Israel and Palestine are both monoracial dinosaurs. They should just let their citizens start dating and the problem would go away.

I had no idea this whole thing started basically over covid restrictions. The geopolitical details in this video were quite interesting and something i rarely see talked about.

Guess this whole area is a powder keg and all it needed was a small shove.

Umm its a war (or at least an active armed conflict). Did you think that innocents don't die in war? Or that violence doesn't escalate by 1 side doing X and the other side doing Y in respone, and so forth?

If that didn't apply to this conflict it would probably be the first armed conflict in human history where that was the case.

> israel did this, palestinian civilians did that

Hamas. The terror organization linked to Iran. Hamas. Not civilians, terrorists are responsible here. No actor in this is innocent.

Hamas had this strategy for years, they can't defeat Israel, but dead children in Gaza are perfect to ruin Israel's reputation in the world. And that is the strategy Iran followed for years now, and it is a well documented strategy for ISIL/Daesh and Al quaida.
