      I was curious why Egypt and Hamas are enemies, apparently the military government of Egypt is constantly fighting religious factions, so helping a religious faction in the neighboring territory, or even letting them immigrate through refugees, would be destabilizing to the Egyptian government. Therefore it’s not tenable

      While I can’t and won’t defend Egypt’s role in the blockade, I’ll say that Israel actively bombed the Rafah crossing, so even if Egypt was going to do that it’s impossible now.

    Putin tried this in Ukraine but failed mostly due to scope and western support.

    Gaza residents are so fucked, it aint even funny as west cutting foods and supplies because some young bucks got tired of being fucked so they went all degenerate jihad. 2 million people will have to pay the price, they agreed to this or not. This is done by a recognized nation state against stateless people. Take notes, other stateless people, how nobody will do shit for you once you been subjugated like this. Got to fight early and fight hard, otherwise, you will be exterminated over a few generations. Trying to find this late into genocide is mostly futile attempt and PR.

    “Beheaded babies” gave Israel blank check for reprisals and western media enabled it via fake news spreading without proper journalism being done.

    how such thing was able to spread just in right time for Israel so well?

      Almost 70% of Gaza residents support armed attacks on Israeli civilians. There are clearly people who do not support cutting the heads off babies, and I sympathise with them. However they have had decades to leave. They have chosen to remain living shoulder to shoulder with monsters. As for the majority of Palestinians who support murdering and mutilating babies, they deserve to die.

          The Egyptian border has been open for decades (with intermittent closures, such as right now). They do not require permission from Israel to leave. I encourage you to read up about this on Wikipedia, and review the geography on Google Maps.

              At least you could read the source you cite.

              Facing mounting international calls to ease or lift their blockade in response to the Gaza flotilla raid, Egypt and Israel lessened the restrictions starting in June 2010. Israel announced that it will allow all strictly civilian goods into Gaza while preventing weapons and what it designates as “dual-use” items from entering Gaza.[100] Egypt partly opened the Rafah border crossing from Egypt to Gaza, primarily for people, but not for supplies, to go through.

              Additionally, any Gazan my leave by ship at any time.

          Most of their parents are either terrorists or support terrorists. They’re currently using their own children as human shields. What do you propose we do about that? Forcibly remove the children from Gaza? I’m sure terrorists sympathisers like you would be perfectly happy with that plan.

          Almost anywhere. Most countries permit Palestinians requesting asylum. 100+ countries by my last count allow Palestinians to immigrate.

          Should they be forced to abandon their homes and their families because most of their countrymen are fed up with living in a ghetto and chose to fight back?

          No one is forcing them. I’m explaining that if they like living with terrorists, I don’t have much sympathy for them. People often proclaim that if there is a Nazi at the table, and 10 other people are sitting there talking to them, there are 11 Nazis at the table. I feel the same way about this. As for “fighting back,” are you really arguing that “fighting back” is cutting the heads off babies? You fit right in at that table of Nazis.

          Well, I mean, they could stop cutting the heads off babies. That would be a good start, right? Maybe then they could enter peace agreements instead of starting wars, which they’ve done repeatedly for 70 years.

          I also feel the need to provide a history lesson, because Palestinians are not natives. Certainly no more than the Israelis are.

          Before Israel, there was a British mandate, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the British Mandate, there was the Ottoman Empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Ottoman Empire, there was the Islamic state of the Mamluks of Egypt, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Islamic state of the Mamluks of Egypt, there was the Ayubid Arab-Kurdish Empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Ayubid Empire, there was the Frankish and Christian Kingdom of Jerusalem, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Kingdom of Jerusalem, there was the Umayyad and Fatimid empires, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Umayyad and Fatimid empires, there was the Byzantine empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Byzantine Empire, there were the Sassanids, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Sassanid Empire, there was the Byzantine Empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Byzantine Empire, there was the Roman Empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Roman Empire, there was the Hasmonean state, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Hasmonean state, there was the Seleucid, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Seleucid empire, there was the empire of Alexander the Great, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the empire of Alexander the Great, there was the Persian empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Persian Empire, there was the Babylonian Empire, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Babylonian Empire, there were the Kingdoms of Israel and Judah, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the Kingdoms of Israel and Judah, there was the Kingdom of Israel, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the kingdom of Israel, there was the theocracy of the twelve tribes of Israel, not a Palestinian state.

          Before the theocracy of the twelve tribes of Israel, there was an agglomeration of independent Canaanite city-kingdoms, not a Palestinian state.

          Actually, in this piece of land there has been everything, EXCEPT A PALESTINIAN STATE.

          Dates:

          1937: Arabs reject the Peel Commission to create a Jewish and Arab state.

          1947: Arabs reject the UN partition plan to create a Jewish and Arab state. Wage war against the new nation of Israel. Lose more land than the partition gave them.

          1967: Israel wins yet another war against its Arab neighbors, conquering Gaza, the West Bank and Sinai in a defensive war. The Arab League declares the “three no’s”: No peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with Israel. Israel voluntarily hands control of the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism back to the Islamic Waqf, and made it illegal for Jews to pray there.

          1979: Israel voluntarily hands the Sinai back to Egypt, returning land conquered in a defensive war.

          1993: Israel recognizes the sovereignty of the Palestinian Authority over the West Bank and Gaza Strip in the Oslo Accords. Yasser Arafat uses it to support terrorism.

          2000: Israel offers Yasser Arafat recognition of a Palestinian state in all of Gaza and 94% of the West Bank with East Jerusalem as its Capital. Arafat rejects it and launches the Second Intifada.

          2005: Israel pulls out of the Gaza Strip, dismantles all its settlements, and forces Jews to leave their homes.

          2006: The Palestinian people DEMOCRATICALLY votes hamas into power as its governing body

          2008: Israel offers Mahmoud Abbas once again recognition of a Palestinian state in all of Gaza and 94% of the West Bank with East Jerusalem as its Capital and even offered to dismantle all their settlements. And once again, the Palestinians reject it.

          2010-2021: Hamas launches periodic rocket attacks against the state of Israel and builds terror tunnels in order to kidnap and murder Jews while using the people of Gaza as human shields against the IDF.

          2023: Hamas commits the worst act of mass murder against Jews since the Holocaust.

                Selective choice of facts speaks for itself dawg.

                Israel is colonizing in the way the US did.

                I got no sides in this game besides the fact that Israel is colonist state and support for such behavior is only promotes this behavior.

                Within a generation western support will flip… So Israel better finish off the job now or it will be a different Geo political situation for the once Gen Z comes of age.

                  The Jerusalem Post can now confirm based on verified photos of the bodies that the reports of babies being burnt and decapitated in Hamas’s assault on Kfar Aza are correct.

                  The photos were shown to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during his visit to Israel by the Public Diplomacy Directorate in the Prime Minister’s Office.

                  It happened. Are you willing to amend your position now?

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The power plant’s shutdown comes two days after the Israeli government said it would order a “complete siege” of the Palestinian enclave, closing off access to electricity, food, fuel and water in response to the surprise attack launched by Hamas on Israel that killed at least 1,200 people.

    The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) says it is targeting Hamas terrorists, but the dense population of Gaza – 2 million people living in 140 square miles – means that civilians are often caught in the crossfire.

    Further Palestinian casualties are feared as Israel maintains its bombardment for a fifth day and the “complete siege” ordered by Gallant on Monday takes effect.

    “These risks (are) seriously compounding the already dire human rights and humanitarian situation in Gaza, including the capacity of medical facilities to operate, especially in light of the increasing number of injured people,” spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani said Tuesday.

    Officials with the UN’s Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) said 11 of its employees had died as a result of airstrikes on Gaza and at least 14 of their facilities there have been damaged directly or indirectly.

    The only border crossing between Gaza and Egypt was struck by Israeli warplanes Tuesday, the spokesperson for the Palestinian Interior Ministry Eyad al-Bozom said.

    I think it’s important to point out that Hamas is STILL launching rockets into Israel. These rockets need fuel, this is fuel that they could’ve used to help civilians… Maybe terrorist organization only care about committing terrorist acts after all.
