Palestinians have a right to defend their land.
Agreed
And so does isreal.
State of Israel doesn’t have the right to defend itself because it’s built on stolen land.

Its this contradiction. on the one hand jewish people deserve a state, on the other hand the community lived there feels like it was pushed out and the land was theirs. Where else can you go in and claim land based on historical claims now?@@rd-ot1ju
Don't be simple minded, not supporting the colonizer state of Israel does not automatically means supporting Hamass. Do you have proof of what you claim, otherwise your statement is just assuption and lie. Can you even know what's exactly on the mind of 2 millions people, unless you are a telepathe.

@@seanathanconmanary40 Again, one side actively, and very often openly, wants them all gone. Think of it like voting for a political party at home. You may not trust either, but only one side is calling for a policy you literally can't live with. It's not that complex. Hamas doesn't have to be right for Israel to be far, FAR, more wrong.
Imagine yourself in the shoes of a Palestinian, you are living in an open air prison and you are constantly harassed and even killed by the occupying forces. In some cases families are destroyed and people are broken and devastated. You have very limited prospects as you are a second class citizen in your own country. Your house can be raided anytime by Israeli forces terrorizing you and your family. You or your family members can be killed by the Israeli forces without much ramifications. What else do you do except to support the resistance.
@@seanathanconmanary40 You really have to put this is real world terms, not media driven labels and narratives. The palestinians have been denied their own actual military since the Oslo Accords. Hamas gets things like rifles, rockets, and grenades off the black market.They have no air support, no armored divisions, no electronic warfare capability. They attacked one of the most politically and militarily powerful countries on earth, one that enjoys blank check military support from the Western nations that established it. You are told its because they just darn don't like the Israeli's. And if that narrative doesn't make sense then there HAS to be another reason to try and fight.
Free Palestine has been a thing for 75 years. Hamas didn't exist until the 80's.
No, but the Black Hand had existed since 1930, and Palestinian terrorism in general since 1920.

First and foremost what are jews doing in Palestine. Israel was non existent less than a century ago.
In one election where they ran a campaign as a “moderate party” and promised democratic reforms. The opposition party Fatah had been embroiled in corruption and incompetence scandals. Even in this situation it was a tight race, which they barely edged. Ever since then, Hamas operated a brutal one party regime and there haven’t been any elections since. Netenyahu and other Israeli far right extremists covertly supported Hamas as a way to undermine the Palestinian authority (which was exposed in multiple scandals). All of this is to say you have no idea what the hell you’re talking about. This all beside the point that while all this is going on, Palestinians livelihoods are under constant threat from a brutal apartheid regime that has consistently displaced and dispossessed Palestinians and killed tens of thousands over many years (including in the West Bank where Hamas does not exist).
Yep 75 percent voted for them
Israeli vote for Netenyaho, the war criminal
If the vast majority of Palestinians oppose Hamas, how does Hamas manage to stay in power for so long?
Thank you for saying it. Where is the evidence of citizens going after Hamas for bringing death and misery to them ? This video is just another guy trying to justify violence, violence begets violence.
Unit 8200 is trying to influence us😂😂 I$RA£L is a pariah state and will remain Pariah 🤢
Israel relies on Hamas to essentially be their justification for everything they’re doing in Gaza. I don’t particularly like or agree with Johnny Harris, but he has a good video on the topic. This is without even mentioning that 1. Palestinians exist outside of Gaza, in the West Bank, where Hamas has absolutely no power, and 2. Hamas has complete control over what goes in and out of Gaza, as well as direct surveillance over Gaza, any Hamas opponents are dealt with.
@@billyhndrsn4542 The violence begin by the occupier ..so it's called resistance..if ur parents or one of ur sibling are died by n occupier u would simply try to revenge and has nothing to lose

Palestine has the absolute RIGHT to defend itself!!!
Israel has the absolute RIGHT to take back their lands that were stolen from them a 1000 years ago
Fr!!
But it didn't have the NEED to defend itself before it started "defending itself". They're basically trying to put out a fire they started by using a flamethrower on it.
No everything was normal israel provided them electricity, water and food but hamas chose to invest their money on terrorism and making gaza better, palestinians chose this government so its THEIR FAULT
By slaughtering children?
Palestine has been attacked for 70 years and no one said nothing about it but when they finnaly decided to defend themselves they get called terrorist thats not okay.
The UN has had plenty to say about it for years but the US govt prevented all 47 (?) times they tried to pass a motion to stop them committing crimes against humanity

Why are we expected to separate Hamas from the Palestinian people, but not the IDF from the Israeli people? Just remember, Hamas was voted in by the Palestinian people, and Israel withdrew from the entire Gaza Strip in 2005.
How funny that now one invited IDF to garrison Gaza but they still did. I'm wondering if someone camping in your backyard would you saying the same or not.
@@forgottennortheast4817 They did invite IDF though, there has been plenty of missile strikes and attacks by Hamas against Israel.

And Israel voted for a war criminal in Netanyahu.
Course as Jimmy Dore would say “Western Media Propagandists love to start telling the story in the Third Act.”
“Why did you bomb 3 hospitals today isreal” “uhh we thought a hamas soldier was under it”
The way one of those hospitals was so close to the sea it’s impossible to build a tunnel under it too. That or Hamas are mermaids. Israeli worshippers will say they’re mermaids
@@hysteri which hospital was close to the sea?
Did you know that the hospital hamas claimed an israeli airstrike killed 500 people is completely fabricated? Look at actual photos, the damage is pathetic compared to what an israeli airstrike does, zero damage to the hospital, just a courtyard that is scorched with burnt out cars. No crater at all. And it has been debunked that it was a jihadi rocket, a Hamas rocket that malfunctioned and fell in the courtyard of the hospital. So keep reading BBC, Al Jazeera, NYT and their bull shit😂
@@hysteri israel supporters are mostly bought
There was. This is litteraly what Hamas does, they put it in civilian areas so people like you look at it and say “Free Palpatine” Don’t let yourself be manipulated, the IDF is an extremely careful but powerful force, they do NOT want to hurt innocent palestinians.

@@75Saxon_25Celtic In 135 CE, after stamping out the province of Judea's second insurrection, the Romans renamed the province Syria Palaestina.
in some country like Egypt and Sudan the Brits just put a ruler and made a straight line
Actually the UN drew a map, and divided. Jews said OK Arabs said NOPE KILL THE JEWS and lost A different line was drawn. Until 1967 no palestinian movement was present in the west bank nor Gaza, as they were under the direct control of Jordan and Egypt After 1967 suddenly such a movement was encouraged by the arab league... Weird. Why did the arab league not champion a palestinian homeland before 1967. And why did Egypt not want Gaza back when they also got the Sinai back? Think a bit on these facts and you will notice that the standard palestinian narrative is deceptive at best, fictional at worst.
What makes the support of Palestine so much more difficult is the fact that Palestinians themselves, in majority, support hamas, display antisemitism, and the term “from the river to the sea” shows a very clear idea that Palestine as a whole doesn’t just want Israel to abstain from convoluting the affairs the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, but to abolish the state of Israel.
Palestine is not even a legitimate entity.
Thank you. This video is very over simplified, and disingenuous at worst.
Truth
Anyone who lives under oppression is going to eventually join or support a group of "resistance fighters" as they would advertise themselves. Also the people could hardly have foreseen what hamas was going to do in the future. The only thing that bothers me is why israel had no problem allowing auch a thing as a "resistance group" like hamas to be officially formed and elected when they had complete controle over everything else in the lives of the Palestinians.
I find this 'antisemitism' tag extremely racist. Or is it tribal? Both Palestinians and Jews are semites. But the tag is used only where Jews are targeted. Does this mean Jews are more human, therefore more semitic, than Palestinians? Hence the (semitic) Palestinians become 'antisemitic' when they resist oppression by (semitic) Jews who can of course oppress lesser humans.
The vast majority of Gazans supported Hamas. They celebrated the murder and taking of hostages. They are complicit in their own destruction.
Unit 8200 is trying to convince us😂😂 I$RA£L is a pariah state and will remain 🤢

The “vast majority” may not be hamas, but they voted for hamas. And the vast majority fill the streets openly cheering and celebrating every time Israel is attacked. The vast majority demand that Israel be demolished and their people killed. You cannot claim that Israel is committing genocide without affirming that Hamas is committing genocide. That is intellectually dishonest.
Sounds like everyone should be protesting against Hamas IMO.
crazy how pro-palestinian supporters have to condemn hamas about 50 times in one statement whilst stating their own views.
These days the pro Hamas people mix in with the pro Palestine people like a mixed drink. It’s hard to pick them apart sometimes
It's strange. I've heard the "We're not defending Hamas, but..." kind of statements a lot lately. It's usually followed by a defense of Hamas. Even stranger when polling data shows a huge majority of the West Bank believes that what Hamas did on October 7 was a good thing. Gaza doesn't even hit 60% in support of it - this was from late last year if I recall. I don't know where I stand on the conflict. To be fair, I don't think most who talk about it have a position either - they pretend to because it's in the news. All I'm saying is that if you claim to support Palestinian rights, then don't support a group that uses Palestinians as human shields. Edit: I mean "You" in the general sense, not the OP.

So you must have missed quite a few massacres and wars to make such an incorrect statement. It could not be more twisted. NOT one word from your ancestors when Israel was attacked by all surrounding nations while Egypt had the strip and Jordan had the West Bank? What have you been taught? YES, October 7th was unfathomable. Maybe look up the footage. And YES, one baby was baked in an oven. It was confirmed. By the way, October 7th is not over. Hostages are still missing. Hostages from multiple nations. Maybe not yours?? People from all over the world were killed by terrorists. Israel has been attacked. The descendants of the people who were persecuted and expelled from the same land. They were attacked before the current state of Israel was declared. War is awful yes. Hamas not protecting their people is the reason, yes. But in your statement, the only thing that makes a bit of sense, is admitting they were attacked Oct. 7th. Therefore, self-defense. NEVER AGAIN means NEVER AGAIN. Please look at the past wars, and multiple massacres. Then make an accurate statement.
GET ISREAL OUT OF THEIR HOME NOW
Because Hamas have been attacking Isreal for decades... Palestinians voted for Hamas... so most supported Hamas...
Really? If you say you will give them freedom then they will support you and vote for you. How difficult it is to understand? Or you stopped being a human or started believing that only you have the right to be free? Change your mind please and do what is right. Free palestine =no hamas. No attacks on Israel. No Iranian threats. Peace for all.
There hasn't been an election in Gaza since 2006. Half the current population were not even alive in 2006 so that half didn't vote for Hamas . In 2006 70 percent voted for Hamas who were eligible to vote . There are also a large number of younger adults who make up the current Population of Gaza who were too young to vote back in 2006 . So in reality about 75 percent of the current population in Gaza didn't vote for Hamas in 2006. How do you vote out a party that doesn't hold elections ? The people who voted for Hamas didn't really like or support Hamas . They voted for them out of desperation and saw them as the lesser of Two evils .

It is Muslims who invaded the lands of Christians and Jews (in the 7th century for the first time), Muslims are the invaders/occupiers/colonisers. Muslims were killing, oppressing, enslaving non-Muslims for 1300 years. There is already a Free Palestine for Muslims, it is called Jordan.

As a Filipino, from what I've seen, the Israeli government treats Palestine is the same way China treats the West Philippine Sea. They decided that they should control this area and if anyone speaks out against them, its because of discrimination and not any wrongdoings they've committed. Everyone keeps saying that Hamas should have expected this retaliation, but can't you argue the same thing against the Israeli government? After years of opressing and blockading millions of people, shouldn't they have expected that eventually some of them might fight back?
Yeah I would fight back if I'm in that situation like imagine living in open air concentration camp where basic necessities like food, water and electricities are being controlled by the more powerful group, everywhere you go will fill with the arm soldiers who could take you away whenever they want if they find you irritating them, and the settlers not all of them but mostly would become violent no matter you're a child or not and assault you, but you have nowhere to report the crimes. No one on your side, no safe place that you could go. You could get bomb anytime yet you still have to be in your home because it's the safest place.
