Algorithm probably plays a sizeable part in that, but as an older gen Z fella I have become indifferent to both countries of this conflict. Both Israel and Palestine just race with each other who can check the most boxes in the Geneva Convention rules list. Just leave those 2 to sort this mess out for themselves, It's not like we get a Holy Site bonus effect by owning Jerusalem.
Or just put a stop on this, but this is a naive thinking.
Wow.
Please educate me then. Narrowed down to this conflict only Israel killed HUGE amounts of civilians but Hamas militants initiated this entire conflict by creating massacres all over Israel.
Of course, I'm not stating that Israel or Palestine is doing the right thing, it's just sad (and tiring) to see another war where BOTH sides don't take civilian lives into consideration at all. What's your disagreement for me being indifferent? I would be a pretty happy person if someone could put a stop on this entire conflict, but this probably won't ever happen.
"Narrowed down to this conflict only". There. Thats my explanation. Casting a century of genocide aside and focusing only on this conflict is silly.
Also, you're operating under the assumption this is a war between Israel and Palestine, but Palestine is not a country Israel decided to be at war with. "Palestine" is what remains of the obstacle to Israel's legitimacy. I
Your assumption is totally understandable but our debate would need way longer paragraphs since this massacre has numerous amounts of conflicts starting from the 40s.
Yes that's correct, I was indeed under the assumption that Palestine exists as a country. Thank you for pointing this out.
