Two key congressional Democrats have given their approval to allow the Biden administration to proceed with what is believed to be the biggest weapons package for Israel, expected to be worth more than $18 billion and include some 50 F-15 fighter jets.
Just in case you thought maybe the Dems had finally seen the light after Rafah. Nope! How about even more bombs for Israel?
Bruh, no one in modern day Israel or Gaza is fighting because of 5000 year old feuds. They’re fighting because one group displaced and started mass-murdering the other in order to establish an ethnostate.
Would you like to look into what the minority group and it’s situation was like in Palestine before this colonization happened? How the human rights were for this minority group? It was the exact same except the other way. Still keep on about how it’s all different now.
I will restate my point that if your taking a side in this that isn’t the humanitarian one. You’re on the wrong side of history. And back to my original sentiment that calling this an issue of colonization is not getting this argument anywhere.
You think that family members (and let’s be honest, “ancestral genetic brothers” are not actually family members on any psychological level) only have ever killed each other over religion? Not money? Not land? Only religion and ‘culture’? Please.
On a massive scale ongoingly for thousands of years? Yes. Let’s bring to light the many attempts at colonizing the Middle East by western powers, ie the crusades or Mandatory Palestine. These attempts were all money and land inspired and respectively very short and unsuccessful. There is no doubt in my mind that Western colonialism has wreaked havoc in the middle East for far too long. But to land those motivations on Jews and Palestinians (those who by birthright the land belongs to) doesn’t sit right with me. Let’s settle on the fact that Western intervention has been the real catalyst for power struggles there, while the violent puppets that play out the wars on the world’s stage are only being made into scapegoats in order to justify the greed and power grabs of outside interests.
