As professor Farnsworth once said, "Now, now, perfectly symmetrical violence never solved anything"

Gandhi was a total piece of shit pretending to be one of the good guys. Which I guess is pretty relevant to this conflict.

Also that quote is from Exodus.

Only the eye for an eye was the bible, the world goes blind was Ghandi.

If you think Gandhi was bad, you should look into Mother Theresa - the woman was literally a Disney cartoon villain.

I'm not convinced she wasn't a sadist and got joy from the suffering of others.

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 11 months ago

I'm convinced that she was.

On a long enough timeline everyone is a piece of shit. You on the other hand, are one right now.

Gandhi on Zionism:

My sympathies are all with the Jews.

…

But my sympathy does not blind me to the requirements of justice.

…

Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs. What is going on in Palestine today cannot be justified by any moral code of conduct. The mandates have no sanction but that of the last war. Surely it would be a crime against humanity to reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews partly or wholly as their national home.

Edit: This was 1938, btw. 10 years before the Nakba.

The post doesn't mention Hamas, it's talking about the previous killings of people in gaza. Not everyone in Gaza is in support of Hamas

Ghandi abused his wife regularly and ended up killing her by way of refusing to let her go to a doctor. I'll not be accepting any of his quotes, thanks.

Treat people like animals for decades, it's no surprise how they act. Israel is at fault for both sides deaths.

I personally don't like this "one site bad" thing(in this conflict at least). Of course, in terms of killed persons Israel is the bad guy, but also the things the Hamas did are pretty fucked up. I personally came to the conclusion that both sides are bad, Israel is allowed to defense itself against this brutality but shouldn't take the opportunity to absolutely fuck Palestine again(what it sadly does). I'm not for Israel or Palestine. I'm for the civilists and human rights.

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You have to look at it in terms of power dynamics though. Israel is a uS backed settler colonial apartheid regime that propped up Hamas because they would rather face Islamic fundamentalists then socialist opposition. They're either directly or indirectly responsible for all of the violence.

Only one side could hypothetically end the violence tomorrow.

Can they? If Hamas still refuses to release their hostages. Like Jesus how the hell are you people saying that when they have hostages????

In terms of killing children, women AND in the most cowardly manner, there's no good manner but they succeed to go beyond that.
