Each side trying to cancel the other.
If we were to recognise international law, then we have to accept the Palestinians are under occupation and blockade and have a genuine right to fight their oppressors and want a better life for themselves.
October 7 did also include an attack on an Israeli military base.
I don't see why Palestinians can't talk about October 7 in the context of and aspirations for freedom.
Some part of me thinks 'Yes if these people are kept in a concentration camp for decades and they conduct a jailbreak and go on a rampage against their oppressors' the writers amongst these people get to write a book, and if Israeli's or Zionists disagree they should state their borders and come into compliance with international law, stop subjagating these people and stop trying to silence anyone that speaks out or opposes it.
They only want to silence everyone, so that they can keep doing the thing they were doing, 'genocide' and 'ethnic cleansing' / 'land theft' 'rape' 'torture' 'murder' 'assassinations' 'wilful starvation and denial of basic needs' 'killing journalists and first responders' ...blowing up not just doctors, but entire hospitals - all of 36 of them and denying kids anesthetic for amputations.
Basically just complete terror on a nationwide level.
THE STUFF THAT MAY VERY WELL HAVE LEAD TO BONDI
Why should a Palestinian (Now Australian?) be prevented from saying what they think or venting their anger and frustration at Israel?
Like we're not aussie, and this woman can't have a few drinks as Aussie women sometimes like to do (not that I'm saying she does)
And speak her mind, and lash out a bit, get angry and emotional
Call Israel murderous and shite and wish they didn't exist.
It's not really unreasonable for her to feel that way you know.
We're becoming pretty pathetic if we carry on telling her she has no right to publicly speak her mind or vent her frustration or anger.
Like really pathetic.
Stupid Jewish censorship.
Let the woman speak.
