"#Israel is staging a massive offensive across four major refugee camps in the north of the #WestBank. The raids, at their height, pushed 40,000 people from their homes. Many are now sheltering with relatives in neighboring villages, others racking up debt renting apartments while they wait to return.

#Israeli officials, meanwhile, have said those displaced will not be allowed to go back for at least a year."

    When Israel has “cleared”, flattened and militarized the entire West Bank and Gaza, they will realize that Palestine will still not be gone, and neither will the Palestinian people. A lesson they could have learnt a lot easier and quicker by looking at their own history.

    Ever since all the MLs helped get Trump elected, I have no time to focus on Gaza while I try to find a way out of my own mess.

    This was their plan all along, of course.

      Spoken like someone that needs to read the history of the Nazi party.

          No, they didn’t.

          You need to reread your history books.

            My history book says Hitler (Nazism) and Stalin (Marxism-Leninism) invaded Poland together, which is widely considered to be what began the second world war.

            What part of that statement do you take issue with?

      If you believe that MLs helped Trump elected in any significant way, you’ve lost the plot. To help regain it you should look into the size and type of the various lobbying and agitation efforts of Israel-connected organizations and people.

        I’m assuming users on .ml instances, even though it doesn’t make the slightest bit of sense.

          mainliners

          Is this some sort of established lemmy jargon? Like calling people “NPCs” or “normies”? 🤨

            It’s open-source software development jargon.

            Mainline is the location where the original software has its source code. A fork is when someone decides they want to modify said software their own way and so they make a copy.

        In a nut shell, Fake communists who pushed “genocide Joe” and not-voting during the 2024 election contribution to low democratic voter turn out, giving Trump the win.

          Leaving the fact that I still haven’t had anyone explain what “ML” actually means aside…

          Fake communists

          lol what?

          who pushed “genocide Joe” and not-voting during the 2024 election contribution to low democratic voter turn out, giving Trump the win

          When you commit a genocide, you forfeit the right to complain if people refuse to vote for you. Joe Biden and the Democrats gave Trump the win because they continued slaughtering tens of thousands of innocent women and children in Gaza. And people are starting to realize that Democrat vs. Republican is just right-wing zionist infighting.

            And Trump continues the same game, but worse. So if the intention was to make the world worse in the future, with no hope for reform, then the ML was successful.

            But ML is very much in favor of authoritarianism, with tanks. So… I guess this is supposed to the the worse before the better? The better that has and will never come.

            Sounds like fake communism to me.

            ML = Marxism-Leninism

            An ideology developed by Joseph Stalin to justify Russian Imperial ambition.

            AKA, the people who aided the Nazis in their invasion of Poland.
