Resistance violence is birthed in response to violence from systemic oppression.
Violence from Systems of oppression is integral to systems of oppression.
Systems of oppression do not need an external motivator for violence, they just are violent. They are built entirely through violence.

Back in June, former Knesset member Moshe Feiglin affirmed Hitler, saying:

“Just as Hitler vowed to eliminate every Jew... I say: we cannot live in this land as long as one Muslim remains in Gaza. They must be eliminated.”

Want peace? Oppose Israel AND Hamas.

The hidden world has its clouds and rain, but of a different kind.
Its sky and sunshine are of a different kind.
This is made apparent only to the refined ones – those not
deceived by the seeming completeness of the ordinary world.

~ Rumi, in Idries Shah, The Way of the Sufi.
