Comments by "" (@WarrenPeaceOG) on "The parallels between the Russia and Hamas invasions" video.
After the 1953 US/UK coup in Iran, and the decades of horror falling out from that - and after US/UK backed Iraq invaded Iran - portraying Iran as an aggressive danger is impressively and grotesquely ignorant. Hamas is the govt of Gaza, and Israel CHOSE THEM and funded them following a divide and conquer strategy, ie. to destroy the more moderate, credible, secular, mildly socialist PLO

Big question: How would Hamas - or any other Palestinian military force - NOT resort to terrorism? What's left of Palestine barely has a functional govt or basic infrastructure. Where would they keep their aircraft carriers? Bigger question: why does Israel resort to terrorism when they have a military? The answer to both is asymmetric warfare resulting from settler colonialism, military occupation and geography. With Gaza, the state of Israel is effectively at war with a city. EVERYBODY knows this! Why pretend we can't deal with Hamas because terrorism. It's a terrorist war by definition! Both sides resort to terrorism. But for the West, the people of Gaza are as invisible as those in Donetsk, who were shelled daily by Kyiv for 8 years while the West ignored it and pretended it's not happening. The people we ignore are not erased from history, they never existed in the first place
