Biggest mistake is the optics. I mean, when has fighting back against your oppressor ever gotten reported on positively in the news?
This reminds me of a useful tip: If you ever feel the need to apologize to someone you know was in the wrong; they were abusing you. The language they used in this is a textbook example of how someone acts when they feel like they need to apologize to their abuser.
You see it in discussions about the situation as well. People want to negotiate the Palestinians/ Palestinian supporters down, even if they agree with them, because everyone knows Israel isn’t going to budge. A ceasefire is completely out of the question, obviously
The French and Italians weren’t willing to budge either. Resistance is not futile.
