    I lived in a West Bank settlement for 11 years. Israel’s reason for the war is ethnic cleansing and expulsion. They use the public support of the hostages to justify their actions. If you dare push back on their conquest you are called a self hating Jew and a Libtard.

    Hamas are not the good guys here either, they played all their cards on October 7th where they demonstrated their cruelty and disrespect for human life. The Israeli military has been trying to match or exceed them ever since.

      Weird how many of the Israeli claims of Oct 7 are either disproven or completely unbacked by any evidence. Beheaded babies? Rape and murder of dozens including noah aragami (who is alive, and released and now is going against Israel, why??? Asked the idiots)

      Hamas is an Israeli puppet, they were placed to lead gaza to ensure Palestine can’t form into a nation, literal divide and rule. Hamas in gaza, plo/fateh in west bank who are opposing ideologies. I absolutely condemn Oct 7 and can’t comprehend why their plan or goal, not only is it cruel to the innocents but surely they knew Gaza would be wiped. Not that Israel is allowed to, just that Israeli propaganda is the strongest on earth

        Weird how I never mentioned any of the Israeli claims. The facts are they swept through civilian areas killing and kidnapping seems fucked enough for me.

        Where the fuck are you getting your propaganda? Noah Argamani? The woman posting pictures with Donald Trump on her socials?

        Hamas was thought to be containable by Bibi’s government, they funneled cash to them hoping it would keep them complacent. Hamas proved on October 7th that they did not want to be Bibi’s “puppet”.!

        Israel has been working on dividing the Palestinian people for almost as long as Israel has been a state. There were growing pro Palestinian rights movements growing in Israel but Bibi has been leaning hard into Oct 7th to reignite racist fears that Israelis are indoctrinated with their entire life. There are still movements in Israel that are pushing for hostage release and for Palestinian human and civil rights. Israel/Palestine will never be a healthy democracy until all peoples within it segmented borders are given equal civil and human rights.

            There are obvious reasons for the October 7th attack. Anyone denying that the Zionist government’s treatment of Palestinians for the better part of a century is either propagandized or choosing to not see.

            Anybody justifying the murder of civilians on October 7th as a needed revolution but claims to be for peace and security for Palestinians needs to think long and hard about what peace and security is for Palestine. Anybody justifying Israel’s genocide/ethnic cleansing by citing October 7th needs to ask the very hard question of where does it end and what is the human cost.

            For decades the Israeli government has propped up the puppet of a governing body that oversees the Palestinians population. The Palestinians Authority has no authority and has every motivation to keep the status quo. The change needs to come from within both societies. Israelis need to elect someone who believes in equal rights and will work with Palestinians for a mutual lasting peace and security deal. October 7th and the following assault on Gaza has pushed that process back years of not decades.

            Nobody wins here.

        Look into what Hasan says VS how he acts. He preaches socialism but steals money from other content creators constantly, as one example. He’s entirely two-side and just as bad as H3.

            They both virtue signal towards different sides on that specific topic. But in their broader histories, they both just talk without research and bully random individuals for little reason. They both preach leftist politics yet choose to take from the less fortunate whenever they can.

              Hasan is one of the most educated streamers pertaining the genocide constantly covering it at his own expense.

              H3 is a genocidal Nazi maniac. Comparing the two shows how deeply unserious you are.

        Hasan is a selfserving dickhead who poisons the well for most people not already into leftist politics. He refuses to be truly critical and reflective of stuff on his own side.

        This kind of message needs to reach the “normies” to sway public opinion and put pressure on Israel to stop. But at the same time, with an 5 minutes google you see the dude brings Houthis onto his stream because “they’re just like Luffy.” That’s was not journalism, it’s was propaganda for clicks and views.

        I see some of same bullshit the right pulls being done by him and his community. And I’m saying this as someone who agrees with most of his takes.

            Take it however you want to fit your narrative. Hasan himself said a thousand times at the beginning of his career that his objective was to be a gateway for normies to easily get into leftist politics. He lost sight of that along the way, and I blame both him and his community for it.

              He’s literally the largest leftist streamer so he’s literally one of the most successful people at moving people left currently.

              The Houthis are resisting the genocide in Gaza. The interview had as much journalistic value as interviewing John Brown (or at least on of his followers) would have. You’re engaging in some George Bush level shit. Don’t turn your brain off just because the state labels a group a terrorist organization.

                He was the best at some point without a doubt, but now? You guys lost the election to Joe Rogan and friends and are still refusing to look into why.

                And about the Houthis, you can gaslight all you want, but Hasan isn’t a journalist and it’s obvious when he tries to act like one. If I want real journalism, I’ll stick to the few places where it still exists, not some streamer sitting on his ass commenting on everything under the sun.

    I don’t necessarily disagree but Hasan literally plays Hamas propaganda videos on his streams. Is it really too niche to promote the views of people who don’t like Israel committing genocide and also don’t like Hamas?

      The Israeli killing of US civilians goes back at least to 2003, when American activist Rachel Corrie was crushed to death in Gaza by an Israeli soldier driving an armored Caterpillar-brand bulldozer as she laid down to prevent it from moving to destroy Palestinian houses.

      https://www.vox.com/israel/371491/aysenur-eygi-israel-palestine-west-bank-idf-biden-blinken

      What Fanon implored us to do was to view the struggle of the oppressed as a struggle to create a new mode of being, a new form of humanity. Within the revolutionary struggles of the masses, he insisted, lie the seeds of a new humanity. The ongoing resistance in Palestine today is not a new phenomenon, but is rather the latest episode in a decades’ long struggle for freedom and what Hegel and Fanon both agree on, recognition. Not recognition to live within shrivelled little cantons and drip-fed subsistence, but recognition as a human being in the holistic sense of the term. The stone throwing, the stabbings and the bombings are a reaction to a colonial regime which denies this recognition.

          Both sides-ing a genocide is bad. Difference is one side is fighting eradication for their humanity and emancipation while the other is doing the eradication for supremacy and Colonialism.
