The whole point of guerilla warfare is that you can't tell the civilians from the fighters. If you've got six guys walking down the street, all dressed in dirty robes and sandals, how do you tell which one is Hamas?

I believe it's similar to what the doorgunner in Full Metal Jacket once said, "Git some! Git some! Git some, yeah, yeah, yeah! Anyone who runs, is a VC. Anyone who stands still, is a well-disciplined VC!"

Ask Putin, he will tell you the truth!

Didn't Putin have a heart attack recently? Allegedly.

I saw a TikTok of Trudeau telling Israel to not be too aggressive with their assault on Hamas because the world is watching. Easy statements to make when you run a country that hasn't been invaded and nobody wants to invade it.
Oh, Canada was invaded a looong time ago, which is how someone with the surname
Trudeau ends up ruling over land belonging to aboriginal Americans.
As you can see, the imperialist, colonialist mindset lingers to this day, which is why these Westerners are arrogant enough to believe that they can dictate to the indigenous people of Judea the extent to which they're permitted to defend their land.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
Also, using native American peoples as an argument for who owns a chunk of dirt is laughable. I mean native Americans have always been awfully territorial over land that they believe belongs to no one and have never provided any maps or documentation of ownership of said lands before the white and off-white peoples rolled into town.

In case there's anyone who wants to hear a British person's take on this:

"The uploader has not made this video available in your country"
There's some irony.
I can see it's John Oliver though. I'm sure he's parroting Hamas propaganda as if it was tablets hand-delivered by God himself.
(nb I still like him, his parents are from my hometown and we support the same football team)

Yeah, sure, Israeli and Palestinian parents who lost their children in the conflict advocating for peace is just Hamas propaganda.

It could be. You never know when there are expert propagandists employed by terrorists. Of course non-terrorists also spread propaganda too. What a conundrum.
