These days I have to constantly remind myself, oh! believe in the achievements of the moder age believe in the achievements of the modern age. Because it seems that we are living in the colonialism age, hundreds of years ago! It is disgusting to start the story with the Hamas invasion. The colonies (with god in their side!) that were attacked by the indians had to ask themselves, why are they being attacked? Just for fun? Madness of violence? or Because they were human animals?
Stop trying to convey the idea of ‘Israel’ as something that’s supposed to be a safe haven for Jews. It’s a settler colonial state that prospers on the suffering of Arabs. I hope to see the day the ME freed from you white colonizers.
