The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct ‘Palestinian people’ to oppose Zionism. For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan.” “Wij zijn alleen Palestijn om politieke reden,” James Dorsey, Trouw, 31 March 1977

"Using people as human shields" What an excuse for terrorists and murderers to kill people, if someone is using people as human shields as you are alleging, why in the first place the Israeli terrorist regime invaded Gaza, bombing recklessly civilians areas, even when they knew there were civilians, the fact that brainwashed and extremists like you in the west do not know is that 25000 civilians, most of them women and children have been killed intentionally by the Jewish terrorist regime, Have you even heard from people who know what is actually happening in Gaza, the Israeli regime is killing civilians intentionally because it is a terrorist regime... It even attacked people (civilians) who were leaving the city for safer places, the regime killed intentionally about 200 journalists, who were witness to crimes of the terrorist regime.

[@sshender3773]

How exactly did Israel fail, if they're not done with Gaza yet, and where they are (Northern Gaza), it's only a matter of time until all of its infrastructure is destroyed. If the Palestinian's Arab "brothers" were not so adamant on keeping the civilian population trapped in Gaza, and have allowed them to sit out the war in the Sinai, for example, then this would have taken much less time, but then again, that's precisely the purpose, to make it as hard on Israel as possible, even at the expense of their own civilians' suffering. With enough force and willingness to take casualties, any guerilla organization can be taken out. The ideology will remain, but the military force can be reduced to almost non-existent. Granted, as we've seen with WW2 even ideologies can be expunged if you're allowed to wage a total war, which alas, Israel is always prevented from doing, even by its so-called allies. The US and its allies have enough firepower to reduce Iran's and all its proxies' military capability to nothing more than small arms, RPGs and some smaller drones. The rest can be easily wiped out, if the political will was there. And it doesn't even require any boots on the ground. Taking out Iran's oil refineries alone, would cripple its economy, and presents a powerful bargaining chip, if only the US and its allies were willing to play the same game that their adversaries are. Iran's best weapon is the West's fear and hesitancy of getting into another war, because they have grown weary of overseas conflicts. As well as the West's internal divisions and lack of any strategic vision, both in Ukraine and the Middle East. And most likely vis-a-vis China too.

@@MrDenzal27 I mean, I personally doubt that only because they were already there. Why arm the Taliban as an excuse to come back if you already had a presence in the country. I think Biden has been wrong his entire career much foriegn policy and this was his greatest disaster. Basically I blame the Biden admins stupidity or lack of understanding vs anything else. Biden was a Obama lackey which is another president who ruined western interest in vital regions.

That fiasco was arranged by Donald Trump immediately before he left office. He knew it would be FUBAR and make President Biden look to be responsible. It's in the Historical Record.

"We Could Take Out Houthi Infrastructure In Yemen Within 24 Hours" Than WHY are you not doing it.More talk

[@raidenn2566]

Because this is a "Former" real admiral. He does not call any shots. They functionally have the capability. In any of these kind of scenarios there are probably dozens of scenarios being drawn up for how to engage. Any kind of operation that involves "Taking Out Houthi Infrastructure In Yemen Within 24 Hours" is a Biden call. soo....

Have done any research on what the Huothis have? They are a very poor people with practically, no real infrastructure. a couple of very small ports, very few power stations, they don't have any significant manufacturing.

So is yours, your ignorance is hilarious too. You don't know the difference between Guerilla and Conventional. This is about conventional, we are talking about how quickly can the US destroy military infrastructure. In all the wars you think of, Iraq and Afghanistan, the US dominated conventionally and totally destroyed the military infrastructure very quickly. Saddam's army was destroyed despite being the most powerful in the mid-east and one of the strongest in the world, it was the nation-building that failed.

How many soldiers do our enemies have on US and UK soil? Our borders have been open for years. There could be thousands just waiting for weapons and orders. If I was Iran I would want to make sure that any major conflict in the middle east plays out in the west as well. Naive to think our enemies wouldn't take advantage of our glaring weakness. Bears thinking about.

Open US border with thousands Chinese males who are probably soldiers entering our country using the trojan horse approach. They aren't here for benefits that's for sure and we probably didn't see it coming. Lots of spies. Who knows.

North korea is watching 👀

[@EnigmaHood]

If you could, you would have. You can't. The Houthis have an extensive tunnel network which is immune to bombardment. Surface bombing is ineffective against an enemy that is entrenched in underground tunnels. Not only that, the Houthi have anti-air capability, so any airstrikes would not only be ineffective, but risk being shot down. The Houthis have been assisting the Palestinians in their struggle against genocide which is being carried out by Israel. Their demands are reasonable, let humanitarian aid into Gaza. America and its allies can not lift the Houthi blockade of the Red Sea.

[@ML-bu3lz]

Oh yes because tunnel networks worked SO well for Hamas 😂😂😂
