Pretty wild how anarchists are responsible for all these bad things they didn’t do

Pretty sure the only people who made all those bad things worse were the actual fascists involved and not people fighting against those fascists

“The significance of the disengagement plan is the freezing of the peace process, and when you freeze that process, you prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state, and you prevent a discussion on the refugees, the borders and Jerusalem. Effectively, this whole package called the Palestinian state, with all that it entails, has been removed indefinitely from our agenda. And all this with authority and permission. All with a presidential blessing and the ratification of both houses of Congress. That is exactly what happened.”

Dov Weissglass, senior advisor to Ariel Sharon, explaining the disengagement plan in 2004.

Israel has no defined borders because the Israeli state has never attempted to assert a claim to formal borders. To assert the 1967 ceasefire line would invalidate the colonial settlement project; to claim the mandatory borders would run afoul of the whole post-WWII prohibition on territorial aggrandizement through conquest.

So the Israeli state deliberately eschews formal borders to exploit the resulting ambiguity.

Do Gazans earn a right to imprison Israelis behind a country-spanning wall to defend themselves from ongoing Israeli attacks?

Long after Israeli leaders knew exactly what Hamas was, they continued to prop up Hamas because Hamas was a convenient excuse to avoid engaging in a substantive peace process.

Israel has well-defined borders with its state neighbors. It has eschewed formal claims on borders with Palestinians because doing so would either a) place the territories outside of Israel’s borders, confessing the occupation, or b) place the territories inside Israel’s borders, confessing conquest. Israel’s lack of borders is a deliberate strategy of ambiguity.

Israel withdrew from Gaza in the same sense as prison guards withdrawing from cell blocks—they still controlled the fences, and Gazans are still prisoners.

You’re attacking your own argument. Did you forget your own argument and then attack it because of how dumb it sounds?

The de facto Israel-Syria border is not internationally recognized because the world adopted a norm after World War Two of not rewarding states for territorial conquest.

"I ask our prime minister and our fellow parliamentarians: how many international rights laws must Israel break for us to say enough? How many lives does it take to call this a genocide?" Senator Payman asked.

"I see our leaders performatively gesture defending the oppressors' right to oppress while gaslighting the global community about [Israel's] rights of self-defence."

Israeli state actors routinely violate Israeli laws, much less international law. From prohibitions on rape, murder, and theft to the use of human shields in combat, this is a feature, not a bug.
