The Turkish arrest warrant accuses Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of 'crimes against humanity, genocide, aggravated deprivation of liberty,' and 'torture,' linked to Israel's treatment of activists from a Gaza-bound aid flotilla.

That's the thing though, these assholes all play off each other. netanyahu hamas erdogan, (and unfortunately many other world leaders) they all have the common interest of making more money when there's more war and military action. They can all act outraged but take the human emotions out of it and logically it's just actors in a game all incentivized to escalate violence. The ones losing out are the People on all sides who see their homes destroyed if they're lucky enough not to be killed.

Even when the personalities really hate each other, like when trump had maduro captured. Who succeeded maduro?? Literally his second-in-command. Did the Venezuelan constitution have any changes? Literally none. in fact, the new president, delcy rodriguez has been in government for 20 years since she was first appointed by hugo fucking chavez. We killed more fishermen than actual members of the maduro regime.

There we go with all side are bad bullshit. Israel is the only one committing genocide. Hamas is a resistance group that surely did act of Terrorism but so the allies during world war 2 that make Hamas look like a bunch of no name thugs

It's not all sides, it's the war mongers versus the rest of us, that's the two sides.

Hamas is not part of the war monger, they wouldn't even exists if palestine was not colonized. Was resistance against the French war mongering by Tunisians and Algerian war mongering for you too

That's why they attack all those weddings and dance parties, because those are military targets and not civilian targets designed to escalate the military situation.

You are acting like there was zero military target during October 7 and many resistance group comited war crimes and atrocities during Thier resistance. Was the allies during world war 2 war mongers?

Maybe, are the US not warmongers and have been for most of their existence?

But I'll go back to what you said earlier

they wouldn’t even exists if palestine was not colonized

Right, so their continued existence depends on a continued colonization

The USA was not the only members of the allies that targeted civilians during world war 2. Hamas is no different then any other resistance they did atrocities during their struggle to end colonization

Since we are in the topic of turkey too do you know that ever the Kurdish resistance did target civilians with your logic both turkey and the Kurdish resistance are both warmongers
