they are right. gaza is an apartheid state. all power to the palestinians
Isreal has a blockade of goods into gaza, determining which goods go in and which do not. Israel determines the amount of food that can enter Gaza, and in leaked documents has been found saying they "need to put palestinians on a diet", reducing the amount of food entering an already poverty-stricken region.
Israel controls the electricity that flows into Gaza, and they regularly bomb the one power-plant that exists in Gaza.
To be honest, they are right. I'm not condoning Hamas, but we could have had peace if the Israel conservative party was so hell bent in pushing an antisemitism against Palestine for so many years.
Oh for sure, they definitely have their own agendas and are taking advantage of the situation to try and advance it, but that doesn't make it any less true
The Israel/Palestine situation feels a lot like the situation between Native Americans and European settlers. You can't move into an already occupied place and try to dominate or displace the native inhabitants without expecting violent resistance. (And go figure the British are largely to blame for this too).
Stop ignoring history
Jews were living on that territory for thousands of years, unlike Europeans un America. You are conveniently ignoring facts which would immediately render your analogy completely bogus.
The governments of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Iran appeared to back Hamas in its escalating conflict with Israel on Saturday.
The Palestinian militant group launched a mass attack on Israeli forces and settlements, killing at least 100 people in Israel and about 200 in Gaza early Saturday.
While leaders in the U.S. and Europe quickly denounced the attack and gave support for Israel, the three Middle Eastern nations criticized the country over its treatment of Palestinians.
“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is closely following the developments of the unprecedented situation between a number of Palestinian factions and the Israeli occupation forces, which has resulted in a high level of violence on several fronts there,” the country’s Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the conflict a “war” in a public address early Saturday.
The U.S. has vowed to support Israel, with Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin saying the government will ensure the country “has what it needs to defend itself.”

Haaretz is being v critical of Netanyahu and on top of the decades of occupation of Gaza and West Bank I'm inclined to agree. Escalating racial violence to protect his own career, bro might as well have sent the call to Hamas HQ himself.
