And let us remember you are a Satan worshipper.
I said what I said. You don’t need to try and read between the lines.
Surely not? So he’s catholic/christian?
He’s a Muslim. How many Jews did Jesus kill? How many did Muhammad kill? Let’s expand that to how many people did Jesus kill vs Muhammad. The twisted, sick irony is that Islam calls itself the religion of peace yet their prophet was anything but peaceful.
Yep. And Israel’s constant bombings/operations (w/associated collateral damage) just reinforce the idea of “Israel evil” to the Gaza/Palestinian populace… which in turn creates more easy recruits for Hamas. It’s a positive feedback loop right now, that serves Hamas and not Israel.
Cutting the grass, playing whack-a-mole, whatever you want to call it works for Israel in the short term, but it also ensures that the grass grows back and and the moles keep popping up. A new strategy is needed, and it needs to prioritize long term stability over short term safety, IMO. It needs to undermine the hamas messaging, and the strategy needs to be sustained for a generation or more in order for it to work. And yes I realize that is easier said than done for a variety of reasons.
You mean undermine Islam. Good luck.

Perhaps. But I refuse to believe there isn’t a path towards a better future for both. Whether its finding a big enough carrot, or finding a common unifying enemy, or having a 3rd party step in at the right time/place.
What is going on now is bad for everyone involved. Even Hamas leadership who may be rich, but is hunted by mossad.
It isn’t. It’s exactly how the Palestinians want it to be.
The only solution that I see is starving the hand that feeds Hamas with weapons.

Hezbollah gets a healthy amount of hardware support from Iran, but it seems like Hamas is getting minimal support- small arms and unguided rockets (launchers having to be mcguyvered sometimes).
Starving Iran seems like it would affect the houthis and Hezbollah far more than Hamas?
More so, maybe. But the rockets and munitions are not mined within Gaza. They are getting them and/or the necessary materials from somewhere outside Gaza. We should use our Intelligence to determine where and starve them.
I think it had more to do with an Israeli plan to double it’s population in four years, which was itself a part of a larger plan to increase its population by a million.
Between 1948 and 1951, 260000 Jews immigrated to Israel from Arab countries.[5] In response, the Israeli government implemented policies to accommodate 600000 immigrants over a period of four years, doubling the country’s Jewish population.[6] This move encountered mixed reactions in the Knesset; in addition to some Israeli officials, there were those within the Jewish Agency who opposed promoting a large-scale emigration movement among Jews whose lives were not in immediate danger.[6]
When I highlight it, the book reference 6 also adds
Hakohen, Devorah (2003). Immigrants in Turmoil: Mass Immigration to Israel and Its Repercussions in the 1950s and After . Syracuse University Press. p. 46. ISBN 978-0-8156-2969-6. After independence, the government presented the Knesset with a plan to double the Jewish population within four years. This meant bringing in 600000 immigrants in a four-year period. or 150000 per year. Absorbing 150000 newcomers annually under the trying conditions facing the new state was a heavy burden indeed. Opponents in the Jewish Agency and the government of mass immigration argued that there was no justification for organizing large-scale emigration among Jews whose lives were not in danger, particularly when the desire and motivation were not their own.
Any idea what that last part could be referring to? Particularly when the desire and motivation were not their own?
The large scale immigration in the first few years after Israel’s declaration was the product of this policy change in favour of mass immigration focused on Jews from Arab and Muslim countries.[10]
I’m no expert. Some basic digging around on Wikipedia would bring one far away from the words of yours which I’ve quoted
The Jewish Agency for Israel (Hebrew: הסוכנות היהודית לארץ ישראל, romanized: HaSochnut HaYehudit L’Eretz Yisra’el), formerly known as the Jewish Agency for Palestine ,[5] is the largest Jewish non-profit organization in the world. It was established in 1929 as the operative branch of the World Zionist Organization (WZO).[6]
Formerly known as the Jewish Agency for Palestine. I wonder when they changed their name. I wonder why.
I didn’t
No, I do remember you quoting a number but I thought it was somewhere between 11-19%
No, your lies will be forgotten
Because, if you had read what you posted, it was established in 1929. At that time you had Palestinian Jews as well as Arabs.
Maybe. Unfortunately the lies of your false prophet won’t be forgotten soon enough.
Interesting
Palestinian Jews as well as Palestinian Arabs. So… Palestinian … people…
You are not honest enough to sincerely make that claim.
By the way, the intent behind changing the name is not the same as the intent in naming it a particular way in the first place. Thank you.
Well, your propensity to try and find something nefarious in everything reflects your own duplicitous nature.
