You have to learn English and the Anglo-Saxon culture while the rest of your country barely gives two shits about your culture and traditions, let alone trying to learn French.
But I really don't know what to think about all this.
All Western democracies have shown their support to Israel, and those with Palestine are countries that are mostly dictatorships.
I don't know, I just hope there is peace one day in the region.

You should look what pedo means in Spanish. For a good laugh.

War brings out the absolute worst in people, and if people expect every individual from an oppressed groups to behave in the upmost moral way against their oppressor then they need to look at history a bit more.

Being fair, he is asking a good question.
We know that mass rape and murder are permitted because the oppressed need to cause a little of chaos…

Whenever it’s been brought up in the past, there were two responses. First, any pro queer politics in Israel are pink washing. Which is apparently a thing and not a setting on bidets. Second, that mossad has a history of finding queer Palestinians and blackmailing them to become spies.

There's a vidoe of multiple cars on a road with civilian Isrealis shot by Hamas in their cars.
Why did watch that, I feel sick.
Better question is.. Why are you actively seeking out such videos?

The west sure as hell didn't ensure Israel should respect lgbt rights or be religiously tolerant or even be a democracy that everyone can participate in.
Also what American leftists want or stand for is immaterial because they have precisely zero power in their country so I don't know what you're talking about.

Resetera, which was apparently founded on everyone being equal and mods not being above the community.
The mask didn't just slip off, the cunt ripped it off and stomped on it.

Some real, "are we (Hamas supporters) the bad guys" energy from this post.
Zero0man banned only for two weeks but the localization guy banned for a a fucking month?  why Excel is not thread banned?
A lot of people have expressed what zero0man has said it but have not been banned because they didn’t attack an actual person living in the region. The dude has pointed out that even as bad as the conditions of Gaza are, you shouldn’t try to downplay mass rape and murder because “boiling over”.
Hamas just made the region more unstable for the interests of scumbag religious fanatics governments, the kind of governments that will do real trans genocide but is concern trolling pointing out the hypocrisy of leftist supporting or downplaying this governments actions.
What I’ll say about the boiling over justification, you’re seeing celebrations from islamists in western nations. US, UK, Canada, et al. As well as support in Qatar, Egypt, et al. Many living in first world conditions, or off oil money and slavery, are not quite boiling over the same way as people living in Palestine day to day.
That’s a distinction many ignore about how some tend to see the conflict. Not Israel vs Palestine. More like Israel, or the Jewish world, vs the Muslim world. The whole oppressed v oppressor thing is flipped. Some theories about why this attacked happened now was to prevent a potential Saudi and Israel agreement. Maybe John Kerry was right that nobody will allow peace to happen.
It's been seventy-five fucking years, at what point are these tactics against the Israeli oppressor supposed to start working? Or are we waiting on some other precondition like other countries embargoing Israel, capitalism finally collapsing from the contradictions or Phase Seven of the MCU?

All this wishy washy hand wringing about how rape is actually a normal way to fight oppression is really fucked up.

Quick reminder not to look at what you are actually supporting. Irony being, Hamas and Palestinian "journalists" filmed most of it themselves.

Well given how you run it now where you consider yourself an expert on every subject despite the ample and repeated incidents proving the opposite, and that your role is as some kind of morality police but without any fixed compass as to what moral behaviour consists of, and not only is the site a shit show but you endlessly complain about how making up the rules as you go along is really hard to administer, MAYBE YOU SHOULD TRY RUNNING THINGS LIKE A NORMAL FORUM and confine yourself to facilitating discussion by removing actual rule breakers, de-escalating tensions (particularly on miscommunications) and administrative duties like placing threads in the correct forum and closing duplicates.
Because you fucking dipshits can't legitimately complain about how your moderation lives are soooooooooo hard when you DON'T FUCKING CHANGE HOW YOU DO THINGS and the way you DO do things is FUCKING STUPID
also, spoilers: you were FUCKING SHIT at your retail job too - remember when you got all pissy because a customer put MONEY to COUNT on the COUNTER, the thing NAMED FOR ITS PURPOSE, in a PANDEMIC when it was good sense to minimise contact?

The way this is phrased makes it sound like the end of round Victory UI came up, and all the soldiers everywhere dropped their weapons and initiated RAPE TIME.
Which, like the war it was based on, is commemorated today by the ceremonial end of round tea-bagging
