I'd never unfollow or unsubscribe, because I disagree with a view as long as that view is expressed in a way that is neither cruel nor purposefully bigoted.
I unfollowed a substack once because I felt the writer's views were overtly homophobic.
That said, here's my very different take on the situation, which I posted on another site that came to the same POV as yours.
Don't conflate "Palestinians" with "Hamas."
The Palestinian people have been so evilly served by their Hamas leaders who care only about staying in power and care nothing for the people they lead. Hamas is a terrorist kelptocratic government. The Palestinians ought to be staging a revolution against their government. But they won't and so now Israel will have to do it.
Thank you for this thoughtful post. I have also only learned the term nabka in 2024 and I have made an effort to study some of that history to which you referred. It is a complicated, horrible mess. Looking at it from one side only gets us nowhere.
This is exactly why I subscribed.
We cannot erase the facts and as uncomfortable as they are, we must remember that we are NEVER hearing the entire story.
Thank you for reminding me of what isn’t being said.
