      @@suzyqualcast6269 "In June 2023, Israel quietly approved the development of Gaza Marine, a small offshore gas field near Gaza that will benefit both the Palestinian Authority and Hamas in terms of revenue and energy independence.
      A second possibility is that this is part of a larger Egyptian/Israeli effort to calm the political situation in Gaza between its warring factions (Hamas vs. Islamic Jihad).
      There’s also a plan to build a new harbor in Egypt to bring more goods into Gaza and help its economy."
      Are you sure you know everything going on? of course Hamas killed any chance of this happening now.

    I saw an interview with a Christian Palestinian whose family home was destroyed by IDF. Their neighbours received a letter from IDF saying their (the neighbours) house will be targeted. His family wasn't warned, but when the neighbours told them, they decided to get out of their house as well. They were standing in the street when the neighbour's house was hit. A minute later their house was hit as well. They would have died if they had not erred on the side of caution.

The truth is the majority in Israel support what IDF is doing in Gaza and about 30% think IDF is not doing enough to finish Gaza. She is quite right to believe that the only way Israel can live in a peaceful neighbourhood is to accept that their Palestinian neighbours are also human beings and should enjoy the same rights as those in Israel.

International law, conventions and pressure held him in check before October 7th, but the Hamas atrocity, and the world's backing for legitimate self-defence, has let him off his leash. He now sees the eradication of Palestinians as being within his grasp and he's going to make sure he achieves this before he's sent to prison.

    Some Israeli supporters will say, ‘oh we gave Gaza the chance for independence when Sharon dismantled the Jewish settlements in Gaza. But they voted for Hamas.’ That view ignores the fact that Gaza’s borders were completely blockaded and controlled by the Israeli government, who controlled everything going in and out of Gaza. What freedom is that? Gaza is a big concentration camp.
    Israel gets so much military support from the west in the name of ‘security’, but what about the security of the Palestinian people, who have had their lands stolen and homes demolished by Israeli government and settlers. There are so many political prisoners, held withou trial.

    For want of a better word, Hamas hostage takers are still hostage guardians whose duties are to keep them alive as a bargaining chip.
    More evidence the hostages are not Netanyahu's top priority when his military have killed almost 200 aid workers and even today shot a lone unarmed man attempting to pick up airdropped aid.

    Israel is happy that aid providers are leaving.This is their plan. The lies and dismissals are getting ridiculous. US and Israel are isolating themselves!

    43:16 not only is Michael’s analogy incredibly inapt but his own point that Israel was just “clumsy” is inexcusable. We’re talking about innocent lives and the IDF is just “clumsy”. 🤬

      “Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,” Netanyahu told his Likud party’s Knesset members in March 2019. “This is part of our strategy"

      @@jjohn408 yip, which is why he was in Qatar three month prior to October 7th.
      Qatar funds Hamas(either through aid or whatever) and Nethanyahu literally went there and asked them to CONTINUE to provide aid to Hamas.

    Israel is often referred to as the only democracy in the Middle East. However like its undemocratic neighbors, it doesn’t recognise international law.
    We need to make that distinction when talking about Israel.

    The first caller’s comment that Israel is losing its 60 years of goodwill is laughable.
    It was just not publicly known what horrors the Palestinians were going through in the pre social media age. If we were still in that age, this carnage would be a blimp in the news cycle.

    Sophia (I hope I'm spelling that correctly),
    Your unwavering convictions are a rare thing. Mohammad Ali didn't shake up the world the world through boxing talent alone. I've always so admired his convictions, too, and you're doing the same thing. The world is a brighter place with you in it.
