PLO, Palestinians, Hamas, Gaza. Pallywood.
So many lies, it's hard to know where to start.
Gaza is said to be a closed-air prison. It's not in the least.
Gaza is the most dense place on the planet? No, it's not even in the top 150. With 2.2 million people on 365 sq km's, this comes to 6,000 people per sq km, about 16x less dense that Malé Maldives (107,000 people per sq km), 3.4x less dense than Paris, France, and 3.1x less dense than Union City (19,000 people per sq ft).
As far as the amount of destruction?
Not much compared to typical urban warfare in the last 8 decades: For example, the ancient city of Aleppo, Syria, once the Vienna of the Middle East, has been reduced to rubble thanks to infighting between ISIS, Al Quds, and the Iranians (IRGC). Hamburg and Dresden were reduced to rubble by the allies in 1942-45.
The population is being starved by Israel? Well, not that it's Israel's job to feed its enemies during wartime, reality is, over 250,000 tonnes of food (450,000 tons including other items like water and medical supplies) has been facilitated by Israel (while Egypt has sealed its border with Gaza) and delivered since the war began. That's the equivalent of 55 weeks of food for every man, woman, and child of Gaza.

It took Bojan 20-ish minutes to write this, after seeing a Syrian girl with golden shoes in the news, walking around a destroyed town. He was 18 at the time

ISRAELI OCCUPATION FORCES LAUNCH STRIKES AGAINST SYRIAN CITY OF ALEPPO
📹 Scenes from the destruction wrought by airstrikes launched by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) targeting the Syrian city of Aleppo early on Friday morning, resulting in dozens of casualties.
According a military source quoted by the Syrian media, “Nearly at 1:45 am, the Israeli enemy launched an air attack from the direction of Athriya, southeast of Aleppo, targeting a number of points in Aleppo countryside coincided with an air attack carried out by terrorist organizations from Idlib and the western countryside of Aleppo province in an attempt to target civilians in Aleppo and its surroundings."
In addition to the overnight airstrikes, IOF warplanes also bombed a residential building in the Damascus countryside on Thursday, killing two civilians and dealing material damage to residential structures.

Okay, as much as I understand the anger of people who are victims of Western media bias against POC, as an Eastern European I feel that we have to explain one thing about the “white people’s war” rhetoric towards the Russian invasion on Ukraine.
This rhetoric still perpetuates the Western ignorance of Russian imperialism & colonialism. It still perpetuates the idea of Russian imperial innocence - which is deadly. Russia is not and never was innocent, period. The first time the name “Russia” (Rossiya) appears in history is when the Grand Duchy of Moscow decides that it is the Third Rome, steals Byzantine symbolism and rhetoric and decides to play new Romans in Eastern Europe, Siberia, the Caucasus and Central Asia. When Westerners see the war in Ukraine, both the left and right sides of the political spectrum see only white Ukrainians, because it is convenient to them. When Eastern Europeans and other post-Soviet people (apart from Russians) see the war in Ukraine, we get flashbacks from Syria and Chechnya. Mariupol literally was given the same treatment as Aleppo and Grozny. C’mon, just Google the Chechen wars and read stories of victims of Russian colonial violence. Read the stories of people who experienced violence in Russian prisons of war. And we fear that might be next.
This rhetoric perpetuates the idea that the Russian invasion of Ukraine hurts only Europeans, in particular, white Europeans, which is simply not true. This war deepens the global food crisis. This war already hurts countries in Africa and South Asia. Those countries cannot afford for the food prices to go up once again, especially after the crisis caused by the pandemic, period. (Unless you wish for more people in Africa and South Asia to experience hunger… but then stop calling yourself an anti-racist).
This rhetoric also perpetuates the idea that all Europeans = white, Western, privileged Europeans and erases the Eastern European experience. And we have experienced too much of white Western b*llshit, believe us.
