  • At this point the Israeli government are terrorists because of the genocide they are causing. But I’m now reluctant to give them that classification only because they are a body of government that represents a country. The Houthis and Hamas groups don’t really represent any country. They certainly don’t represent Gaza because they’re also exploiting them and decided to kill many innocent people, the event that started this whole war.

    Unless you’re saying that Hamas is the representative of the Gazan people and so that makes all of Gaza responsible for the attack on Israel?

    The two groups in power in this situation are both horrible and currently Israel is doing unforgivable acts of eradication that is only going to further the hate they get from everyone that they’re trying to destroy. But let’s not think of this as “good guys vs bad guys”. There’s no good side, both are horrible, and innocent people are paying the price.



  • Man I got downvoted to oblivion and banned from some instance for calling them terrorists just a month or so ago.

    Someone claimed that “at least someone has the guts to stand up to violence” or something regarding the Israel-Gaza conflict. I said no… The Houthis are terrorists, and so is Hamas, but what Israel is doing in Gaza is also horrible.

    I said the real victims are the innocent Gazan people who are trapped in a fight between two extremist sides, Israel and Hamas. Neither side has the best interest of Gaza in their minds.

    I got downvoted and banned for saying that lol.

    Edit: I didn’t use the word “terrorist” for Israel only because they have an official, recognized government that represents millions of people. The Houthis and Hamas groups aren’t recognized as a government that represents people. Hamas has exploited Gaza for decades, let’s not pretend as if they’re some good natured freedom fighters. If we can call the government of Israel evil for committing this genocide, then we should also hold Hamas and Houthis accountable for their evil. It’s not a black and white situation.
