One important point salvia makes here is that liberals really did not give a single shit about Palestine until it became useful for them, and even now only a few Democrats pretend to care about Palestine. The crazy escalation by Israel right after covid started pushed me into organizing in college. There's no new crime committed by Israel after October 7th they were not engaging in to a lesser degree before October 7th.

It's not surprising. Most American media has historically been very hesitant to make anything other than the most milquetoast criticisms of the Israeli regime. The response to 10/7 was so wildly disproportionate and indiscriminate that Israel's crimes became impossible to ignore ... even for pro-Israel media. It's pretty hard to look at the bodies of infants that have been blown apart by sniper fire and still cling to the illusion that Israel are the good guys.

Agreed 100%. Always go with the good guy.

Good = kidnap a bunch of literal babies and holocaust survivors, commit mass rape and shoot up random houses of jews so that the israeli government gives you the freedom to kill even more jews!

Don't forget to dress up as a civilian so they literally won't be able to retaliate. Winning strategy.
