10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Too late?
Yes, imho it’s too late to solve this normally without many deaths. The hatefulness between these 2 groups of people is just way too horrible
Sure if you skew the definition of occupy enough, or can't distinguish between Gaza and the West Bank, because all you know is propaganda.
Go look at a map of the UN borders. Then look at a map of where Israeli troops are
Now come back here and say that again with a straight face.
Do you think we will hear back from them?
Doubt it.
You're not even in the conversation, what are you trying to contribute, more hate?
Okay I will. Israel pulled out of Gaza to let them have their independence and self govern, they elected a terrorist organization to run the place. Israel has not governed Gaza since then, nor has is occupied the territory. If you want to spread misinformation, at least pick something you know anything about.
This is only true under a definition that is entirely biased towards Israel. Israel funded the elections in question, which were held over 18 years ago (long enough to where the average Palestinian *wasn't even born yet much less had the right or ability to vote), and controls all food, water, supplies, utilities, and ingress/egress into the area. That is not "let[ting] them have their independence and self-govern".
Delusional.
Isreal doesn't recognize Palestine as a state. They say they are in charge of it.
You can't even tell the difference between West Bank and Gaza, just grouping them into Palestine. Seriously, go educate yourself before regurgitating propaganda.
Israel literally controls everything. That's how they cut water and electricity.
They don't control it, they're providing it free of charge.
No they're not. They cut it off.
They stopped providing these services free of charge to the enemy when the war started.
Having water and electricity is a human right.
The fact that Israel control it is a crime.
You're confusing Hamas which ripped out the water lines to make rockets, and used funds and supplies for a desalination plant to make terror tunnels, with Israel. Which graciously providing Gaza, which is not part of, nor governed by Israel, with water.
Edit: here is an example you might be able to understand. Your neighbor comes over asking to use the shower because their water line burst due to them spending their money on hookers instead of fixing it. While they're over, they shoot your dog. Will you let them in again to use your water?
Here's the actual example you might be able yo understand. An occupier invades your home, kills your family, an occupies your home. When you fight for your home, they kill more of your family.
By any chance, do you happen to have supported the Iraq war?
Do you but any chance support terrorist organizations? It sounds like you do.
I condemn Hamas. They are the source of all problems.
Now, why are people in the west bank, where Hamas doesn't exist, are getting killed?
Israel already controls every aspect of life in Gaza. They ration how much food and water they allow in, to keep them near starvation.
The ration how many weapons are smuggled in and how much aid Hamas can build rockets out of. Hamas rations out the starvation.
Why are you just making shit up?
