Do not misunderstand my words. This is a harsh reality that everyone must acknowledge. If you fail to understand this, defeat is guaranteed. Let me start by saying that I do not support Israel. Besides the U.S. government, I believe they are one of the most evil nations.

But that only emphasizes the point I am about to make. The reason evil is so successful is because good people allow it.

It has been three years since Israel launched a genocide campaign without even attempting to hide its actions. They have been doing this for decades, but now there is no holding back. I have watched people protest, the United Nations express concern, and countries post on Twitter that they do not support it. But all of these responses have one thing in common: a lack of action.

"Free Palestine" is a statement that cannot stop genocide; it is a passive phrase consisting of two words. It means nothing and accomplishes nothing, as you can see.

If you truly want a free Palestine, it is time to face the truth: you are in a war, and the enemy must be defeated.

Anyone who is triggered by my words (the reality of this situation) you are simply too emotional and think words affect people, which is exactly why you think the catchphrase Free Palestine will work

Thats a lot of words to say absolutely nothing ngl

Let me make it shorter and clearer. You all talk but do nothing. All Palestinians will be slaughtered if people just keep saying free Palestine but take no action.

Words affect people. This is a fact.

"Free Palestine" won't save children in the short term, but, thanks to all the people who have shared these two words, you now have the eyes of the whole world closely watching the genocide unfolding.

Is it enough? No. Would be better without it? No.
