I don't mean to be all political, but I do not think killing over 3,000 children, including premature babies, is the best way to show that you condemn terrorist violence.
A person driving a truck with right-wing stickers pulled a "splatter ball gun" on pro-Palestine protesters at a rally. Several armed rally goers pulled their own weapons, and forced the person to drop their weapon and also remove their mask.

I am begging you all once more to understand - the point of bringing up the decades long and systematic abuse, apartheid, and Occupation by the Israeli government of Palestinians ISN'T to "excuse" Hamas.

I would like to remind everyone saying Netanyahu needs to get rid of Hamas, (hence the killing in Gaza), that Netanyahu has been propping up Hamas for YEARS and is still opposed to a functional government in Gaza post-Nakba II. If you're angry that the Palestinians haven't got rid of Hamas, you need to put some of the blame on Netanyahu.
This is Rachel Corrie. Twenty years ago she was run over by an IDF armed bulldozer while trying to protect a Palestinian village. Remember her name. She is alive in the struggle.
Remember the weeks of coverage and outrage when Nôtre Dame burned down?
Just a few which have been destroyed during the genocide.
