“Terms such as ‘military presence’, ‘voluntary immigration’ and ‘bombs are falling’ have done a lot of heavy lifting since the ‘conflict’ started"

      Go educate your self instead of embarassing yourself.

      Occupation is not just having soldiers in the land. Control over borders, airspace, and territorial waters, as well as its population registry, and movement of goods and people is also occupation like israel do in gaza

      All the UN report consider gaza and the west bank occupied

        It’s sad how quickly those rushing to defend Israeli violence fail to understand anything other than basic and easily disproven talking points they’ve used.

        In other comments they didn’t think there was any violence before Oct 7.so not at all surprising they didn’t realize Gaza has been occupied and controlled by Israel

      As others said, actually do research before rushing to the defense of anyone.

      Just one example of the occupation is Israel controls all water in Gaza, including rain water
