    JERUSALEM (AP) — Most of the protesters killed this week by Israeli fire along the border with the Gaza Strip were members of Hamas, the militant group said Wednesday, an assertion that deepens the starkly different narratives on both sides over the deaths.

    In an interview with Baladna TV, a private Palestinian news outlet that broadcasts via Facebook, senior Hamas official Salah Bardawil said 50 out of the nearly 60 protesters killed Monday were Hamas members, with the others being “from the people.”


    On Tuesday, the army released a video that appeared to show protesters detonating several explosions near the border. It also said its forces had killed a squad of Hamas gunmen who opened fire at troops.

    Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus, a military spokesman, said 14 of those killed Monday were actively involved in carrying out attacks.

    Why are you guys arguing with right wingers? He's going to keep moving the goal posts, nitpicking inconsequential facts, lying, etc., because he's arguing for injustice. He doesn't have to argue in good faith, his (and all Zionists) desired result is the continued subjugation and brutalization of Palestine's native population. His position is inherently unjust, why do you think he'll be honest?

    You left out an important quote

    But human rights groups say the identity of slain protesters, including a possible affiliation to a militant group, is irrelevant if they were unarmed and did not pose an immediate threat to the lives of soldiers when they were shot

    If it wasn't so tragic, this would almost be comic. Biden dismantled defunded the only entity (UNRWA) that was scaled up to provide food for the population of Gaza. The port is basically: let some other countries figure out how to get food in, because otherwise who would deliver it?

    The US armed forces? lol no, they'll likely get shot at by both Hamas and Israel. UNRWA? no, he'd have to eat shit and backtrack. The IDF? lol Hamas? lol

    I want to know what the Israelis have on the Biden family. This is absolutely fucking embarrassing. We're allowing them to butcher children because what? because why? Because Israel won't be friends with Russia as much anymore?

    Israel isn't our friend.

    LOL, MLK Jr. would absolutely not be okay with Israel's occupation of Palestine, god damn is that a reach. He probably would say Israel has a right to exist but holy shit that was wayyyy before the West Bank looks as it does today.

    I honestly think Israel has a right to exist, I want a two-state solution. I think the US also did the exact same thing to Native Americans that Israel is currently doing to Palestinians. We gave them shitty reservations and destroyed their lives, those that remained.

    Video posted includes a standard quote about white liberals. It’s not using MLk as a weapon to make points against Isreal. It’s about the white liberals

    … I think for the ultimate peace and security of the situation it will probably be necessary for Israel to give up this conquered territory because to hold on to it will only exacerbate the tensions and deepen the bitterness of the Arabs

    Which they did, they gave back the Sinai to Egypt in exchange for peace. They pulled out of Gaza in 2005 in hopes of peace and Hamas was elected and have bombarded them with rockets for 15 years. Dr. King was right.

    I’ve said from the start settler violence and settlers in the West Bank are the biggest obstacle to peace. Im glad Biden is taking action to sanction violent settlers in the West Bank.

    2005 was the start of a peace process which got us to 2008 which was the closest there’s ever been to a Palestinian state. That was the chance that was missed and now here we are

    I think MLK was assassinated in 1968 so we should probably not try and make him speak for a present day event.
