I am sure some other anarchists might have already mentioned this (I dont know & cant remember), but towards the beginning of this genocide it occurred to me & I mentioned too.
The primary reason why Palestinians are oppressed (by extension everyone else who are oppressed across the world) is because they are systematically denied the tools of self-defence to free themselves of the oppression.
The reason why this genocide is going on now is because there is no deterrence for the oppressor (genocidal entity) for commiting the crimes its committing.
If Palestinians had weapons, this fascist entity would have never dared to commit the crimes it has been committing for nearly a century.
One thing is a given. Every oppressed population would want to fight back for their dignity incl Palestinians, but they are systematically denied the tools to defend themselves & one of the most important thing they need is weapons.
All "political solutions" without them having access to tools of self-defence will only be oppression with another name.
For those who dream of a society without oppression, without State, without Capital, without all other systems of domination (Fascism/Racism/Misogyny/Casteism/Religion/…), one of the most important thing is public dissemination of knowledge of weapon manufacturing.
Even in theory its impossible to emancipate without weapons when the enemy have them, this enemy not just some but have warehouses of them with an industrial pipeline filling its supply lines, while its oppressed have none.
The reason why State has "export controls", marks details as "classified"/"state secrets", makes its industries hide all of this under "know how", "trade secrets" (using the intellectual property scam), criminalises weapon manufacturing that it doesn't control is mainly because it wants its primary enemies (people it rules over) to not have any mechanism of self-defence to fight back.
This way it can oppress "peacefully" while in the best case all its victims are allowed to do is "protest" aka so called "freedom of speech", … i.e go & shout till you exhaust yourself & nothing more.
You do realize that the leading ideological movements among Palestinians are Fatah (National) and Hamas (religious), and that currently Iran (religious, national) pumps them weapons so Palestinians fight a proxy war for Iran.
the genocide has only escalated, it didn't just start. but yes, disarming Palestinians to make it easier to displace and dispossess them is part of that plan. that's why armed resistance groups exist and have funding and supplies from outside Gaza. armed resistance may as well happen because Israel will murder Palestinians whether they are armed or not.
