I locate the occupation of Palestine within the 500 years of European dehumanisation of people beyond European borders, whose lands were defined as 'empty', because they (Africans, Asians, Arabs etc ) were defined as less than human.

It is a testament to how successful the propaganda has been, that the Zionists have for decades, played the victim card to garner sympathy, callously letting thousands of Jewish lives be lost to the Nazis, all in order to gain sympathy for their project to get free land and houses in Palestine. For decades, they have spun the narrative portraying Palestinians defending their right to their own homes and farms, as 'terrorists'.

No-one can accept atrocities but when one sees the decades of attempts to stop the incursions of Israelis , during which hardly a family has not lost members to rape imprisonment and assassinations, it becomes understandable that savagery received, mutates into being doled out.

If my baby had starved to death, I truly don't think I would be happy to see the Israeli hostages coming out looking so healthy and well-fed.
