Israel has been trying to blame Hamas for the recent escalation of violence. But who is really responsible for violence in Palestine/ Israel?
Hamas was founded in 1987. Was that when violence began in Palestine?
Of course not. The founding of Hamas was a mere response to Israeli violence. Israel had been massacring Palestinians for decades before Hamas even came into the picture.
Palestinians created Hamas to help resist Israeli brutality. Hamas is not a cause for violence. It is a resistance to it.
What about Israel? Can it be the reason for violence? Was there violence in Palestine prior to the establishment of Israel?
Yes, there was a lot of violence in Palestine before Israel was created.
And the violence was mainly the products of those who created Israel.
After World War 2, Zionist groups tried to force the British to give them the land of Palestine.
Two major terrorist groups were formed. One was the Irgun Zvai Leumi (National Military Organisation). Irgun was led by the future Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin.
The other was Lohamey Heruth Israel (Fighters for the Freedom of Israel) or LHI, also known as the Stern Gang after its leader, Abraham Stern. They assassinated Lord Moyne, the British Minister for the Middle East in November 1944.
In 1945, Jewish groups rioted in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem and bombed the railway line.

Israel was granted Palestinian land soon after.
The history of the state of Israel is one based on violence.
Violence is their go to action to get what they want.
This is a group dedicated to destruction. Stand in their way and they will use all the tools they have to destroy you.
Regardless if you are a British soldier, a Palestinian farmer or a baby in a hospital.
Israel will kill. Because that is what they do.
