Many of us have misdirected our frustration with our circumstances by playing the victim and blaming foreigners. This tendency to point fingers at outsiders often distracts from the real issues at hand. The truth is that our struggles are not caused by foreign nationals but by deeper systemic problems that need addressing.

@Donna_Rachel_ @LBC @NickFerrariLBC You’re not okay if you don’t see the people who shot the cannons as the problem.

@ThatoNow @LBC @NickFerrariLBC Oh so you’ll make excuses for them turning their own population into cannon fodder. There’s a phrase for that: the bigotry of low expectations.
Grow up.

Exacerbated by the fact that Hamas embeds its military operations in civilian infrastructure.
They’re a smaller force, so of course they rely on guerrilla tactics, blending in and hiding in plain sight. That’s what any weaker side would do when facing an opponent backed by one of the most powerful militaries in the world.
The IDF then destroyed all infrastructure; hospitals and schools were reduced to rubble. Beyond the bombing, it cut off food supplies, leaving women and children to starve.
That’s not just warfare; that’s a deliberate and systematic attempt to wipe people out. In other words, genocide.

War.
The civilian casualty rate in Gaza is entirely in line with conflicts around the world. It's exacerbated by the fact that Hamas embeds its military operations in civilian infrastructure, effectively using the population of Gaza as human shields.

What do you call the mass killing of women and children, tens of thousands even by conservative estimates?
Especially when it’s carried out by the same force that has demonstrated the capability for highly targeted operations, bombs in pagers, tracking individuals with devices, and striking precise locations, killing high-value targets using bombs through windows of apartment buildings, not bringing the whole building down from hundreds of miles away.
That contrast is hard to ignore.

@matigary @CyrilRamaphosa South Africa descends into lawlessness because the government is not tough on crime.

@Donna_Rachel_ @LBC @NickFerrariLBC Or maybe people just hate evil acts no matter who does them, Christian, Jew, or Muslim, and perhaps people can differentiate between the state and the people. Not everyone who opposes this war is an antisemite.

@ThatoNow @LBC @NickFerrariLBC And maybe antisemites just hate Jews, no matter who they vote for. You’re feeding the crocodile hoping you get eaten last.
