Yeah sorry Hamas, no takesy backsies when you just murdered a bunch of civilians at a peace festival.

It's like your brother just stole your favourite toy and then he's like "ok now we can have a truce".

Except the toy was yours to begin with and your brother has been rubbing the fact he was able to steal it with outside support in your face while actively stealing more of your toys and you finally stood up and took it back from him.

Don't commit genocide if you don't want your own people genocided

It is so much more complicated than that. Both sides have done horrible things, but this last provocation was completely offside.

I wonder what other major event happened in the early 40's? That also was Palestine the territory of Egypt and Jordan, not an independent Palestian state.

Misleading on purpose perhaps?

Again, it is so much more complicated than it appears.

Ah, so it "being complicated" means it's ok for Israel to continue to steal land from the Palestinians. Gotcha.

Edit: and bomb refugee camps.

No evidence of 250 dead. Only videos of people running away and Israeli eye witnesses saying resistance fighters were kind to them.

Nice atrocity propaganda though.
