Edit: Blocked the author’s name, because it’s not my tumblr. I didn’t expect so many people to misinterpret it and respond in this way.

Edit 2: This is not from the same author, but it’s a reply to them. I think it might help clarify the post for those that are confused:

I normally don’t worry about usernames on tumblr, but since there’ve been some really out-of-pocket misconceptions in the thread, I don’t want anyone to harass them.

    Again, if you say the situation in Israel / Palestine is one sided, you are inviting people to bring up Hamas.

    If you’re going to deny that Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack happened, then that’s on you to provide sources. I’m not going to dignify someone asking for sources on basic facts that have been widely covered in literally every major and minor news source.

          You are tho. You have been very actively trying to play down Israel’s aggression. Either you are a zionist or a troll. 1 is a nuclear state that has the most advanced weaponry and backing from the biggest countries and financial aid from the whole world and the other is a resistance force that allegedly did bad things(which no one has said otherwise to you). Use your brain. And I think you are happy that you got your “solution” to a very “complicated” genocide.

            Literally have not. Quote me where I do.

            1 is a nuclear state that has the most advanced weaponry and backing from the biggest countries and financial aid from the whole world and the other is a resistance force that allegedly did bad things(which no one has said otherwise to you).

            Hamas mass murdered over 1000 civilians and promised to do it again and again until all Israelis are dead.

            I’m not defending Israel responding by killing over 10,000 women and children, but to claim that it’s an entirely 1 sided situation is simply inaccurate, and to claim that the situation is simple is asinine.

              The 1000 number is not true and idk what this rant is about. Both are evil is just another way of saying “it’s complicated”. It’s not. Give the sources for the alleged promises. Even if we take it hypothetically one side is actively doing it while the other makes promises. Would you hug people that carpet bombed your whole family. I don’t understand the logic here. Don’t commit war crimes don’t make enemies. It’s that simple.
