Yeah, so makes more sense to keep up the violence, what?

If you are the obviously weaker side, and you're failing to get what you want through violence - perhaps a better choice would be to explore other options, rather than doing the same old.

What options would that be ? Negotiate with someone who wants to see you dead ?

it would be nice to get unbiased reporting on what is happening along with extra security, etc...  but what countries could provide this under a UN mandate ?  most are already biased one way or the other so could still have a problem on the 'truth/who started what/when'.  and i doubt many countries will sign up to send their troops in.  it could potentially be a permanent assignment !!!

I am sure that it will be possible to establish a peace force that is not biased and objective documentation about what really happens over there is badly needed .

You really are a simple mind ... she is dead , shot . that's a fact . may be she did not raise her hands , may be she was not running .. she just was a young woman not a threat to the Israelis who brutally murdered her .

That is fact . Alll you suppositions are completly worthless , you just try to find excuses , boring ...

An international peace force is a very good idea , I know what that means ,  but you seem to be too arrogant ( the Israeli style ) to understand ... So , tell me about your 'reasoning ' I am curious to know ...

Where I come from we have a word for people like you , but I will not be allowed to post that here ...

Anyway , my dear , the facts talk a very clear language , even if you not seem to be able to understand ...

 

I haven't argued that she wasn't dead. Or that she wasn't shot by the IDF.

That doesn't mean I have to embrace either the account presented in the OP or the narrative you push.

 

You may thing that an "international peace force" is a "very good idea" - yet no explanation as to why. Same goes when it comes to the "how" of it.

 

Not interested in your petty insults.

That is how you present things. Doesn't have a whole lot to do with reality. If one doesn't negotiate with enemies, who then? And if you wish to imply negotiations are impossible - what's the answer then? More futile, pointless violence?

if you are so sure, can you give some names of the countries or the region ?  i don't see any european troops moving in.  i would think forces from the arab nations would not work too well.  obviously the US wouldn't be appropriate.  maybe asia/china ?

Arrogance at it's best ... It is not my job here to discuss what countries could participate in an UN peace force , I am sure that can be established , even you will not like it ..

 

Arrogance would be to claim to be "sure" something of this magnitude can be achieved, without actually bothering to address how.

hey, can't say anything bad about the Jews...…..

Pathetic.

Although you are quite welcome to say anything bad about Israel and Israelis .

Most Jews are not Israeli , so, it would be quite unfair to critisise Jews , when referring to Israelis

No words were "put in your mouth". I pointed out that your comment was how you present things - and that it is not necessarily much to do with reality. In reality, Israelis and Palestinians did negotiate, and despite a whole lot of things there is a level of cooperation between the sides.

 

Such negotiations are usually carried out between rivals sides, enemies, whatever. That's how it works.

What would a peace force do ?

Would a peace force stop the Palestinians from attacking the fence and if so, how?

    How would a peace force keep the peace ?

as noted below, the whole concept began with this conflict (albeit with some different players than today). 

 

The United Nations Peacekeeping began in 1948. Its first mission was in the Middle East to observe and maintain the ceasefire during the 1948 Arab–Israeli War.

No , probably not , but a PF would deliver unbiased documentation about what's happening .

Again : It is time to have objectivly reported what happens over there , too many lies , If you want to know details , ask Erdogan who originally made that proposition ...

Not my job here to discuss details with somebody who does not seem to be able to understand

 

In short, you have no real clue, just think it would be a "very good idea", and you are "sure" it could be carried out. Doubt Erdogan is either an authority on the matter or that he could be called "objective".

maybe the russians can do it.  i believe they supplied the arms/equipment that the israeli's used back in 1948.  maybe israel still gives them some credit for that.  iran and russia are somewhat friendly so that might be okay for the palestinians.  whoever does do it, has to be tough, can't walk away after one of their's dies.  china and russia might fit that bill.

Russia was reluctant about committing troops to monitor supposed safe-zones in Syria. I don't know that they are up to getting involved in yet another quagmire. As for them being trusted by Israel - very doubtful. There's a sort of functional understanding and coordination, but trust isn't part of it.

 

As for the Palestinians - which leadership would sign up for this? And which would be held accountable? The Fatah controlled PA or the Hamas? 

 

A UN mission which will focus on keeping the peace, without dealing with other aspects (such as arms smuggling and productions) would simply be setting the stage for the next round.

Where would  the Iranian/Chinese/Russians set up camp ?

Israelis on one side . Palestinians on the other , with Iranians/Russians and Chinese in between , I cannot envisage them all living happily ever after , it would probably cause the outbreak of WW3

russia may have one too many quaqmire's on their plate right now, that is true.  i was thinking iran could convince hamas on russia but that does leave a few loose ends.  trust is such a difficult thing.

they'd have to shoot them.  if not willing, then they'd have to duck down to allow the IDF to open fire.  just being honest, not sarcastic.

if the Israelis would achieve all their goals , what would the world look like ?

sorry to jump in here but i think israel has achieved all of their goals.  that is a big part of the reason there is no real discussion on peace.  israel has what it wants already.  so the world would look as it is today.

i think egypt and jordan are totally fine with israel.  lebanon and syria are sidelined.  iran's quest for nuclear arms is one problem for israel.  that is one goal they have not achieved.

Hamas has achieved its aim - stir up the people and cause deaths - and then use those deaths to push their cause - the destruction of Israel and the death of all Jews inside it.  

The death of a medic has given them exactly what they wanted - a high profile situation that gives them the appearance of being in the right.

Tragic is it is, I very much doubt that an Israel soldier deliberately shot her as she was running to help someone with her arms in the air. 

Whatever the Hamas "health officials" say is extremely likely to be false.  More likely is that it was a ricochet or a shot that went astray.

This whole thing has been goping on for many weeks now - and Israel is only defending its borders from terrorists.

Hamas are proven terrorists who will do anyuthing to advance their cause.

This is a detailed list of Palestinian rocket and mortar attacks on Israel in 2017. All of the attacks originated in the Gaza Strip, unless stated otherwise. This list does not include reports of deaths and injuries caused by Palestinian rocket and mortar attacks that fell within Gaza.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Palestinian_rocket_attacks_on_Israel,_2017

On May 29 this year, coinciding with all the Hamas plannned protests and attacks,  there were 70 rockets and mortars fired at Israel.

 

Check this out for some of the truth behind the protests - it is all about getting the western media and gullible people to support them (and it is working).

Where is your evidence for this? Do you want the Palestinians to just give in, lay down and die? They are different to you and have every right to protest and resist!

Where is your evidence to support the  claim that she was a nurse because she was not a nurse. Putting on a white coat does not make someone a nurse. 

Razan al-Najjar, 21, a volunteer with the Gaza health ministry, was fatally shot in the chest near Khan Younis on Friday, Palestinian officials said.

as reported by AFP.

In Gaza, nurses work for either an approved foreign NGOs or the Gaza Health Ministry. There is no such thing as a volunteer nurse. If they are a nurse they have to work through one of the registered nursing entities. Do you know why? Aside from the typical Arab bureaucracy it is because Hamas claims that  health workers can be foreign spies and that is why they are not allowed to work outside of Hamas supervised entities.

 

According to the actual press release;

Razan al-Najjar, 21, a volunteer with the Gaza health ministry, was fatally shot in the chest near Khan Younis on Friday, Palestinian officials said. This does not make her a qualified medical person, let alone a nurse. 

 

I like this quote from her relative as he  attempts to paint her in a positive light;

Najjar was less than 100 yards from the border fence, treating a man who been struck by a tear gas canister, when she was shot, according a relative, Ibrahim al-Najjar, who was there and who said he carried her to an ambulance.

“I told her it was dangerous to approach [the fence] but she answered that she was not afraid to die and wanted to help the young man,” a fellow medic told Gaza reporters, according to Haaretz.

 

Gee, let's all go attack the Israeli border and then complain when we are injured. Brilliant. Just another  attacker who got too close to the violent confrontation and paid with her life.
