> To ask Palestine government to do anything meaningful, yes, they have done a lot
Yes, but still not enough, or its people's survival will not depend on the kindness of others. In my opinion, it's not a competent government, at least based on its performance so far.
Palestine has been under illegal military occupation for 58 years [1], it is not exactly an independent government in control of its territory.
It is the duty of the occupying power to ensure the safety of the civilians within the territory it has occupied. A duty Israel, with its use of starvation as a weapon of war and habit of shooting medics in the back of the head, is obviously not fulfilling.
The PLO hasn't even run elections for a couple decades. It is notoriously corrupt. I don't really see how ignoring that out of "solidarity" is supposed to practically help the palestinians.
Wow!!! You are not contributing to this discussion whatsoever!
+1 for me to quit posting on hn
This type of word spinning is distasteful, and more importantly, it's a sign of significantly weaker mind capacity than past level I recall joined hn 10ish years ago.
The first thing you should be doing, is to read the link, fire up AI deep research with some neutrally toned question to gather information.
The reason hn drew me in, was people actually always aim for contributing to the discussion constructively. That's not the norm nowadays.
I do not know exactly, since I do not work there. Those in charge and empowered have a duty to find a way out and protect their people (forgiveness and peace).
As for me, I’m just an ordinary person, believing that all lives matter worldwide. And if many innocents continue to die meaninglessly, I consider their governments incompetent for the job.
Are you suggesting that they (just to clarify, I’m referring to the government leaders, not the maliciously misinterpreted starving innocents) are competent and that all the other governments are to blame?
This is an extremely naive statement. You might want to do some more research before blaming the victims of a multi-decade multibillion dollar assault any further.
