Tweet is from around February 2022; I’m not visiting that cesspool to find the exact date.

If it is Feb '22 then that's an extremely prescient tweet, as the Palestinian Genocide didn't start until Oct '23.

Remember: nothing happened before 7/10/2023

7/10/2023? The date you gave was three days ago.

Also, obviously there is a bloody long history there. However this is still the only all out war since 2014. It just seemed like weird timing to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I do actually know a fair bit about the history of the conflict in Palestine.

This video by Middle East Eye is a decent summary of the reasons IMO.

Specifically the fact that Saudi Arabia was in the process of normalizing relations with the occupiers, but no longer is.

Wrong person? Also I'm not watching a 10min vertical video. xD

No, it’s for you, since you talked about the timing. I could have made that more clear though.

I’m not sure what the layout of the video has to do with anything, but yes, you don’t have to watch it.
