Oh yeah, like those 500 people that were killed in a hospital parking lot bombing by the IDF, according to hamas but turned out it was a hamas rocket dud and like 5 people died?

Oh so reliable…

Unlike England, Portugal did not keep any overseas territory.

Gibraltar anyone?

Benefitting how? They were a drain on the Portuguese economy.

Portugal invested more in the colonies infrastructures than in the country itself. The carnation revolution had a few reasons and one of them being that despite the government stubborness, the Portuguese people did not want to keep the colonies.

It was also the first country in the entire world to abolish slavery (European Portugal, that is)

They are 2 million in gaza. Hamas (oh so trustworthy source…) says Israel killed over 30000 thousand.

That’s 1.5%.

Palestinians are near extinction I tell you!

Looks like no country next to Palestine wants anything to do with them…

Who knew that trying to overthrow your neighbours government/causing civil war would lead to this…

Gimme a break… A war with supposedly 20000 casualties in a highly dense country with 2 million people is NOT a genocide.

If Hamas and the palestinians want the war to be over, they could just give back the hostages they took on October 7…

Pretty simple really

Why would you drive drunk?

Just a simple Google search reveals that 14000 humanitarian aid trucks entered the strip since the start of the war but it seems a lot of them were vandalized/raided by civilians and Palestinian criminal groups trying to capitalize on the desperation of people.

So it is not a complete siege with NO AID as the OP says. Just to bring another view on this echo chamber of “Israel =evil”.

Just because you called someone racist doesn’t mean you won. I’m allowed to dislike cultures that belittle women and LGBT people. They don’t belong in the 21st century

Gaza was given billions in aid. They could’ve built a decent economy but it was all wasted in an archaic tunnel network, weapons and a pointless war with Israel.

That’s rich from someone that seems to only read hamas propaganda. What about the misfired hamas mortar that landed in a hospital parking lot but hamas said was from Israel and killed 500 people? Turns out it actually killed like 5 people or something. That was propaganda from who?

Exactly. Like I said, Israel completely withdrew from Gaza in 2005 and gave the Palestinians the opportunity to govern themselves from there on.

What did they do? Elected hamas, the party that promised to kill all Jews. Oh so much peace…

Israel tried that - Gaza was left to the Palestinians.

You could complain about colonies in the West bank but not in gaza. No Israelis colonies were made there but hamas still wants to completely eradicate Jews from the neighbouring land.

No, just informed myself of the history regarding the territories in question instead blindly listening to what hamas says regarding the HUGE death toll. We’ve been listening to hospitals running out of fuel since the first week of the gaza siege. They were still running months after.

Tell me then what would be the solution to this problem when your neighbour wants to annihilate you? Israel completely left gaza in 2005, left infrastructure, gave them electricity and water for free. Palestinians could work in Israel and come back to gaza.

What did Israel get in return? A indiscriminate unprovoked massacre of civilians.

Israel is a beacon of civilization from a desert wasteland, gaza hardly evolved from thriving terrain. Who am I going to root for?
