The girls I met in the tunnels

horrific!

 

Any news on if they plan to do another hostage/prisoner swap any time soon? I hope so.

 

Makes me wonder how the “Free Palestine” people can support these terrorists.

 

Or for that matter these people considering that LGBTQ persons are treated far better in Israel than in any country with an Islamic majority and especially a theocratic Islamic government like Hamas in Gaza.

The Postcolonial Left's Blindness to Islamic Homophobia

 

I am highly skeptical at this point that there can be such thing as a free and peaceful independent Palestinian state.

 

True, but trending in the wrong direction

 

There is ample evidence for that position

 

Islam: The religion of peace.

 

These scumbags sound like ISIS 2.0

 

It needs to happen, I just don't have any idea how.

At this point, both Israeli's and Palestinians are crazed, blood-thirsty, genocidal maniacs and have been for the last 100 years. It's generationally embedded. That's not a place from which reconciliation and compromise are likely to occur.

I've been doing a lot of reading and listening about the history of this conflict lately and the deeper I go, the less hopeful I've become.

 

Just Bari Weis propagandizing for an apartheid state actively committing genocide with the help of the US

 

That sums it up nicely.

 

Do you have proof of this? Rather huge claim to say Israel is committing genocide.
How can they both be doing more to help people in Gaza who are not Hamas than other surrounding Muslim countries and committing genocide against people in Gaza?
Israel is in a tough spot. They know aid and food need to get to the people of Gaza but a the same time they need to inspect everything going in since that is how Hamas was weaponized the first time.
Does Israel not have the right to defend itself?
This is far from what most want to see happen. I am guessing you would prefer Isreal to just give up land and leave huh...

 

I mean the country of South Africa just made an extremely detailed case at the Hague

South Africa v. Israel (Genocide Convention) - Wikipedia

 

Makes one wonder if something similar happened to an American town or city, what our response would be? Safe bet it would not be pretty.

 

I can’t put them at the same level. Seems like a false equivalency. I am not sure how you are supposed to defend yourselves against people who embed and hide weapons in hospitals, schools, nursery’s etc and have the participation of family and children in hostage taking.

 

You are violating board rules trying to actually gain knowledge before asserting your opinion.

What a waste of time. I can get everything I need to know in 10 minutes from my favorite source - what else could be necessary?

 

Iran is a big country, they should carve out a free Palestinian state. IMHO

 

I was just about to post this. It was more than just a “justifiable” counter action. across their country israelis were scared for their families lives.
