but it wasn’t quite covered in American news very much. You had to go to BBC or Al Jazeera

Lowkey, even if history started on Oct 7, the response is completely disproportionate and uncalled for
