Israel is a colony invented by Western powers that at its creation committed a massive genocide against Palestinians to steal their land (see: the Nakba). Since then, Israel has consistently maintained a policy of ethnic cleansing to steal more Palestinian land by settling new areas, expelling the indigenous Palestinians, and only incorporating them into Israel once it meets demographic criteria.

The UN has called what Israel is doing apartheid, and fun fact when apartheid was a less bad word Israel knew it too – it was one of the closest allies with apartheid South Africa and they closely collaborated especially militarily on suppressing their respective indigenous liberation movements.

And by the way, Israel helped create Hamas as a way to undermine secular Palestinian resistance .

The current state of affairs is that millions of Palestinians are displaced from Palestine altogether, and millions more remain but cannot return to their homes in the occupied territories. Gaza is the world’s largest concentration camp with 2 million people trapped inside, half of them under the age of 18, with no ability to leave. Israel has regularly bombed hospitals, schools, mosques, and other humanitarian sites, is not allowing humanitarian aid in, and in the most recent escalations has shut off access to food and water.

These are children resisting a multi billion dollar nuclear military from stealing their home, there is no balanced two sides to this story

Really hard to answer that 😂

Right now I think my favorites would be Dominion, Betrayal at the House on the Hill, The Captain is Dead, and Codenames

Yep, that’s definitely just 3
