    And this is the learning that I’m saying has to happen. Did that kidnapping work? Are their families safe? Did it effect nothing? Or, did it make things worse? What were the consequences of that action? That’s what I’m saying we have to not gloss over by making Hamas out to be innocent angels, and Israel the cartoon villains. In 20 years, if some freedom fighter on another continent looks to this conflict for inspiration, should they take away that everything Hamas ever did was a good idea, by the simple virtue that Israel was worse? Or should they actually learn?

      The struggle hasn’t ended yet and the resistance remains defiant. Israel has been unmasked as a genocidal settler colonial entity and is more isolated than ever before.

      You know why people are framing Israel as villains? It’s because they’ve lost the propaganda war. Hamas did that.

      And without Western support, Israel is done.
