Israel is holding Palestinians in an area without letting them come and go as they please. Israel controls the flow of food, water, electricity, and building materials into Gaza. Israel controls who can travel for life-saving (often simple) medical treatment BECAUSE THE FUCKING HOSPITALS IN GAZA CAN'T GET THE MACHINES/MATERIALS TO TREAT THEIR PEOPLE.

No but please, GO OFF KING and build up this strawman "Palestinian supporter" that doesn't understand history and present that as a justification for settler colonialism
