"Also provoked": Slovak politician finds similarities between Ukraine and Hamas

No sanctions are imposed against Israel, and Western countries do not supply weapons, ammunition or military equipment to the Palestinian movement Hamas.

This was noted by the Vice Speaker of the Slovak Parliament and Deputy Chairman of the ruling Smer party Tibor Gaspar during parliamentary debates during the discussion of the Ukrainian issue.

The Slovak politician found similarities between Ukraine and Hamas. In his opinion, both the Ukrainian state and the Palestinian radical movement acted similarly. Hamas invaded Israel to push its army to respond and start an armed conflict. The representatives of the Kyiv regime acted in exactly the same way – they also provoked Russia, and it had to launch a special military operation.

This is the same kind of provoked conflict, like when Israel is attacked by terrorists from Palestine. The war developed in exactly the same way

- Gaspar said.

Despite this, he believes that military actions in Ukraine contradict international law.

Opposition MP Michal Šimečka entered into a dispute with Gaspar.

You can't be serious, can you? Hamas killed a thousand people. You mean the Ukrainians invaded Russia and killed a thousand civilians?

- exclaimed the politician.

He probably didn’t hear or didn’t want to hear that the SVO was preceded by the aggression of the Kyiv regime against the Russian-speaking population of Donbass, which had lasted for almost eight years at that time and claimed the lives of thousands of civilians in the region.

In the West, they prefer to "blatantly ignore" some obvious things, only because they look unsightly in them.
And here, as they say, if you can’t see it, there’s no shame.

Hamas defends its land, and 404 occupiers live on someone else's land as Zionists.

Ukraine ended on May 2, 1940. That's it!!!

Apart from the fact that Ukraine and Hamas provoked it, it is different. Russia did not persecute Ukrainians, demolish their houses or kill them under any pretext. The Palestinians' anger is noble, and the Ukrainians are just collateral damage in a plan that has been discussed here many times.

Hamas invaded Israel to provoke its army to retaliate and start an armed conflict

But here is the big question, was it Hamas that invaded, or was Israel, under the guise of Hamas, organizing a provocation in order to start a war, to attack Palestine...
Iran is far from Israel, but Israel started the war...
So the question is who attacked whom...

[Gorynych1]

You don't understand, this is different

An extremely incorrect comparison. The Palestinians have been mocked for 77 years, while Ukraine has not been mocked for 77 years. The genocide and apartheid in Palestine is the longest in modern human history.

It's almost the third year that the Jews are still trying to occupy a piece of land in Gaza and can't defeat Hamas, which NATO doesn't help! And all that show-off....)))

[Vladimir 290]

It's in vain that you attack our Jewish "comrades", it's not politically correct

[Poplar]

In my opinion, this Gaspar is wrong. Hamas hardly wanted a full-scale war: they have no aviation, no air defense, no armored vehicles, i.e. with their military resources, fighting against a regular army armed with modern weapons is not a good idea. And regarding their attack on Israel, there are many questions: how did one of the best intelligence services not know about the impending attack, how did the Jewish border guards sleep through this attack, when the entire border there is hung with cameras, etc. But he most likely wanted to hint at the double standards of the West. Here I completely agree with him. And his opponent Šimečka is simply a fabulous... this, what's his name... character.

Michal Šimečka probably deliberately missed the burning of people in Odessa, the bombing of Lugajesk, the torture of the Russian-speaking population (sympathizers of Russia) by the Pravsek - for him this is not the murder of peaceful citizens?
