Israel is built on stolen land, and they keep the Palestinians in Gaza in the worlds largest open air prison, under complete blockade. while in the west bank they contentiously steal more land, even demolishing schools and hospitals due to lack of permits they refuse to give out. They shoot journalists and protesting teenagers without ever punishing the soldiers. Repeat this for 60 years, combined with Israel actually supporting Hamad and this becomes inevitable.

Why did Israel support Hamas? They wanted to cause infighting between the Palestinian Authority in the west bank, Hamas and the secular left wing factions, which they succeeded in.

Israel prefers militant and violent opponents rather than reasonable secular opponents that would garner world sympathy.

There is nothing complicated or nuansed about stealing another people’s land and putting them in a concentration camp.

Our managers will not like that, we need some representation!
