What if it had been in solidarity with Israel?
Sheesh. Flying out of O’Hare is bad enough without this nonsense
I think we're venturing into dodgy ground here mate if we're justifying atrocities like October 7th.

I think that train has left the station when people were turning a blind eye to abuses towards the Palestinians for decades.
Some even tried to justify that practice by victim blaming the Palestinians themselves.
You know the culprits like @Zatara being the chief among them.
Horrible stuff been going to in this part of the world for ages and the Palestinians have a hand in it but the biggest culprits have been the Israelis.
Difference is western media and political fraternity demonising Palestinians and turning a blind eye to Israel.
Hence the term western hypocrisy
Whoever did it would harm support for their cause and give fuel to their opposition.
Defending October 7th is the equivalent of someone defending the actions of Baruch Goldstein. So let's be very careful here.
Hamas are not just fighting for freedom and human rights, they also want Israel's ultimate destruction as a country.

I think you'll find that the biggest culprits are the Islamic Republic (Iran).
They are the ones funding Hamas and all the other proxies in the closer vicinity of Israel.
For the past 2 years theyve been stringing up protestors and youve seen what they do to their women.
Remove that dictatorship and you cut the head off the snake. At that point in these current times we can point fingers at others.
There is no other way (as far as i can see) for peace.

Depends on what the media establishment thinks, if they agree they bombard you with positive messaging about the protest.
If not these are all terrorist sympathisers who un American/British/French or whatever and needs to be put down for causing a disruption.
This will have a impact on public opinion so unless your directly impacted by this.

I wouldnt say Hamas are fighting for freedom, or human rights.
Just look at their leaders and then look at what they do to their own people and how they have used (stolen) donations.
They want the money Iran sends as well as the donations they steal from their people...plus they want to control Palestine.
But they can only do those things by creating problems for Israel (so Iran pays them) and keeping their people from having any freedoms or human rights.

Who defended Hamas here or justified their attack?
Name names
Yeah they do want Israel off the map which is totally absurd and wrong
But how is that any different to what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians right now ?
Israel does not want a Palestinian state at all so what do we call that ?
Well @Noisy noise annoys came close enough to it with one of his posts!
I don't agree with October 7th, but i also agree that the Israeli response has been too brutal and heavy handed.

Look at the Russian Ukraine war and how their sustained use has depleted the Ukrainian capability to deal with missiles.
It would take months of such strikes to deplete Israel's presumably larger capability than Ukraine plus they would send it back in spades.
Better this stops now. Innocent people in Iran and Israel will suffer and more than likely everyone in the region too.

That’s not the point I was making mate
Hamas have said they wanted to wipe Israel off the map which is wrong but what I asked you is how is that any different to what Israel is doing to the Palestinians by denying them a state ?
And settling on land while pushing the Palestinians off of theirs ?
