Life isn’t a marvel movie so there aren’t good guys or bad guys.

I dunno, I feel like if, in my state, angry mobs were lynching mailmen while screaming “Hispanics to Tijuana, Blacks to the grave,” I’d be comfortable enough considering them bad guys to join hands with any organized force that was serious about crushing them, even if that force was under the command of Gavin Newsom.

no people are not pro-isis and alqaeda and they are mostly with the protestors and stuff, theres wide recognition that the protests got hijacked bigtime by the west and its cronies but theres also recognition that assad enabled that hijacking by starting the war in the forst six months leading to the mass radicalization.

its a tough situation, a friend of mine was one of the people who was an anarchist and early on was organizing protests and local councils, he got picked up early by assad, tortured brutally and died in assads dungeons, so many many people made the choice they would rather take up arms or flee or allow themselves to be hijacked by foreign interests.

so people like me, who witnessed that brutality, are sympathetic for the big number of people who were protesting early like my friend, then when assad started his mass murder campaign at that point it became about pure hatred and revenge. you can even read my post history where im a frothing at the mouth bloodthirsty crazy person at the time because i was driven by a grief and anger and just purely out for revenge, also since egypt got hijacked by Sisi the thought that assad too would stay on was driving people crazy. people wanted a win, any win against fascism and sadly thay didnt come. people immediately recognized ISIS as a tool and a cudgel arab fascism would use against any internal opposition.

and the syrian opposition whatever 'official' position exister, sadly discredited themselves bigtime, whether its by its complete slavery to foreign interests, its stupid factionalism, and other things, they too share a blame.

and people in general are extremely bitter that arab governments allowed assad to do what he did then rewarded him with normalization afterwards, then it became crystal clear that theyre all in the same boat together in this.

so to me, arab inaction in the face of gaza is a complete not surprise, they let america rape iraq, they let everyone rape syria, so its no surprise theyre letting israel do what its doing, because theyre on the same side.

always interested in your perspective as a "guy on the ground" in events that we can only examine through the lens of distant geostrategic interests, thnx for sharing

Anybody who wants to use Palestine to relitigate the Syrian Civil War isn't a serious person. Writing off Quds Network because you hate the rebels in Idlib is little more than petty grudge bearing.

Basically to the extent they could co-opt or use them for their own ends.

they’ve had no actual outside support from any government. a rule of thumb is that any government upping the Palestinians is lying.

Yeah, the "best" the monarchies and dictatorships will do for the Palestinians is support them the way the US "supports" Ukraine, i.e. try to eke out a strategic advantage for themselves by grinding their proxy's bones into dust

quote:

Al Jazeera has received horrific testimonies of people trapped in the Shifa Medical Complex and surrounding homes in Gaza City, while the World Health Organization (WHO) has called for an immediate end to the inhumane siege imposed by the Israeli occupying forces on Shifa Hospital.

For the sixth consecutive day, the Israeli occupation army continues to storm Al-Shifa Hospital, which housed more than 7,000 patients and displaced people, and carries out widespread arrests among the displaced, and bombards the houses surrounding the hospital, leaving dozens of dead and wounded.

The Palestinian Jamila Al-Hissi, who is besieged in the vicinity of Al-Shifa complex, told Al-Jazeera that the occupation forces forced 65 families to leave the vicinity of the complex, after burning the building in which they were holed up, adding that the besieged have been appealing to the Red Cross for 6 days to provide water for children and patients, or intervene to evacuate them to no avail.

"The occupation forces killed and burned entire families, and raped and killed women."

In turn, journalist Jihad Abu Shanab said in the vicinity of the Shifa complex to Al Jazeera that dozens of families have been trapped without water or food for six days in homes and neighborhoods near the Shifa complex, and are being subjected to gunfire and heavy aerial and artillery shelling, and have been appealing for several days to the Red Cross and international organizations to intervene to save them.

Abu Shanab pointed out that some citizens who managed to leave told him that the martyrs and injured dozens were in the streets, and that the occupation forces demolished 8 houses on the heads of their inhabitants.

He stressed that this invasion is more difficult than the first invasion of Al-Shifa Complex, and the bloody heat is very large, stressing that the occupation forces deal with everyone inside Al-Shifa Medical Complex or the surrounding houses as terrorists who must be eliminated.

A child, a survivor of the executions carried out by the Israeli occupying forces after their release from Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City, said that all those who were with him were killed by the occupation snipers, despite being informed that they were safe, after being detained by the occupying forces for several hours.
