    TBH it’s not like Palestinian’s resistance equipment and capabilities have seemed much of a concern for Israel even when they were at 100%

    As it’s often the case with statements published during wartime (and also ones in more peaceful times), it’s more interesting to look at where the statement comes from and ask oneself why they say so now than the actual contents of the statement (which are often unverifiable anyways).

        It’s spelled like a name for something, like an organization.

          Is it the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine? Wait maybe it’s the Palestinian Popular Struggle Front? The Palestinian Islamic Jihad? Sorry no, I think the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine! Actually no my bad, I think Popular Revolutionary Front for the Liberation of Palestine? Palestine Liberation Organization maybe? The Alliance of Palestinian Forces? 🤔

          Wanna keep playing that game? I doesn’t matter which group it is. Israel and the US are going to say they are a problem, international law is gonna remain on their side. And ethics is still going to tell you that criticizing liberation movement makes you the bad guy, spwcially if you don’t first criticize the god damn oppressor.

          I cried when they shot mr. kennedy

          As though i’d lost a father of mine

          But malcolm x got what was coming

          He got what he asked for this time

          So love me, love me, love me, i’m a liberal

            You’re being really weird about them asking if Palestinian Resistance was a specific Palestinian resistance organization

              They are the ones who asked a very clearly leading question. I don’t think it’s “weird” to be calling them out.

                They even clarified with “it’s spelled like a name for something, like an organization” lol

                  What’s the point you’re trying to make exactly? I don’t think you understand this interaction at all.

    This is more believable if he’s including military capabilities of Palestine resistance groups in Lebanon.
