    Isreal wasn’t ruling over Palestine when they were attacked.

    Why would Palestine/hamas invade a city in isreal and shoot everyone they could if they did not want this war? Palestine set the rules for this war. Surprise attack. Gun down everyone. After setting up the appearance of being in a truce.

      Bro what? The guards at the world’s largest open-air prison don’t actually run the prison?

      Israel’s sweeping restrictions on leaving Gaza deprive its more than two million residents of opportunities to better their lives, Human Rights Watch said today on the fifteenth anniversary of the 2007 closure. The closure has devastated the economy in Gaza, contributed to fragmentation of the Palestinian people, and forms part of Israeli authorities’ crimes against humanity of apartheid and persecution against millions of Palestinians.

      Israel’s closure policy blocks most Gaza residents from going to the West Bank, preventing professionals, artists, athletes, students, and others from pursuing opportunities within Palestine and from traveling abroad via Israel, restricting their rights to work and an education. Restrictive Egyptian policies at its Rafah crossing with Gaza, including unnecessary delays and mistreatment of travelers, have exacerbated the closure’s harm to human rights.

      Israel maintains an illegal inhumane and internationally condemned blockade of Gaza. There is no “Palestine,” there are merely bantustans. You haven’t answered if you condemn the revolt of oppressed and imprisoned people yet

      Oh my god open a fucking history book.

      NO INVESTIGATION, NO RIGHT TO SPEAK

      Unless you have investigated a problem, you will be deprived of the right to speak on it. Isn’t that too harsh? Not in the least. When you have not probed into a problem, into the present facts and its past history, and know nothing of its essentials, whatever you say about it will undoubtedly be nonsense. Talking nonsense solves no problems, as everyone knows, so why is it unjust to deprive you of the right to speak? Quite a few comrades always keep their eyes shut and talk nonsense, and for a Communist that is disgraceful. How can a Communist keep his eyes shut and talk nonsense?

      They didn’t gun down everyone they could see. They conducted a highly planned military operation against the IDF. The vast majority of the 700 civilians were killed when the Israeli military opened fire on everything that moved. They used Apache helicopters to fire hellfire missiles and 30mm high explosive auto cannons and Merkava tanks to fire 120mm high explosive shells into groups of civilians.

      The israelis quite literally did exactly what you accuse the resistance of.

      So you seem to be in the age when elder millennials start losing cognitive curiosity and comprehension in favor of dogma and selective narrative seeking in favor of empiricism.

      How do you dismiss accusations of genocide except for ignoring the evidence and associating accusers with caricatures of 2013 meme culture SJWs?
