I agree that this war should end. It doesn’t simply end, if Israel stops military operations though.

Yes, there’s also discrimination inside Israel and it needs to end. This doesn’t change anything I said before.

The League of Nations created a mandate for the foundation of a state for the Jews in the Levante. So there’s a basis in international law for it.

Most of the land on which Israel was founded in 1948 was state owned land and land owned by Jews they had purchased.

No Palestinian would have lost their land, if the partition plan would have been accepted. Instead they chose war and lost it.

Prior to 1900 the land was only sparsely populated in the first place.

More than 800,000 Jews were expelled from Arab and Muslim countries in the region and had to flee to Israel. It was a population exchange like India and Pakistan around the same time.

Several ethnicities live in Israel and have the same citizenship and rights. Israel is the state for the Jews, just like Poland for Polish, Spain for Spanish, and so on. All of these have minorities living in them as well.

You don’t seem to have a good understanding of nation, state, ethnicity, and their relationships.

That article refers to Palestinians without Israeli citizenship in the West Bank and Gaza. I was not talking about them.

Parents, who are also combatants in terrorist militias, have a duty to not endanger their children by handing them tactical communications equipment.

This is primarily a call to learn about the history of the conflict.

Palestinian political strategy and tactics have been moderately successful at best, IMHO. It’s worth knowing about them and their history. Black September and the role of Palestinian groups in the Lebanese civil war are also worth learning about to better understand the current situation.

What a novel revelation!

 

What do you think?

 

A US-based aid group admitted Friday that a group of individuals — who the Israeli military says were armed — took control of an aid convoy in the southern Gaza Strip the day before, without the organization having vetted them or coordinated the matter with the Israel Defense Forces.

The military said Thursday that it struck the gunmen, killing them while not harming aid workers.

According to the IDF, Hamas operatives frequently try to hijack aid deliveries.

The IDF had said on Thursday that a convoy of aid trucks from the American Near East Refugee Aid (Anera) organization entered the southern Rafah area with Israeli coordination. It said that during the drive, it identified a group of gunmen taking over a vehicle at the front of the convoy and beginning to lead it. The IDF described the act as a hijacking attempt.

Shortly afterward, the IDF said it was able to determine that it could strike just the car with the gunmen, without harming the rest of the convoy, and so it carried out a strike, killing at least four.
