- #Israel is carrying out #genocide in #Gaza.

- Context! You must go back… all the way to October 7.

- Sure, let’s go back: let’s go back 76 years to May 15, 1948, to the #Nakba; the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people where 750,000 people were “expelled from their homes or made to flee, at first by Zionist paramilitaries through various violent means, and after the establishment of the State of Israel, by the Israel Defense Forces.” (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba)

- No, no, not like that.

@aral I found https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGH94HoSJ2s&pp=ygUaaW1wZXJpYWwgd2FyIG11c2V1bSBpc3JhZWw%3D (and part 2) a seemingly good primer on how we got here.

I have no subject matter experience or expertise so can't *vouch* for its accuracy, but I certainly felt better informed after watching.
