Very disappointing. As an expert guesser, please guess for me the next winning lottery number. 

Let me have a wild guess at the content and you tell me how close I am .

  A person claims to have a Jewish background and connections to the Holocaust, states that it must never happen again and the same thing is now happening in Israel and it must be stopped?

   I haven't watched the video , how close was I to guessing  the content ?

The ongoing collective punishment or ethnic cleansing is valid for some 2.200.000 Gazans.

2.200 Palestinians died of which 600 children with no connection to Hamas attacks.

 

Let's not forget that the Hamas Attack was done with some 1.500 militants.

Indeed, I've said from the start that Israel are out of order. Sadly, a few here called me and Antisemite for saying so.

Back on topic....

 

Reports on Arab media (will link if and when an ok English version pops) say there's already an Israeli delegation in Egypt, for talks regarding the situation. This includes ways to open the Egyptian border for supplies and humanitarian aid, allowing foreign national out - while stopping Hamas leaders from escaping.

 

As an aside it was also reported there's heavy pressure by the US for the swift release of Americans - and there might be something in the works (this was on various outlets, but nothing credible yet) - maybe part of the same talks as above.

 

Hope some understanding will be reached.

Considering that Hamas also controls the Gaza side of the Rafah border crossing into Egypt its not looking good.

I'm not sure Hamas currently controls anything much, other than it's bunkers and whatnot. Seems like chaos reigns down there. How could they effectively control it anyway? If they'd show up in force, they'll be targeted by the IAF.

 

This goes back to comments made earlier, about them not having set provision for this emergency (as usual), at the expense of their own people (plus foreigners).

As you are agreeing with the poster's claim of ethnic cleansing:

 

There is NO ethnic cleansing, there is NO carpet bombing of Gaza. If you want ethnic cleansing, look to your friends Iran, Hamas, and others who deny the Jewish state's right to exist. 

 

Follow the logic for one minute.

It was actually 2600 Hamas militants that took part in the invasion of Israel and many of those went back to Gaza with their 150 hostages .

  Israel is warring with Hamas and attempting to solve the hostage issue , its not collective punishment or ethnic cleansing

IDF says Hamas is preventing civilians from evacuating northern Gaza

“We see an active effort by Hamas to block and prevent the population from going south. Hamas wants to show the world that it has casualties and dead,” IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari says in a press conference.

“We continue to urge the residents of Gaza City, go south… Hamas wants you as human shields… This is for your personal safety,” Hagari adds. “We are going to attack very widely in Gaza City in the near future.”

That statement is not attributed to any official or gov dept? I wonder where they got it from, not seen it reported in any other press either.

Most people that understand the meaning of the word “start” believe that the start was on Saturday 7th October when Hamas embarked on a rampage of unprecedented, barbaric, civilian slaughter; the fact that you think Israel were out of order from the start, firmly nails your colours to the mast.

 

Maybe it’s because you continue to make such statements, that you feel obliged every so often to tell everyone that you are not antisemitic; well, you know what the say about people that are always telling everyone that they are not something  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The Jewish Press is the largest independent weekly Jewish newspaper in the United States. The paper, founded by Rabbi Sholom Klass (1916-2000) and Mr. Raphael Schreiber (1885-1980), debuted as a national weekly in January 1960

 

I haven't seen a single statement from any government that states they have brokered a deal to permit humanitarian aid into Gaza

By allowing the Palestinians an independent state. Then there will be no need for Hamas to exist.

 

Try it. If it doesn't work and Hamas still keeps fighting (why would they?), then there is justifiable excuse for ethnic cleansing. Until then, there is no excuse.

And? I would have thought they would have learned by now to provide a source for any claims as other credible media does.

So, what would that state look like? What would be the borders? And why would Hamas relinquish power in such a scenario?

 

Hamas will keep fighting regardless. They are a death cult which has the goal of killing every Jew in the world, starting in Israel.

Er, because it is in the founding charter of Hamas to eradicate all Jews worldwide; yes, not just the ones in Israel, so I hope that answers your question … cheers

Nothing about Israel bombing Egypt

Stop this anti-Semitic nonsense. Now you're accusing people of being anti-Semitic because they say they're not.

Do the Palestinians not already have an independent state? If not, what is stopping them?
