It's truly baffling to me that anyone who suggests they believe in some kind of left politics would make a statement like this. Do they not reflect on what it must be like? Set aside that this is the only home many Palestinians have known, they're literally stuck there. They're blockaded and fenced in and coralled by military outposts, and not even the arab states that support them want them as refugees. Nobody does, nobody wants them. They're entirely fucking stuck there, and they're blockaded and dirt poor and at the mercy of people with openly genocidal intentions against them. I hate today because I really don't want to spend all of my time looking at this shit, but it is hard to look away. How can a person so callously "condemn" the Palestinians that choose violence, regardless of who it is pointed at, when THAT is their condition. They're in a hopeless situation and the big liberal democracies all talk about them like criminals for cynical geopolitical reasons. How maddening must that be?
