Discussion on Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
Think about if Israel-
The state of Israel is a crime. The state of Israel does not commit
crimes.
The state of Israel is a crime
But does that excuse any action? If you are a resistance group, you
should not target civilians.
When you are the oppressive genocidal regime,
you will be paying a price. When my niece was killed, my s-
her mother said, "What
did you expect? That they won't come out
and kill civilians?
We kill their children in their schools. We bomb their schools.
We tor- we arrest and torture their brothers and sisters.
You think they're not gonna come and kill our civilians?"
Yeah.
What are you talking about?
I wouldn't, I don't-
What kind of... Yeah.
Offer a peace agreement. There's so many things they could've done.
A peace agreement with who? A peace agreement with who?
With, with, with, with the, the, the-
The peace agreement with a genocidal racist regime is absurd.
Why didn't they go offer a t- peace agreement with Hitler?
If, if, if I'm talking-
The government is not the issue.
I think they're being-
It is not about Netanyahu. It is not about this particular government.
You're creating symmetry between what Palestinians are doing
and what Israelis are
doing. Israel is a massive war machine
that has been engaged in
genocide.
Mm.
Palestinians are barely surviving and trying to resist the best they can.
Now, the vast majority of Palestinian
resistance historically has been unarmed.
Like, unarmed. Now, it's not for you or for me to tell Palestinians how to
resist.
So-
Vast majority of Palestinian resistance has been unarmed.
Yeah.
And when they try unarmed resistance, for years, they've been murdered
and killed, and their children have been arrested
and tortured, and they still
continue. In the same villages in the West Bank
that had this tradition of,
of un- nonviolent resistance, they were arrested and, and, and, and tortured.
Their kids are being shot and killed and arrested and tortured.
Nonviolent resistance against a n- against a violent oppressive regime does
not
work. They're getting killed anyway. So what would you do?
They're getting killed either way.
Palestinians are being murdered whether they kill Israelis
or whether they sleep in
their beds.
Is it, I mean, so-
It makes no difference.
Is it, if you were-
So will they kill Israelis? Of course they're gonna kill Israelis.
