(en) Sicilia Libertaria: Sciru damn - The hypocrisy of the equidistant (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Sun, 11 Feb 2024 09:46:40 +0200


Prudent democrats, even in the face of the extermination of almost 30,000 defenseless Palestinians by the Israeli army, continue to invoke equal conditions and to reiterate that if we must talk and negotiate a humanitarian truce (a few days of respite before other ferocious bombings) we need to distance ourselves from the aggression carried out by Hamas on 7 October against the State of Israel. ---- It is thus easy to convey the narrative of the Israeli counteroffensive, almost a sort of right to defense. ---- But did the Palestinian resistance (it wasn't just Hamas, but all the components were there) really made an incursion into Israeli territory? Or is it not true that it entered one of the many Palestinian territories occupied, usurped, colonized by Israel?

The difference is not insignificant: those lands were expropriated by force of arms and with violence from the legitimate inhabitants, who were expelled.

When Northern Italy was occupied by the Nazis and the German army, no one dreamed and still dreams of saying that the partisans carried out actions against a legitimate state; they were acts carried out in a part of Italy occupied by a foreign army and governed by a puppet regime in its hands. The only ones who considered them terrorists and bandits were precisely the latter.

Local respectability (but not only) continues to define Hamas as "terrorist" while asking the State of Israel to limit the damage to the population of Gaza, as if 30,000 deaths were just a detail. At the same time, however, it supports Ukraine from aggression.

In wars cruelty and violence are the rule; Unfortunately, no resistance force escapes you. But the hypocrisy of the equidistant poisons information and provides the necessary cover for the ongoing carnage; it is also a weapon in this war of extermination.
