Gaza has 2 million inhabitants, 42.3% of which are 14 and younger. Anyone else a little bit worried?

    it will be the beginning of the end for them if they do.

    Please don't hang too much hope on this. The counter-offensive will likely be absolute barbarism. Israel has an enormous military advantage. I don't know what will happen but it's very likely that Palestine's position will be drastically worse when this is over. I am sure they will fight with valiant creativity and unimaginable bravery, but I need you all to be ready to keep going if this results in a crushing defeat.

      Palestine cannot win alone, but I do not think they will be alone. That's part of why the initial offensive was so successful, Israel can't put its army surrounding Gaza when Syria and Iran and Egypt exist.

      I need you all to be ready to keep going if this results in a crushing defeat.

      Nothing online matters

          The advantage of leftists is they only need to succeed once. They can still lose most of the time and come out ahead in the long term.

      If we're still here after the commune and the USSR's collapse we're not going anywhere.

      People forget the first 300 years of Capitalism was also crushing defeat vs the Fuedalists.

        "we" as leftists might still be here but that doesn't mean most of the Palestinians will be
