Israel has an absolute right to defend itself being that Hamas is the one that started this war. Japan started a war with the United States and we finished it. Hitler started a war with the world and he lost.

Israel go-ahead fast and complete the operations in Rafa at the earliest

This will get worse before it gets better. Arab nations are gaining power and assertiveness. This won't just blow over. We need to work, proactively, toward peace and stop assuming each state can just continue looking out for their individual interests. That assumption is why we are in this position.

[@Swampfox953]

And what about Russia threatening a nuclear strike against Ukraine? What about Iran? A terrorist nation that wants to wipe all Western worlds off the face of the map.

[@dannyurbinder5965]

@@erichudson3023 a concentration camp? You do realise Israel unilaterally withdrew from Gaza in 2005 in pursuit of peace right? Immediately after then Hamas was voted into power, they slaughtered all political rivals and launched rockets into Israel. That’s been happening for 20 years. If you mean a blockade on the borders to prevent the smuggling of weapons and the containment of terrorists is a concentration camp then I suggest you check your definitions. I’d also be asking myself why Egypt also blockades its border with Gaza.

“The Palestinian people do not exist. There are no differences between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. We are part of one people, the Arab nation. Lo and behold, I have relatives with Palestinian, Lebanese, Jordanian and Syrian citizenship. We are one people. It is only for political reasons that we carefully endorse our Palestinian identity. Indeed, it is of national interest for the Arabs to encourage the existence of the Palestinians in the face of Zionism. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity is only for tactical reasons. The establishment of a Palestinian state is a new means to continue the struggle against Israel and for Arab unity.” _- Zuheir Mohsen, PLO leader 1971-79_ *Jews have lived Israel in Israel since ancient times.* The Judea and Samaria Area of the West Bank covers a portion of the territory designated by the biblical names of Judea and Samaria. Both names are tied to the ancient Israelite kingdoms: the former corresponds to part of the Kingdom of Judah, also known as the Southern Kingdom; and the latter corresponds to part of the Kingdom of Israel (Samaria), also known as the Northern Kingdom. The Arabs conquered the land in the 7th century during an Islamic caliphate and ruled for over 1,400 years. In 1948 the Jews defeated the Arabs and reclaimed their ancestral homeland.
