Yes, it's heartbreaking that it turned violent. I can sympathize with the illegally occupied people who have their desire to be released from the world's largest open air prison with God knows how many crimes against humanity getting passed over by news cycles. "It must end now" is so myopic for the righteous anger of these people speaking the language of the unheard. It is clearly and visibly a reaction to their conditions and their conditions are unjustifiable. If anything must end now, it's the illegal occupation.
Would like to point out that the USA prison system has imprisoned around 7 million people currently living, Palestine has a population of 5 million
Just for comparison on the worlds largest prisons
I would just note that I'm not the one who coined the term "world's largest open air prison" for Gaza.
 of course
Yeah, I view it as a tragedy that is overwhelmingly the fault of the occupiers for creating this existential desperation, like how when you fuck the poor with policy the blood from resulting crime is on your hands at least as much as any of the criminals you put in that position (obviously fuck profiteers who are just exploiting the situation)
