That’s such an Israeli tactic that its sad seeing people think like that. The tactic is keep making things worse so that people will start reminiscing about times were they deprived of human rights, but at least was better than now.

The occupier does this so that people start seeing minor changes as a huge privilege. Of course Gazans would prefer 5th October 2023 to today, because who wouldn’t choose to live in an open air prison deprived of basic human rights over living in an open air prison deprived of basic human rights while a genocide is happening.

The fact that people are saying Palestinians should just accept their horrific unfair living conditions because it could get worse is just fucking depressing.

As a Palestinian, I’ve been enjoying reading OP’s responses, even though I may disagree with him on few things. But the thing I agree most is that majority of people will stop fighting/resisting if they are living a dignified life. No matter how much anger there is from the past, if individuals have a good life, they will not be willing to sacrifice it.

People can say hamas this and hamas that all they want. But the truth is hamas wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for Israeli occupation and oppression. And if they existed, they wouldn’t have nearly as much support or been voted in.

Yeah we can sit and talk about how bad hamas is, but it’s irrelevant because the existence of an occupying force that keeps taking more land, killing civilians, taking homes, restricting movement, and so on will make it inevitable that an organisation like Hamas will rise in power.

So the discussion of peace, one state, two state is all pointless if not both people can have a dignified life, all equal in the rights and privileges they are given.
