I visited that kibbutz. The propaganda levels were staggering.

I have absolutely no doubt.

Israel has relied on pushing the narrative that any and all atrocities and crimes against humanity they commit can be justified by they started it.

Looks like RaymanNumbers blocked me, so I cant clarify my post in that topic. Ill just say this:

It goes without saying that crimes against humanity are utterly abhorrent and should be condemned by any decent person, no matter who commits them.

I pointed out that both sides in the conflicts up to and including those in 1948 committed outrages. I did so as additional context, and to point out how fucked up the situation was.

Pre 1948, the Jews settling in Palestine decided they owned the land and that the Palestinians were interlopers and invaders, that they were fighting for their homeland and that anything was acceptable.

Unsurprisingly and understandably, the Palestinians felt like they were fighting for their homes.

Not to ameliorate in any way the guilt of any party, or in any way ignore the horror of what the topic was about. The massacre was absolutely fucked up, and should be exposed. That there is a systematic refusal in Israel to admit that the massacre occurred speaks volumes about the narrative that the government and the IDF try to push.

How people could flee marginalisation, pogroms and outright systematic genocide and then start doing the same thing to people living in the place theyve decided they have a historical claim to is mind-boggling.

I like to stick to light hearted shitposting and dont really care about what happens on here, but I dont want people to think I support that shit.
