But what happened to the security infrastructure that Israel is so proud of

Sometimes things need to magically "fail" so leaders can get the war that they want, but can't openly start.

Especially when they're in trouble for corruption charges and making sweeping changes to their country's justice system to help themselves at the detriment of their democracy?

The Israeli far right and Hamas are symbiotic, they justify each other's rule and keep the other in power

That is just the thing. It was the same with GB and the IRA. Terrorist organization and the hard-line governments they oppose have a simbiotic relationship to their mutual benefit and the detriment of anybody else.

Do you victim blame rape victims too?

[-] PupBiru@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago

the victims are israelis; the government of israel is a separate entity… heck, the people in charge in israel are separate entities again

[-] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago

The only victims here are both the Israeli and Palestinian citizens, who have more accurately been gangbanged from both sides by the IDF and Hamas.

Nice false equivalency and misinterpretation of my point.
