    I don’t think you will get a good faith answer so I will try to help. I don’t support what Israel is doing, but I am technically “Pro-Israel” because I believe in a two state solution. This means I am also very Pro-Palestine, just to be clear and we should be celebrating a Palestine independence day in 2025 with no excuse for why we shouldn’t be.

    The explanation for the behavior and defense of Genocide is simple: willful ignorance due to unwavering support brought on by a massive propaganda campaign both locally and globally. It is very easy to fall for that sides rhetoric because of how complicated the history of the area is, and to be frank, most people aren’t intelligent enough to get into the conversation but do it anyways without a single fact to back up their arguments.

    What is happening is no different than Russia, US, China, North Korea and the like. The majority in those populations follow the leader, allowing those leaders to commit atrocities.

    The Likud party doesn’t expect anyone to interpret that rhetoric as anything else but what it is. At this point they are fully backed by the US in what they are doing and no longer give a fuck about global support because they don’t need it.

    There is no good faith argument to support Israel actions, and anyone arguing for the Likud party is always on the wrong side. It will always be bad faith and in support of monsters.
