so all of this, which is ridiculous but lets humor it and act like its true, excuses the stunt hamas pulled a week and a half ago?


Nothing and everything at the same time, they consider themselves freedom fighters trying to rid their country of invaders.

I think it was stupid as they have about 0% chance of success and are just getting folks killed but I am able to understand their motives whether I agree with them or not.

Israelis want a Jewish homeland, Palestinians want their land back as it was not Britain's to give and the world spins round and round.

Like I said earlier today, you need to sit this one out.

You have no idea about the history of this region and you think the Palestinians are somewhat justified in all of this.

Go educate yourself.

Your daily reminder of what Hamas did. (Very graphic video, be warned)

I'm not, nor will I ever be, in the mindset of trying to understand "people" like that.

It was never their's to get back. This region was always a backwater, and it's population subjugated to an empire. Whether it's Babylon, Assyria,Jews, Persia, Greeks, Egyptian, Roman's, Crusaders, Ottomans, France, UK....

Palestinians are trash incapable of self rule. That's why no Arab country wants anything to do with them.

So tomorrow Hawaiians wake up and start murdering Americans living in Hawaii your reaction will be "yeah I get it"

Native Americans grab your daughter and wife you will understand where they are coming from?

How do you figure? Britain took Gaza from the Turks in the 3rd Battle of Gaza during WWI. The modern issues do stem from Britain promising it to both the Jews and Bedouins in exchange for them helping defeat the Turks but Britain did control the land.

Palestine has never been a country. It’s not their lane and never has been. And Britain had control of that land when they gave it to the Jews to form Israel. You have a very simplistic (and wrong) view of this issue.

Seriously, are there people really this stupid? Do yourself a favor WhereisAtlanta and stop watching CNN and read a damn history book from a reputable scholar.

That ship sailed a hundred years ago, and the return leg was cancelled by multiple wars where Israel's neighbors tried and failed to take it back.

It's become clear to me that for this conflict to end, either the Palestinians simply become Israeli citizens, they get relocated, or the fight to the death. They don't want their own state because they will never accept Israel on what they see as their land.
