It's like a prison riot. You have to fight back knowing that you will be crushed again, but if you don't Israel will just continue the slow slaughter of Palestinians.
If you can try to get some breathing room and make it painful to the other side you can hope Israel will someday stop.
Has there every been a prison that had to shut down and release all the prisoners due to continious riots? It just doesn't seem like a strategy that can actually work.
The difference is that the comparison shouldn't happen because Gaza is not actually a prison so the people in it aren't prisoners they are civilians with militants mixed in because there is no way out.
If Israel didn't oppress and let the people live their lives, then perhaps they wouldn't lash out with these rocket attacks.
Israel does not have a charter that calls for the death and destruction of Palestine or Palestinians. Throwing around the apartheid buzzword doesn't make the Palestinian cause seem smart. It just shows that they have no clue what they're talking about and just trying to throw labels around. You want peace, you want a better life? Then go to the bargaining table and negotiate, don't attack. Actually try for a peace and your own self determination. No attack will ever reach any supposed goal of theirs. An attack like this is the most pyrrhic of victories. They only lose more than they gain. It's just completely moronic, suicidal, illogical, stupid, etc.
I'm no South African, but you're a useful idiot for the ruling class if you are so ready to dismiss the voices of minoritized groups, i.e. the ones who don't have the media reach to tell you what to think.
It's not a buzzword, it is apartheid. South Africans who have fought against apartheid and suffered under it agree, that Israel is an apartheid state. I know because I have I have talked to them. If you can't agree with that, there is no use having a conversation.
