The Palestinians weren't defenseless they had the ability to perpetually attack Israel year after year. The only difference is that Israel had the "bigger" guns.
I have had a lot to say, the concern is that you refuse to acknowledge that the Palestinians are the ones to blame. You also seem oblivious to the growing wave of antisemitic protests occurring world wide.
Every time you attack Israel for defending itself and flatly refuse to find even the slightest bit of fault with the relentless attacks on Israeli civilians and the atrocious attack of Oct 7, you confirm our opinion of you. Israel has made mistakes. They are not entirely without fault but they are the aggrieved party. Gaza has been free for more than 20 years so the "Free Palestine" chant is just plain bullsh*t. Israel is the one whose civilians are relentlessly pelted with rockets. THOUSANDS every year. When Israel fires back they send notices to the Palestinian civilians what they are targeting so they can escape to safety. WHO does that???????????? But, sadly, there is no escape from Hamas. Hamas makes it impossible for the civilians to flee to safety. Hamas needs all the dead Palestinians they can manage whether they kill them directly, starve them, or hold them as human shields and let the Israeli's kill them. And you've bought into the lies. Hook, line, and sinker right in your mouth and they just jerk you around.
I have no claims against you. I'm not a devout Christian and don't like the bad guys, but have compassion for humanity. I kno what Hamas has done to Israel is wrong, but why wipe out all Palestinians and their homes with carpet bombing instead of sending in troops to target Hamas and relocate Palestinians to safety? Israel should allow the survivors to form a State and build housing for them. If they act up again, then invade New Palestine, annex it, and exile all Palestinians to other Arab countries.
You really need to read some actual history. For 40 years after the 6-day war when Israel acquired Gaza (that's what happens when a war ends and there is a victor and the victor was the victim of the initial attack, They get to keep the land. PERIOD.), Israel tried diligently to help the Palestinians integrate into Israeli society and become productive members along with all the Palestinians who wisely stayed in 1948 rather than abandoning their homes and businesses and becoming refugees.
So now that Hamas is no longer a threat, help the Palestinians get rid of them once and for all, and help Palestinians rebuild in New Palestine so everyone can live in peace.
Will Hamas disarm? Has not yet happened so they are still a threat.
Does this mean rebuilding solely within the existing limits of Gaza? Or is the context within the expansive term "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free". Would this include recognition by the Palestinians of the right of Israel to exist? Will this new Palestine renounce advocacy of genocide against Israel?
That is your opinion. Kinda' like that's what the Dems did in 2020. Trump won the election but somehow Biden became President. If the Palestinians had wanted to get rid of Hamas, the Israelis would gladly have helped them and this war could have ended before it ever started but the Palestinians were all on board with Hamas' promise to kill all the Jews. The Israelis are ferocious fighters because they are fighting for their very existence, they would gladly have infiltrated Gaza and killed each Hamas leader in his bed. All they needed was viable intel. Oct 7th would never have happened. The perpetual bombing of Israeli civilian targets wouldn't have been going on for almost 20 years. But the Palestinians didn't want to get rid of Hamas. They thought Hamas could win. They thought that world opinion would force the Jews to just walk into the gas chamber and die like they did for Hitler. Do some research on the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and how he was collaborating with Hitler to bring the "final solution" to the Middle East at the end of WWII. When one group of people wants another group dead and there is no middle ground, Gaza is what you get.
If they don't voluntarily disarm, then disarm them by force, but stop killing innocent Palestinians in the process. They've never voluntarily sympathized with Hamas from the get go.
That needs to be addressed in the peace deal. I would think New Palestine needs to have access to the Mediterranean Sea for commerce and leisure, so let the UN and Israel decide what's a fair area for their new State.
I never thought of all Palestinians denying Israel's right to exist and advocating genocide against them. There are many Palestinians who for decades lived in peace with Israel, worked there, lived there, shared, befriended, married Jews and Christians in Israel. You cannot say "all Palestinians" wish death to Jews, that's Hamas and Iran injecting hatred. You shouldn't generalize with any culture, there's good and bad in every culture.
Well, the UN was created to prevent conflicts between opposing parties. How did that work out?
Your claims that the UN has Hamas operatives and is on their side is ridiculously outlandish. If the UN did not disarm Hamas, then srael should do it by force, but do it right without killing Palestinians in the process.
