I couldn't seem to be able to reblog you answer and i dont know whether it's intentional or not.

Anyway, thank you for responding. I understand your concern and I'm glad you decided to answer me.

Firstly, it's good to see that at least one person in this shithole reads stuff when it comes to politics and not just rely on infographics on social media and fake news.

About religion: this conflict isn't based on religion, and most jewish and muslim people i know don't really care about it overall. This is about the constant fear of literal death hanging over our heads, on both sides.

For the past 75 years (and this is like the bare minimum) israelis and palestinians have been fighting over everything, and i can assure you that there is no single soul on this earth profiting from this hideous war. Non of us enjoy living in terror (and gaza is ruled by the terrorist organisation hamas, incase you didn't know), non of us want this to continue and unfortunately both sides can't seem to find an acceptable solution.

I saw a lot of posts about how israel is the bad guy because we had about 10 dead and the palestinians had like 150, so how can you possibly compare?!? We can't, but people can't demand us to not protect our citizens from thousands of rockets that could've killed hundreds, nor to not respond when two million people have to run for shelter. This is war, not kindergarten. I understand your point about the death and destruction, it makes me sad too, but sometimes people who live in Europe or Asia or the USA or whatever miss the point that we only attack as retaliation.

This conflict isn't gonna just magically end over #freepalestine trending nor by israel giving the Palestinians land and authority over themselves (simply because the current rulers are corrupted and radical). Nonetheless, i truly hope we can eventually over come this.

I still don't know if I'm going to unfollow you or not, but i think i should probably take some time off Tumblr for a while.

Stay safe🇮🇱💙
