As The Intercept pointed out this week, this is Israel's 9/11 in that it is a horrific event they didn't see coming, but when you stop to look at the powder keg they created, they absolutely should have.
The bigger problem is that they probably knew. They where informed by Egypt intelligence...
If that is true, then they might have let it happen as an excuse to take Gaza in retribution
Let's not spread conspiracy theories without good sources
US Congressional members with security clearances corroborated this, did they not?
15 years is a woefully short time frame to look at in a conflict that goes back hundreds if not thousands of years...
This conflict started in the late 40s. Less than 100 years.
I mean I'm not gonna waste my time trying to educate you on this but you're wrong. Go read some books, watch some lectures, listen to some podcasts.
You're a moron who fell for the natural enemies myth. Jews, Christians and Muslims all lived in Palestine peacefully before the Nakba.
Don't call people morons when you're completely ignorant.

Edit - Folks, how is it controversial that this conflict extends further into the past than 1948?
You are not allowed to say something against Palestine on Lemmy. Sometimes not even against Hamas.
Not sure if that's propaganda bots, anti-semitism, or people generally having this biased view.
In Germany Palestinian activists were celebrating Hamas attack on Israelis. And anti-semitic attacks in the public and even schools increased.
Israel: Uses Iron dome to protect civilians, counter attacks when attacked
Palestine: We have more victims 😢
This kind of visualization is not aiming to be informative. It's trying to be a propaganda and I genuinely hate that.
A little more nuanced than that.
Where did Israel come from? Who lived there first? Why was Israel set there and who deemed it all legal?
Imperialism.
People native to the area are shoved aside, money is sent to force those people being shoved aside and nobody is supposed to care they are shoved aside.
I agree chart pushes a narrative but the narrative is not "Palestinians are crybabies about missile strikes"
Jews are natives to that area as well. It wasn't just the people who today call themselves Palestines.
On this chart, where is the line showing babies and children beheading?
I always think to myself "No one could possibly believe such blatant propaganda" and then i read comments like these. Why behead them? Why don't you behead the adults? Do you carry a dedicated baby knife for that?
It's not like they'd be innocent without beheading babies... But i guess dehumanizing them like this makes it easier to justify the atrocities that are sure to be commited as a reaction to this.
It kinda makes me wonder how much of the things i assume to be true are the product of propaganda aswell.
They intentionally slaughtered a massive amount of civilians in a blatant act of terrorism. The people that did this don't believe Jews to be worthy of living. True or not anyone who can believe and do these things isn't too far off from being capable of beheading babies.

Yes they did. So did the israely military in Gaza.
The people that did this don't believe Jews to be worthy of living.
I wonder why. Not saying i agree but i understand their anger and frustration. What growing up in an open air prison does to a mf...
True or not anyone who can believe and do these things isn't too far off from being capable of beheading babies.
What ever helps you justify the indiscriminate violence Israel will be unleashing on the palistinian population. Realisticly there is no way to distinguish between Hamas fighters and civilians. But i guess those are 2nd class civilians anyway, or are Hamas themselves, right?
