too many people are simply revealing their political bias when it comes to taking sides.
Including yourself. For those of us who are geographically, culturally and religiously detached from the middle east, a lot of this “siding” is political – Likud is very right wing, supported by America’s right wing. – so it’s not surprising that left leaning people are against the Israeli government (not against Israel, Israelis or Jews). People, on both sides of the political divide , are against Hamas (not Palestinians or Muslims) – so the inevitable arguments tend to be based on thoughts on Israel (and their actions) because the thoughts on Hamas aren’t so different.
On here it’s more accurate, but go on social media and Hamas apologia is rife.
On this, I notice that Peter Tatchell was refused entry to the march on the weekend with banners against Hamas. I think that’s quite telling. As was the attempted stabbing of the Iranian bloke with an anti-Hamas placard. There is a clear problem among many with regards to some poisonous views.
