    this just makes me think of the recent Chapo with Mohammad Alsaafin where he proposes that Hamas has realized “western sympathy” has little to no value

      Everybody should listen to that part of the podcast, as well as the section before about the March of Return protests a few years ago. Gazans tried doing the non-violent civil disobedience that western liberals insist that they do, and all it got them was cut down by sniper fire in front of an indifferent world. They have no options left but armed conflict, and the condemnation of western liberals is beyond irrelevant.

      I’ve heard that from others. It makes sense. America played mediator in absolutely bad faith for years.
