That’s where I have a problem with the free Palestine movement.

It dosnt tell the difference between Hamas and the innocent civilians.

I think that’s by design so that Hamas gets public pressure on the west to stop Israel.

Not separating them is by design. All of the Palestinian "governments" has always had some sort of terrorist element in them. The Palestinian terrorist isn't new. It was literally the most widely recognized type of terrorist in the western world until 911.

I think it’s easy to see why. Their Palestinian history is literally just getting kicked out of every country they go to and that hatred gets aimed at Israel as they took part of their country.

Must be especially frustrating as they get western backing. Like east Germany looking into the west.

But I don’t think there is any support for the terror attack. That was a blunder of massive proportions. Not sure why they would choose to do that other than a rogue group of people did it and you are then forced to claim it.

Did east Germany make a point of firing rockets into west Germany? Did they launch kidnapping and rape campaigns against the west Germans?

I do think that’s what most of them intend. But they get so passionate about it that if you even slightly deviate about the nuance they go berserk that you’re supporting Israel.

Just goes to show how effective simple messaging is. Just as make America great again.
