    The zionists funneled the residents of Gaza at the Egyptian border, telling them that’s where they were allowed to escape.

    Then they bombed it.

    The world is literally watching a holocaust happen. Not just reading about it like in the 40s. But watching it. And liberals are either ignoring it or standing with the ones perpetrating it.

    Not a single person who stands with Israel should be allowed to forget what they supported.

      They did the same exact thing almost a century ago. It was the Red Army who brought the Holocaust to an end, not the West.

          One of the saddest facts that you can learn as communist about the history of the Palestinian occupation is that the settler colonial army was as successful as it was during the first few decades of its existence thanks to incorporating a large number of Red Army veterans with experience conducting operations on the eastern front in WW2…

        The music festival was one of the most egregious displays of “civilian” settler disregard for Palestinian life I think is even possible. A literal rave on stolen land next to the concetration camp filled with the people they stole that land from. And that is what western media uses as anti-resistance atrocity propaganda.

          Read a few interviews from their perspective too. They were all warned that militants broke out of Gaza a few miles away. The audacity to party right next to an open-air concentration camp is one thing. But they also knew there were violent disturbances.

          Can’t find the exact article at the moment, so feel free to help me out, but one survivor was quoted saying “This stuff happens there all the time.”

          Tinfoil time, but part of me almost suspects that the threat of an attack on the festival could have been underplayed by the IDF, just so they could have propaganda fodder.

      USian here. I have never been more ashamed of this country. If this leads to a larger conflict i would like to live in another country to be on the receiving end rather than fight for this atrocious empire.
