    This is just going to be another Korea. They still hate each other and the fighting will pick up again. History will repeat itself, etc.

    Seems a lot of people here don’t want the war to be over.

    Ya know you could get together with your activist friends and be happy? You don’t actually need to meet each over a shared hatred of people.

    So Israel is pulling its people out of occupied territory, providing restitution for war crimes and trying and punishing war criminals then right? Right?!

        Arguably there are still Israelis occupying Palestinian territory, roving Israeli gangs just murdered a journalist in Gaza, let alone the wider palestine

          Those were Palestinians living in Gaza, Doghmush clan. This might be news to you but not all Palestinians in Gaza are happy with the way Hamas governs the area.

          Now that Hamas has the ability again, they focus on oppressing Palestinians.

    We’re talking about a ceasefire here, not peace. Trump is being dumb as usual.

    I’d love for the ceasefire to actually succeed this time - hopefully perpetually, leading to actual peace.

    But that wouldn’t mean Palestine’s plight is over - that would only be the beginning for seriously working on a two state solution. And not a master and a vassal state either.

    Looking back almost a century, somehow I’m not too optimistic.

      I didn’t stop and verify, but I’ve literally just seen a post on here which says that Israel has violated the ceasefire 3 days running at this point.

    “awaits release of hostages” is innacurate at best and a lie at worst.

    It’s a trade of hostages.

    Isn’t Israel a compulsory-service country where all citizens spend a year training as a soldier? Its funny that they’re called hostages when captured, not prisoners. Hostages are when you kidnap non-combatants like poor people living without secure food or water … so exactly the opposite of what they’re labeling captives by the invader or the impoverished civilian defenders.

      These are the civilian hostages taken by Hamas on the October 7th attack, not Israeli POWs.

      The youngest Israeli hostage taken on 7th of October was less than a year old, I don’t think he already finished his compulsory military service.

      Israel is doing despicable things, but let’s not pretend that Hamas is innocent.

      I’ll add that from what I’ve seen, about half of the Israelis get an exemption for various reasons.
      (Physical or mental issues, religion - Muslims are exempted by default and almost all ultra-orthodox Jews, pacifists, etc)

          The reason your movement doesn’t get credibility is because you can’t recognize that massacring people because of their ethnicity (what Hamas did) is genocide. If you’re claiming that Hamas didn’t commit genocide while also claiming Israel has, that requires some serious mental gymnastics to reconcile. But you’re not even trying to reconcile the discrepancy in how you consider the the actions of Hamas vs. how you consider the actions of Israel. You feel like if you just shout loud enough, engage in harassment campaigns to intimidate people from discussing the topic, you can control the narrative.

          And you can control the narrative in small corners of the internet like this. But then what? You support a violent movement that tortures people to silence dissent. Do you ever ask “are we the baddies?” or do you continue down the dark path without questioning anything?

            Israel has been exterminating Palestinians since the Nakba. This didn’t start on October 7, 2023.

            Maybe you should ask your last question from yourself.

            What’s my movement?

            So yes you don’t actually know or want to acknowledge what genocide is.

            Do you ever ask “are we the baddies?”

        They literally killed two waving white flags.

        Like imagine you survive a bombing, get out, see you fellow soldiers flags, wave to them, and they shoot you.

        What amazing that no one talking about it like it never happened…
