Every day they get bolder and more dangerous. If we keep tolerating these terrorist recruits and radicalized extremists then soon we’re going to be awash in violence.
MAGA storms the capitol, MHGA storms the white house. Same nuts, same radicalism, just different sides of political extremism!
We’re 70 years past this excuse for terrorism, which I’ll happily debate with you separately if you want but it’s just a distraction from the truth, which is that Israel is defending itself, is not committing genocide, has a right to do so, and is a state recognized by the UN that is defending itself from terrorists. Trying to hinge the points you made on “stolen land“ leads to “this terrorism is okay because…”, I don’t think you’re making that argument–but if we debate it I can get there in an honest discussion.
Generations have come and gone now who have grown up in Israel and Gaza (also why there has to be a special, unique ONLY to Palestinians definition of refugee, otherwise there’d only be a couple hundred thousand Palestinian refugees left by the UNHRC definition that the rest of the world and people in the world fall under).
Also, for added nuance and because it’s directly related, read about the 900,000 Jews whose land was stolen and who were exiled post-48 as revenge by the Arab and Muslim countries, here’s a link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_exodus_from_the_Muslim_world
I’m extremely familiar with the creation of Israel, the Nakba, and even before that pre-Israel, and before that, including the fall of the Ottoman empire and earlier. I’m happy to debate with you about it. There’s plenty of ugly on both sides, even back then. And stealing land is a super reductive and dishonest claim. A half-truth to make a point doesn’t make that point valid.
This dictatorship is the most popular group among Palestinians in both the West Bank and Gaza. They have overwhelming majority support. If you held an election today, especially since they spiked in popularity with all the support from the residents on Oct 7th, they’d easily win re-election.

Ok, let’s forget about 70 years ago and talk about the illegal settlements Israelis have made on Palestinian land in recent history and the continued border expansion. That’s land theft unless you subscribe to Putin’s “it was Russia once so we’re taking it back” mentality.
It’s not self defense to bomb civilians, tell them to move, and then bomb their caravan to safety. It’s also not self defense to kill journalists.
Just to clarify, you want to legitimize and apologize for terrorism and targeting civilians over land claims, yes or no?
Just to clarify, you want me to defend a stance I’m not taking, yes or no?
This is getting old, I asked you what your stance was, you’re being intentionally obtuse. If you’re just trolling, let me know and I won’t feed you anymore.
If you’re serious, clarify, the point to which your’e responding to with continual talk about land theft, is that I said it’s not justification for terrorism. You continue to respond with a different claim about land theft. I ask you to clarify your stance. And this is the last time I"m going to ask you:
Do you believe that land theft is justification for terrorism? It’s a simple yes or no question, if you can’t answer it–that’s an answer itself and all I need to know.
You did not ask me what my stance was. You took what I said, added your own shit, and asked me if I’d defend it. That’s not arguing in good faith - if anyone is trolling here, it’s you. Not sure why you conflated with “it’s land theft to take over land that’s not yours” with “I support terrorism”
No need to reply, I’m done with talking to you. Enjoy your self-imposed exile!
LOL, it’s rough getting called on your bullshit. I like that there’s a written record above, and that we’re not in a MHGA friendly community where you can have shit removed or muted. Bye bye troll.
EDIT: most notable is that you can’t condemn terrorism. LMFAO, just wow.
I can and do condemn terrorism, dip shit. I’m just not playing into your bait and you’re so mad about it lol
Have fun jacking off to your ego
[Edit] Just to clarify, you think indiscriminately bombing civilians is the appropriate response to an act of terrorism, yes or no? Oh am I putting words in your mouth? Too bad I am asking you to clarify your stance! And you won’t say that bombing civilians is bad! Checkmate!
Bombing civilians is bad!
Israel is not doing that. They’re trying to destroy Hamas, who collocates to use civilians as human shields. For your enlightenment, this is a war-crime. Civilian deaths are one of Hama’s most effective tactics. They’ve created many terrorist sympathizers and radicalized a lot of low information kids like yourself! Civilian deaths are on Hamas and their supporters who shelter and support them.
And yes, if this is the first war you’ve ever seen or studied, then you might not know that collateral damage happens. Definitely don’t learn about either of the world wars (spoiler alert: massive collateral damage). Compounding that is the fact that Gaza is the densest urban fighting seen in our lifetime. In fantasy hatred land, maybe you don’t understand that this actually significantly impacts any conflict there. However, if Israel were indiscriminately bombing civilians, then there’d be a LOT more than ~10,000 casualties (literally magnitudes more). This kind of stupid nonsense is exactly why a non-echo chamber environment is necessary, so you can’t pretend that there is intentional bombing of civilians—regardless of what your Hamas allies tell you. And so getting called out on that nonsense can’t get muted or banned in order to shield the Hamas recruits from reading dissent.
