if you don't mind giving more information what do you mean by families you were in contact with? some type of unrelated people you were supporting or distant relatives or something

you and I are in full agreement that the attack at the music festival was bad. It was done by an evil group of people.

I am more concerned that attacks like that have been done over and over again, but when israel does it, the world turns it's head.

I can't speak to how the rest of the world responds, but suffice to say that I think Israel has perpetrated countless human rights violations and atrocities against the Palestinian people.

we were sending care packages, food and water to some impacted families near the borders.

My wife and I are Muslim, we were put in contact with some families in need during our last trip to the UAE.

for a few years we were assisting a couple of families who were displaced.

after a while, we were unable to send anything, everything was being intercepted and stolen.

but we were in contact with the families indirectly through our family in pakistan, and they've disappeared. In the same way that it happens all of the time.

They were either displaced, or murdered.

It sounds like a pathetic answer but a lot of this is do to desensitization and programming. We identify more with Israeli culture given it is westernized and for literally all of our lives there has been conflict and dying in Palestine. Not to mention the social media imagery which is absolutely disgusting and does a lot to shift sentiment. Seeing a building blown up doesn’t trigger the same emotional response as seeing a dead woman paraded in the streets. And so the general population won’t care as much if they feel they are acting on morality’s behalf.

Even though for every building blown up, every dead parent, child, spouse, sibling, you increase the level of radicalism.

This cycle just feels never ending and hopeless.

it's terrifying man. im in shambles today.

the gaza strip is boxed in, they couldnt leave if they wanted to. their water is being controlled , they are being "allowed" only 70% of the recommended water needed for life

nobody is helping them, and for those of us that try, everything just gets intercepted and stolen.

As long as Hamas remains in power in Palestine, the cycle will not end. Hamas and Iran prevent any meaningful progress in Palestine. The fact that the most street progress which was about to happen was brought by outsider Saudi Arabia, and fought by Hamas tells the story of where their loyalties actually lie. Not with the people.

Hamas bought and paid for by Iran who is bought and paid for by Russia. Israel bought and paid for by US. Cluster of cuckholds except the wives are fucking each other and to the death

they have no means to instill any meaningful leadership

Palestine is constantly under attack, they have to worry about how to get water every single day. The only way this stops is if the people of israel suddenly develop a conscience

gotta love the "but....but israel is doing this and that" as if its done for no reason

the status quo is the result of over 70 years of muslim terror and multiple wars

israel should surely deliver watermelon and fried chicken to the people, who massacre them whenever there is a chance
