We shouldn't conflate the people of Isreal with the extremist State of Isreal, we shouldn't conflate the people of Palestine with Hamas. Atrocities have been committed on both sides and each one is an atrocity, but the fact remains that the Palestinian people are living under an apartheid and therefore should be supported despite acts committed by extremists in it's name. This situation shouldn't be reduced to a simplistic one-sided team sport. Palestine still needs liberating.

Is this a leak? I thought this was common knowledge for years now.

The current (and I suspect future) government doesn't find it politically appetising or advantageous. That's the only reason we're still stuck decades behind Portugal.

"If you keep them busy with basic needs, they will forget about the freedoms that they have lost."

Make things difficult enough and all anyone as any energy for is meeting the most basic needs. Having a place to live, feeding a family, etc. Dire times.

I've been a ProtonVPN user for years and they have been rock solid since day one. It's also convenient for me as I have moved away from Google services and replaced them with Proton's other applications.
