I am not anti Israeli, contrary to most on here I have even visited the country twice. My comparison was not with Nazi Germany but about the cause of a war. I didn't even mention Germany or Nazis. You're attempting to make it about something it is not, which tends to happen here. Morch understood.

No. That's what started it, not what caused it. Just like WW2 wasn't caused by the German invasion of Poland. It did start it though.

You said "This is a thread is about a war which was caused by Palestinians' attacking unarmed civilians . ". We're talking about a war, the cause of which can be debated .

The cause can be debated with good arguments for both sides.

That's because the post concerning this omitted something.

You make a claim about many people being taken away. When questioned you tell others to do more reading. Looking forward to your information about all the people taken to different countries.

3 points in this post, all not true.

Both sides seem to be very low on self reflection.

Silliest answer in a long time.

So you're saying Israel knew about the rocket pile, 7000+ according to Hamas, and did nothing about it. I find that hard to believe. Massive failure of Israeli intelligence here.

Again nonsense.

Nonsense. Israel's continuous expansion was not negotiated but opposed by nearly the whole world.

Don't know. From their perspective, first their land was taken, the international community does nothing, Israel is suppressing them, the international community does nothing, and now their Arab friends are also suppressing them and leaving them alone.

How is it possible that the highly praised Israeli intelligence agencies missed this? How can Hamas have build up such an arsenal in the completely controlled Gaza strip?

True.

They probably feel they have nothing to lose.

Agree, but I don't think this is a laughing matter.

Sorry, not falling for your baiting.

The times have changed. In the present context that is a very one sided opinion.

What is spooky? She was lying, he fell sick.

Next thing one of his defenders will come and ask why there is no conviction yet.

Among wealthy nations, the United States in recent decades went from the middle of the pack to being an outlier. And it continues to fall further and further behind.

Please know your stuff before making comments.

Extremely unlikely. More likely you did catch it but didn't get sick due to a healthy lifestyle and diet
