Israeli fans attacked first. Pulled down Palestinian flags on houses (on film) and attacked a few people, destroyed a taxi. Chanting “death to arabs”, and “kill sinwar, kill them all” or something like that. Stuff that doesnt belong in a foriegn country, and designed to provoke a response. After the fighting started the cops focused on rounding up palestinians only and did not investgate the israelis. It was all a setup. Amsterdam minister is a far right zionist. Media fails to investigate it. The usual.

It looks to observers that hamas and hezbollah are good with media, but they keep being outplayed. No one mentions that the Oct 7 attacks were preceeded by Al aqsa being occupied by Israeli Jews and vandalized, with the intention of occupying it permanenetly and turning it into a temple, all with brutal IDF and police assistance. And this Amsterdam thing was obviously planned. 1500 “soccer fanbs” arrive many hours early to a foreign city and go through arab neighborhoods not near the game, shotuing threats? Thats not an organic thing, thats planned. They are terrorists.
Take massive bribes from Israeli funders, actively fund a genocide that couldnt happen without our weapons, shut down palestinian voices in the campaign, and she supressed student free speech herself instead of supporting it.
But you’re saying she was going to be better than trump in all this huh. Either she failed to message whatever your talking about, or you’re talking nonsense. Theres a “trolley problem” for you.
Acts of war. Also terrorism.

8·11 days agoPersonally I think your perception is part of a larger problem of a breakdown in communication and education, where people automatically assume the worst of everyone’s intentions because of either experience with other bad actors
Thats a fair accusation. Theres often a lot of bad faith in these communications, so if you are coming from a place of good faith and are here to learn, I apologize, and I’ve added a bunch of history links to my original comment, so you can interpret the history yourself.
Israel has been keeping Palestinians in a brutal and murderous apartheid state and brutalizing them for 80 years-- imprisoning them indefinitely without charges too. But you want to question what the oppressed do and why, as if it was mysterious. I’m having a hard time beleiving you when you say you want this explained to you, but I suppose I’ll take it at face value and hope for the best.
If you truly want to understand this stuff, start with a deep dive-- several actually, into history. Start with the jewish-roman wars to understand the zionist/zealot motivations. At this point the original states of Israel were 1000 years gone, having weakened themselves with civil war over taxation, then plundered and abosrbed by the neo-babylonians. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish–Roman_wars
From there you’ll want to look at the expansion of the ottoman empire and jewish place in it, and how they were governed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_the_Ottoman_Empire This overlapped with the crusades. I recommend “empires of the sea” by crowley. Crucial in there is how the Ottoman empire depended on slaves to function, but their religion only allowed them to get slaves by capturing them in battle, and it forbade muslims from trading in slaves thesmelves, but allowed buying them. Hence the birth of slave traders as a caste, who were foriegn, and became largely a jewish group. This understandably was not well received back in Europe, where the slaves came from. The ottomans almost totally depopulated the mediteranean coasts gathering slaves. https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-13260-5_14 Toward the end of the ottoman empire (it was an 800 year empire), they officially tolerated muslims as slave traders. (Progress?)
You can also read up on how jews participated in and were persecuted in the crusades, and draw some conclusions as to why and how that played out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_and_the_Crusades#:~:text=In the First Crusade%2C Jewish,Jews in France suffered especially.
Then move on to jewish presence in the region during the ottoman empire https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_Turkey
Read up on how jewish expulsions from european countries came about because of christianities Vix pervenit. Theres a lot there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vix_pervenit
See how because of medeival views of usury, Jews were ejcted by monarchs in europe as a way to justify seizing their assets, only to allow them back a bit later and starting the process over https://humsci.stanford.edu/feature/stanford-historian-explores-how-expulsions-became-widespread-medieval-europe
From there you can end up in the start of WW2, the jewish holocaust, and then Haganah and Irgun. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haganah https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irgun

You can google and read a lot about the negoatiations and doubts for whether Netenyahu wanted to negotiate for the release of hostages at all, and the Israelis protesting his lack of interest in getting the hostages back. You can also look at settler groups auctioning off peices of gaza, and now lebanon.
protesting against zionist violence and land theft has all but been outlawed.
But if this was two months ago, I’d agree with that. Thats why I was hoping more people would sign onto the uncommitted movement when we had a chance to let biden/harris know that supporting genocide wasnt going to be permitted by the voters.
Rules and laws are to keep those terrible peasants in line, not to apply to the ruling class.
Creating israel in that region was a collosal mistake. It should have been made in someplace uninhabited, like a jungle somewhere, or Siberia, or the desert in the middle of Australia. They should be relocated.
If only there was something the Biden administration could do…
Seriously though, Biden has an authoritarian and racist streak and always has. He has an entire career full of “gaffes” that were always just flat out racist remarks, and his response to defund and reallocate was to increase police funding for more brutality. That guy HATES…
And if they dont learn they will get slammed again! make no mistake, we can slam them all day every day for years and decades until they stop!
Mandela died in 2013
Why would she listen to a word of it after the election?
Zionist mods have started to infiltrate lemmy too.
