The article you provided literally talks about how Qatar is sending foreign aid to Gaza and Israel is allowing it since it bypassed Hamas. This just invalidates your point.

It absolutely was not thanks to hard work. Israel is a colonial settlement backed by billionaires and propped up by the American military, so they can use it as a proxy to exert their influence on the region. Pull this support away, and the country collapses.

How about you hold off on the personal attacks, huh? I didn't say anything over all the stupid tone deaf shit you've said ranging from genocide denial to trying to justifying a year of some of the worst human rights violations most people have seen.

Slip up or not (and this was a very big slip up). It's clear Netanyahu and his cronies are using this conflict to further their own agenda of expanding their little colony and stop him from being convicted like he was supposed to be right before the attack. How convenient for him and all those settler groups.

First of all, do you know how much money Hamas has received in foreign aid to help the people of Gaza?

I'm going to ask you to cite your sources here.

Second, Israel built a thriving successful nation from nothing through hard work, innovation, and a shared commitment to building a future for the Jewish people.

Yes, it totally had nothing to do with the tens of billions it receives in foreign aid, the extensive military support it also gets, and the land and resources they stole from the Palestinians. A lot of "hard work"there. Clearly.

The Israeli government was given intelligence that the Oct 7th attack was going to happen by their own agencies as well as foreign ones. They chose not to take it seriously. At best, they're incompetent. At worst, they're complicit.

And why are you bringing up what Hamas did or didn't do? We were talking about the atrocities Israel is committing.

This person was literally a drug addict who got kicked out of her house by her parents. She was homeless when she got recruited. This only reinforces my point.

No happy child willingly becomes a soldier. They're recruiting children who have known nothing but violence their entire lives. This is what people mean when they say people are radicalized due to the wars and suffering they've endured. Where do you think these militia groups come from? People who are happy and carefree? Or people who have had violence and oppression inflicted on them their whole lives and feel the need to fight back? This isn't the result of some kind of propaganda campaign like you claim it is. This is people fighting back against systemic oppression and violence they've been enduring for decades.

And what kind of people do cults tend to attract? People that are in happy lives? Or the ones that are in desperate situations?

That sucks, sorry to hear that. I honestly thought the US had a similar thing as well. I guess that explains the huge push for more unions across the US over the past few years.

I'm Canadian myself but isn't this illegal? In Canada we have a labor program where you can file a complaint if it comes to that.

Expressing your viewpoint on a conflict is not grounds to be deemed a terrorist in Canada. Here is the actual process.

Specifically:

The process of listing begins with criminal and/or security intelligence reports on an entity disclosing the reasonable grounds to believe that the entity has knowingly carried out, attempted to carry out, participated in or facilitated a terrorist activity; or the entity has knowingly acted on behalf of, at the direction of or in association with, an entity involved in a terrorist activity.

And none of what you provided is actually saying they funded a terrorist organization.

Why would Hamas de-escalate? They're people are being systemically eradicated and have been for over 70 years.

we should be pushing for a ceasefire and a two state system.

I agree that we should be aiming for a peaceful solution but a two-state solution would be bad IMO. It shouldn't be an us vs them kind of government. Every western government has a system where people of all backgrounds and faiths can pursue any lifestyle or job they wanted, including in the government and elected positions. Why can't be the same here? Why must there be a divide between Muslims and Jews.

On Wednesday, the European Commission (EC) announced that "X does indeed not qualify as a gatekeeper in relation to its online social networking service, given that the investigation revealed that X is not an important gateway for business users to reach end users."

Task failed successfully.
