"pression carpet bombing" as the genocide supporters might call it.

It doesn’t matter anymore. Really it doesn’t. Palestine granted freedom to the world. Freedom to finally see what our world truly is. The playground of the powerful. Those in Gaza I feel are actually lucky, it’s what happens now to the rest of us that worries me. We can’t go back as a species anymore. We can’t go back to humanity when we have excused the most brutal genocidal regime and allowed them to do what they want. This is the end now. If and when power shifts, the brutality will be tenfold. There are no rules anymore. No laws. No respect. Gaza showed us the monster, and the world either turned their face or accepted the monster with open arms.

This is so true. I was just telling my husband the other day. We lost all humanity. Now we are next. This is so sad. After all the previous war crimes that have been committed you’d think there’s no way anyone would get away with shit like this again. But here we are.

It’s not just that. It’s the dissolution of trust. Like we thought we were the good people. That our countries in the west actually wanted to lead humanity. Instead it’s revealed that the west is cruel and callous and corrupt. We can’t back Israel and then pretend that Russia or China or Iran are bad, we are all bad. That’s the point. We have no more humanity left. We have bombs, money, power and greed. I don’t know what comes next. Maybe not now but for future generations. It’s why I think the US is doing what it’s doing now, blindly supporting and enabling Israel, cause it’s a message that they’re going to burn the world if they ever feel really threatened. And that’s a very scary thought.

You have forgotten that Gaza broke the peace, attacked Isreal, killed over 1400 people, raped and burned civilians, and still holds over 100 hostages. Did you forget that?

No, I didn’t forget what Hamas supposedly did. I never saw the pics of the dead Israeli’s. Maybe if I did I’d be more sympathetic towards them. All I see are dead and wounded Palestinian children. Not to mention all the aid that’s being destroyed by Israeli settlers. So I cannot sympathize with murderers who blatantly get away with it. Sorry. Also, are those 100 hostages more important than an entire civilization?

You have forgotten that Gaza broke the peace

What peace? The period where it was only Palestinians that were killed indiscriminately? Where only they suffered? Where they were under a constant, brutal military occupation?

If you call that peace, then you are perfectly fine with violence, murder, rape, and hostage taking as long as it doesn't happen to the people you either like or can find familiarity with.

Fucking broke the peace...

Have the day you deserve.
