Come on, mate, do you realise how ridiculous this sounds? How do you expect people to respond to you is you make blanket statements like this? Based on what? How many countries in Europe have you lived in?
There has been non-stop protest marches of support for the Gazans, every single day, and in practically every western country, since the day of the Hamas attack. London is brought to a standstill every single weekend.
And I’ll also add that many of these marches are being organised by Islamists who openly support Hamas and publicly chant for the extermination of the Jews and the destruction of the Isreali state.
Just this week there have been large, armed, gangs of Islamists roaming the streets of England chanting jihadi war slogans, hunting for non-Muslims.
What do you think would happen if armed Christian gangs were roaming through the streets of Tehran, chanting anti-Muslim war cries and hunting for Muslims to attack? They would be hung from the nearest crane.
For all its many faults, the '‘west’ is far more tolerant and altruistic, towards non-natives especially, than any other countries in the world. So tolerant in fact, that we would rather see our own cultures and histories and traditions eradicated than to appear to offend people from different cultures that live in our countries.
Where were all the protests of outrage when Muslims were killing other Muslims? In Syria? In Yemen? In Iraq? Over 1 million Muslims have been killed in these conflicts by other Muslims, yet not a single protest from any other Muslim country? This is proof that Muslims don’t care about the plight of the Gazans either. You never have. They have always been a useful scapegoat in the Muslim world to use as a stick to beat the Israelis with.
Yes, it’s disgusting what is happening to the Gazans at the hands of the Israeli state, but what did they think was going to happen when they did what they did on Oct 7th? And we know that the Iranian regime funded those attacks, in the full knowledge that it was going to bring an absolutely brutal response from Israel.
Hamas are to blame for the pight of the Gazans. They were given control of Gaza 20 years ago, with astronomically funding. They could have turned the place into a paradise, like Beirut used to be before it was destroyed by Islamic militias (also funded by Iran, by the way), but no, they didn’t spend that money on education and women’s rights and infrastructure and building peaceful relations with Israel. They put every single ounce of their dedication and devotion into the destruction of Israel. They spent it all on weapons. One of the Hamas leaders that was assassinated in Beirut a few months back had 5 BILLION $$$ in his personal bank accounts, at a time when Gazans had food, water, and medical supply shortages. Yes, I’m sure he really gave a sh*t about the Gazans too…
There is no excuse for what Israel is engaged in. There are insane fanatics on both sides who have a hatred for each other that is barely human.
I visited Israel back in 2017 as I have a great love of history and I was also trying to learn more about the post 1948 history of the place. And one of the things that always stuck with my was WHY? Why can’t these people all just live in peace together? There’s enough land for everyone. It’s in a beautiful location on the Mediterranean. Great weather. Mediterranean lifestyle and food. Etc. But that’s naive. That’s idealistic. There will never be peace in that region because there is so much ideological hatred. It’s a hatred that goes far, far beyond any sort of human logic.
I went on to a few middle eastern websites. Funnily enough, I didn’t see any Ukrainian colours on the site logos. What’s up with that, eh? Do you not care about Europeans?
