All of this after “getting angry” with Israel

    I’ll never understand why people have completely made up their mind on this issue and discard all nuance. Everyone should know by now how much disinformation encircles this debacle. There’s only two primary sources here for 99% of the information that gets reported- Hamas and the IDF.

    I’ve also seen far too many people retrospectively hold modern Israel accountable for actions that occurred 80-120 years ago. This was long enough back that there were still Empires and colonies in existence.

    Those aid trucks aren’t going to bomb themselves.

    Israel survives on US aid to commit its crimes against humanity.

    As tone deaf as this seems, F-15s don’t have any use in the Palestinian conflict right? And despite the terrible things they are doing to Palestinians, we still need support against potential treats from Russia and others via Israel, also I assume this deal was long in the making… I’m glad to be educated if I’m missing the point here
