The Palestinians are winning the war of public opinion, and they are beginning to be recognised, whether they will win any more than that is yet to be seen.

 

However, Israel has already lost.

On that, the old proverb goes: another victory like that and we are done for..

  • This is not about hostage safety concerns.

  • This is the only way out of this situation as Hamas will never let the hostages go as they are the only ticket to their survival. And so, with no other alternative, this is the only way out.

  • Another way out is for Israel to agree to a permanent ceasefire, the removal of all troops from Gaza, and starting talks on a two-state solution. All this would have to be enforced by third parties, b

   There wouldnt be any conflict or war if Palestine accepted Israel's right to exist .

Of course they can't win any war, without a real army. But the image of that lifeless 6 year old body being carried by his father. I can't get it out of my mind. 

 

What a horrific image to start the day with. 

 

  Why do Palestine supporters  take such an interest in Children ?

Its like Children are the only thing that exist in Gaza

Yes, but that father was not involved in that. And even less that 6 year old boy who was killed. 

 

So that's not relevant to his death.

6am, On the morning of the 7th of October 2023, thousands of Palestinians have broken the fence and stormed in, among the many Hamas terrorists, there were many, of ''ordinary Palestinians citizens'' who joined the massacre, so don't you come up with this nonsense of the father was not involved.

And you accuse others of believing propaganda.

 

Believing propaganda is not so much an accusation as an observation.  People who fall for Hamas propaganda are for the  most part gullible, not criminal.  But on top of that, we can't ignore those who always want to believe the worst about Jews,  I will make that accusation when appropriate.

 

Truth is, opponents of Israel have termed as genocide what is really the loss of life among Palestinian non-combatants in the Gaza Strip. The Gaza Strip had been a very densely and it's therefore not surprising many civilians were killed during aerial bombardment and urban warfare, especially since Hamas fighters hide among civilians.  That's tragic, but it's not genocide or war crimes.

 

In the 77 years of its existence, the state of Israel has had many opportunities to wipe out Palestinians if it had wanted to, but history gives no evidence of that happening.  The total population of the Palestinian territories- West Bank and Gaza- has increased more than five-fold since Israel's founding in 1948, a larger increase percentage-wise than than that of Israel.

And then there are two other very significant points:  1) the growth of the Palestinian Arab population has been entirely natural, i.e., Palestinians have had a whole lot of babies; and 2)  the 155,000 Arabs who remained in Israel in 1948 have grown in number to 2.1 million in 2025, again all through new babies.   The growth in Israel's population since 1948 includes the immigration of about three million Jews over the years.

 

So how can it be that Palestinians have suffering genocide or even ethnic cleansing if their population has risen so sharply?  If Israel were really interested in getting rid of Palestinians, wouldn't it have eliminated the Arabs within its own borders instead of allowing their population to increase nearly 14 times what it had been in 1948%   About 21% of Israel's population today is Arab of Palestinian descent.

I can't get the image of the body of 22-year-old Shani Louk desecrated in the back of a pick-up truck out of my mind.  She was a pacifist who had never done military service and was raped and murdered at the Nova Festival.  Her near-naked body was paraded through Gaza and Palestinian children spit on her as a final insult.

The photo on the left is the final snapshot Louk uploaded on Instagram from the festival before her death.

You make that accusation time and time again to deflect criticism of Israel.

 

Agree though, i observe you believing IDF propaganda. You're gullible, not criminal.

I've made that accusation only when 100% true.  The mods have removed several posts from AN threads because of antisemitic content, including in this thread.  It is distressing that anti-Jewish tropes appear and I sincerely thank the Admin and mods for removing them. For example in this thread:

hostile or abusive comments based on religion/ethnicity

 

Do you doubt antisemitism exists on AN and in the real world?

 

Supporting Israel  and the IDF is the opposite of gullible. Defending Israel against those who would destroy it is the best guarantee for the survival of the world's Jews, just like calling out antisemites is the best way to counter hatred of Jews.
