    A very prominent figure in the Belgian neolib party (the ruling one) got on tv to talk about Gaza. He called Israel an apartheid State and he says that Palestinians have no other option than to die, live under oppression or flee. He even went as far as to say that if he were born in Gaza he himself would have become a terrorist to fight Israel. He says Israel is one of the worst disgraces of the century.

    Now, I was blown away by this. This is even more harsh words than our party leaders use on tv. Like, fuck me man I 100% agree.

    And this all goes directly against his own party’s stance too.

        Oh no it’s still shit. It’s neolib mixed with Flemish nationalism. But he thinks this way because years ago he visited Israel and got to see how Palestinians were living and how they were treated and that radicalized him when it comes to Gaza.

        Which shows that he at least has some integrity. He is pushing his party to take action and as some sort of last resort has now decided to go on live shows to talk about it.
