None of you responding points make any sense to me as to why you have such partisanship and bias, so lets take them one by one.
Maybe because I see the massive power imbalance
This is a terrible argument that a whole book could be written in response to. But its so common from people with your perspective. And I think this simple victim/ oppressor narrative without really examining what is really going on is behind a lot of 'nice' pro-Palestinian protestors. It doesn't really answer the question though of why you have never cared about the expulsion of nearly a million Jews from Arab and muslim countries in the mid 20th century but do care about what you call the Nakba. After all, 100's of thousands of Jews who were terrorised and expelled were not the ones with the power, were they? There was a massive power imbalance against them. And the ONLY reason Israel has not been flattened is because it has the Iron Dome to defend it. Do you honestly think it is an unfair power imbalance that Israel has greater capacity to defend itself from the 10's of thousands of rocket attacks launched at it as it fights on seven fronts of aggressors? Because, if you do that is irrational. And there is no international law that says wars need to be between two equal parties. But again, Hamas chose to knowingly start the war against a stronger enemy. And the responsibility for that lies with Hamas.
And this is not a war against Israel and Gaza. People frame it like that for propaganda purposes against Israel. This is a war in the middle east against a collaboration of enemies and states seeking to completely destroy Israel. So you are only against Israel as they have managed not to be destroyed so must have all the power? Again, that is irrational.
maybe because I don’t like seeing a civilian population starved?
No one does but Israel has supplied enough food for the population (of the government who is trying to destroy it) but Hamas are actively working to stop that succeeding as they need to control the supply of food to maintain control and to raise money, and to ensure their own fighters are well fed ( they steal the food and sell it to their own people, they can restrict food to those who don't support them). Hamas have not even sheltered their citizens in the 450 mile of tunnel networks. Its not that they don't care about their own citizen's suffering, they actively need it to advance their cause, and they are not even really trying to hide this fact. Blame Hamas.
Maybe because I don’t like seeing 20, 000 children slaughtered Again, no-one does, but again, blame Hamas for starting the war and then not sheltering its citizens in existing tunnel networks, as every other government would have done. Israel have made far more effort to protect the children of Gaza in the pursuit of this war than Hamas have. They have provided warnings, food and I believe even a polio vaccination programme. And they didn't start the war, Hamas did, by murdering babies and children as it happens.
Maybe because I have seen Israel’s response to peaceful Palestinian protests? Israel is a democracy where there is freedom of speech and freedom of protest. Did you read what Hamas did to the Gazans who a few months back held some protests against Hamas?
Maybe because I have teenage sons and I don’t like seeing boys the same age imprisoned without trial or shot by snipers with impunity?
I have boys too. I can't bear the thought of what it must have been like for the mothers of children when Hamas came to slaughter them, in a racist attack on October 7th. They tied parents and children together with wire and set them alight. To start a war, and to bring war onto their own children - who they then did not shelter, and who they stole food from..
i don’t know why do you not care about these things?
Why do you think I don't care? Why do people with your views think that anyone like me who doesn't blindly put all the fault at Israel's door doesn't care? This desire to believe I don't care is an attempt the dehumanise me. We should all be on guard against the willingness to dehumanise others. As Israel is being dehumanised. I do care. I care very much about what is happening to Israelis and to Palestinians. I just disagree with you about where the blame lies. And I see the complete wiping out of Hamas of the narrative and responsibility for what is happening as a blatant and unjust prejudice against Israel. And I am furious with Hamas for all the suffering they have caused and I really don't understand why the pro-Palestinians are not.
