People have such difficulty acknowledging that neither side in this war is righteous, and both do horrific shit, but it doesn’t warrant a genocide.
Saying “but Israel” whenever anyone critiques Palestine for forcing 25% of all girls into marriage, murdering LGBTQ people, and murdering non Muslims is such a lame cop out.

Your point could be made for all of history. People seek some kind of saintly nation/people who did it right for a period of time, and it does not exist. Rather than seeing that as woeful, it’s actually quite the opposite. We know all the different ways to do things wrong. Just don’t repeat the mistakes of the past.

I mean cultural differences aside (I obviously disagree with the issues raised about Palestinian culture) I think it’s clear that the Palestinian movement is solidly more geopolitically righteous, theyre the ones facing disproportionate aggression, land theft, genocide…etc. It’s not a 50/50 split in that regard
