'' “Decolonization” is just left-speak for ethnically cleansing the right people — which, we now definitively know, includes the Jews. '' What a load of shit. This is 70+ years of ethnic tension and conflict. It is colonizer vs settler, the oppressor vs the oppressed, it is only a matter of circumstances that one side of that conflict, and in this case the side doing the oppressing, is Jewish.

Too often the proponents of things like decolonization do not truly think through their positions. While it is very true that Western countries and empires have invaded, oppressed, even slaughtered populations in other parts of the world for centuries, pointing that out to support the oppression, even slaughter, of people living today is worst than victim blaming. It the support for the very evils that the West has done. Nobody's hands are without blood and creating more blood, just creates more blood.
There is a difference between supporting bloodshed and being against the status quo. Hamas is not the answer, but neither is the Palestinians silently resigning to being treated as subhumans by Israel. Articles like this promote a narrow-minded and one-sided way of looking at the situation as “someone is trying to eradicate Jews again” and the “good vs evil” when the Palestine/Israel conflict absolutely must be analysed with nuance and with all the factors in mind.
“Creating more blood creates more blood” again, acts of brutality and terrorism are not the answer, but neither is standing idly, which is what the rest of the world has been doing for more than half a century while the Palestinians suffered
Who takes children hostage you Leftist ghoul? What 'progressive' cause is raping civilians, torturing them? You lunatics have zero moral ground to stand on.
Did you read anything that I wrote or do you just parrot the same point over and over? Are you people allergic to nuance and looking at a complex situation as something that’s not black and white? Nobody is excusing the crimes of Hamas or gloating that civilians are being slaughtered.
And what about the militarist theocratic state of Israel conducting a slow genocide of the Palestinian civilians during the past decades? How do you propose to solve that part of the ordeal? Or do you think that Hamas sprung out of nowhere?
The sheer stupidity of calling Israel theocratic, while you stare at an Islamist totalitarian regime as repressive as North Korea, and as genocidal as ISIS.
What do you suggest? Israel take a massacre, accept a ceasefire, and leave an organization with genocide on its platform, and genocide in fact in its actions. Progressives can Westsplain that away, I'm sure, but that requires a level of delusion, a desire so deep to imagine Hamas away that it boggles the mind how idiotic you all can be.
Israel cannot continue to live miles away from that organization, with its current capabilities, waiting for it to regroup and strike again as they just promise in interviews. If you care about a peace process, that can be reset after Hamas is destroyed, not with it intact. If you gave a shit about Palestinian civilians you'd want the Islamist keeping them in an open air jail gone. It's not like Palestinians like Hamas, other than a small minority of psychopaths. Seems like more ghoulish Leftists like Hamas than actual palestinians.
First of all, I’m not a progressive and I’m not American. I can see how the prevalent Western narratives look from the outside and yall look ridiculous and hypocritical.
What do you think Israel was doing to the Palestinians before Hamas? Do you think they were spearheading the efforts towards a peaceful resolution to the conflict?
How do you feel knowing you use the same rhetoric the colonisers used to dehumanise the local populace when they dared to respond to violence with violence? The West is responsible for Hamas the same way they are responsible for the Ukrainian mess.
Do you know much at all about this topic you're opining about? Are you aware that Palestinians were massacring Jews more than a hundred years ago, long before the state of Israel existed, in 1920, 1921, 1929, 1936-1939? You think a genocide of Jews is a new goal of a new organization? It takes some serious disingenuousness of Leftists fed decades of pro Palestinian propaganda to ignore so many decades preceding 1967.

There's no nuance - Hamas cannot remain with its current terrorist capabilities.
And what about the militarist theocratic state of Israel conducting a slow genocide of the Palestinian civilians during the past decades? How do you propose to solve that part of the ordeal? Or do you think that Hamas sprung out of nowhere?
