Given how Iran actively funds the rockets that are being launched from residential rooftops in Gaza, and how Qatar is casually financing the lavish lifestyles of the Hamas leaders living in Qatar (enjoying paradise on earth while they convince their jihadists of committing terror in the hopes of entering paradise after death), I don't think it would be a problem for them to also spare some money for the reconstruction, right?
Iran's oil revenue should be seized and their money in foreign banks should be frozen until we arrive at the reconstruction process, assuming the war even ends, so that the frozen assets pay for that, both for Gaza and Israel.
Can I remind you that the US has already had a hand in replacing the leadership once and how that turned out.
The US and BP - lest we forget that even back then, it was all about oil.
Fair point. Perhaps you know who was the major player. I really can't tell which one: BP or The United States? So difficult to tell.
That's besides the point, my comment didn't exclude any other financing, feel free to argue for others also chipping in. Now, why would you be opposed to forcing Iran to pay for their sponsoring of terrorism? Why do you believe Iran shouldn't pay?
I'm not.
I'm against the US interfering militarily covertly or otherwise in matters because it usually ends up creating more of a mess than it was before.
Is Israel going to pay even more for funding hamas and helping to ~~create~~ support them in the first place?
That's a conspiracy theory. I spent 30 minutes searching and found no evidence Israel ever materially supported Hamas. At most they tolerated and maybe encouraged them as a counterweight to Fatah.
I found one where they controlled the purse strings and talked about how keeping Hamas helped them keep Palestine down.
I'll give you opinion but not conspiracy theory
Let me make this plain for you.
Support innocents on both sides.
Fuck Hamas and Israel both for their actions against innocents.
Now will you say the same or try to call me antisemitic again?
I might he wrong, about them supporting Hamas but I doubt Israeli newspapers would lie about about Netanyahu supporting Hamas and funding them years ago.
I believe it was a times of Israel article but i will see if i can find and link it
Don't evade the "and create them in the first place" that you put out there.
