You take Trump out of the equation, there's no putting down America, and the same can be said for most any country. It's leader's mistakes have given them reputations. he fact that all countries have thousands of citizens living there have many reasons why. besides North Sentinel Island of course.

Not because of racism as you try to insinuate but to put pressure on the regime to change their policy towards their neighbors.

You seem to have made your mind up....... but I doubt we would be in this shameful mess if not for the Hamas brutal attacks in October 2023. In this topic, the victim is Israeli.

The sentiment on here was much different. Then reality came out.

The Israeli language is very easy to identity and so is English with an Israeli accent.

I gave you the thumb down because of your useless observation and regarding israeli accent, what did you try to say?

are you condoning such attack just because of the Israeli accent?

Attacked by Hamas actually.

Some kind of retaliation clearly was justified. The reality of what has transpired is not proportionate, nor is it sufficiently targeted at those who perpetrated the massacre on 7th October.

The civilian population of Gaza neither participated in the attack, nor deserve to be treated as they have been by the Israelis.

Wrong, many ordinary Palestinians, (it's well documented) have also took part in the raping, beheading, looting and killing and kidnaping of babies, women and children, funny how the truth gets bent and distorted when you hate someone and something you know nothing of other than reading racist, and anti-Semite articles.

One thing is very apparent in these pages and the quality of its contributors, how filled with glee many here get of any chance to show their hate, loathing and anti-Semite tendencies each time something happened to an Israeli or a jew, look at the 6 pages here, full of abhorrence, disgust and revulsion when you mention an Israeli or a jew.

Israel - included this "victim" wouldn't be attacked if they would live peaceful with their neighbours. Oppressing and bombing your neighbours will not guarantee any kind of peace.

The racist Jew hatred is always there throughout history but it erupts in cyclical waves. It's erupting big time now. "Gaza" is the current excuse along with a new and quite dangerous modern phenom of "tik tok" brainwashing especially of young people who don't know anything at all about the actual history.

Perhaps you could help me out and point me toward sources where ordinary Palestinians, not members of terrorist organizations like Hamas, participate in raping, beheading, killing children, looting and kidnapping as part of their daily routine or indeed as part of the terrible massacre perpetrated by Hamas against Israel.

Credible sources please, not conspiracy theorists.

Its improved Israel's chances of surviving long term though

Whilst there is much solidarity between Jewish people, all around the world, I can think of some Jewish families around the Bondi area of Sydney Australia who may disagree with you.

I can't help but think, if it wasn't for the atrocities and war crimes being committed by the IDF, they would still be alive today. The footage coming out of Gaza is radicalizing some to the point of doing terrorist attacks, or has increase support for the Palestinians, as can be seen with the many "Free Palestine" protests all around the world. Not to mention, several countries announcing they will recognize The State of Palestine.

Let's not forget, Netanyahu was facing a vote of no confidence and corruption charges prior to the war/s. It's in his own interests to expand and prolong the war. It's also causing a lot of political damage to Trump.

We saw similar in the Vietnam War. People in America were all for it, until they started to see footage coming out of Vietnam that was so abhorrent that they started to protest against their own government and the war.

Netanyahu has seen large protests against his government. Such protests also contained hundreds of IDF soldiers.

As far as Israel's long term survival, Hamas is still there. Hezbollah is still there. The Houthis are still there. There has been no regime change in Iran. No doubt the military capacity of all the afore mentioned has been degraded, but they can and will will rebuild, so the threat to Israel's long term survival is still there.

You can not kill an ideology.

Of the children the IDF have not killed, and there has been around 22,000 dead children to date, the surviving children will grow up with the same hate, if not more, and the fight will continue.

Netanyahu will run out of political time, so will Trump, and this will be shown in the next elections, but Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis and Iranian regime will still be there.

That is exactly my point.

The way in which Netanyahu has prosecuted the war in Gaza has dragged Jews all over the world into his personal agenda of revenging his brother's death, and halting his own corruption charges to avoid prison.

This OP is just another example.

That's the way it was, until footage of the atrocities and war crime started to leak out, now you see attacks or hate against Jews all around the world.

At the start, most people saw the war as a just war, after the October 7th attack. That support has turned into protests against Israel. The Israeli government's actions has caused this turn around.

Hamas claims ~72,000 deaths in Gaza. Of those, roughly 30,000 were terrorists, and the total includes natural deaths. Urban warfare expert John Spencer notes Israel has achieved far lower civilian-to-combatant ratios approx 1:1 than the typical 1:9 in urban fighting.

Hamas hides in tunnels, wears no uniforms, and uses civilians as shields. Many of its own rockets have killed Palestinians — including the “hospital strike” initially blamed on Israel by the BBC and others, which was actually a Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket that hit a car park and killed about ten people.

Israel has dropped millions of leaflets, made millions of calls and texts, and issued maps of safe routes before strikes. No other military matches this. If genocide were the goal, Gaza’s 2.1 million people could have been wiped out in an afternoon.

Israel also coordinated with the WHO and UNICEF for humanitarian pauses so over a million polio vaccines could reach Gazan children — the first cases in 25 years.

Yahya Sinwar was willing to see Gaza destroyed to advance Hamas’s goal of eliminating Israel, calculating that higher Palestinian deaths would turn the world against the Jewish state.

You can hate Israel and Jews but the facts remain: a country of 9 million (including 2 million Arab citizens plus other minorities) facing a movement whose charter calls for its destruction.

So anyone that says Israel's actions were wrong, what would you do if your country was attacked by 3000 terrorists and 2500 civilians where 1200 people were murdered, raped, mutilated, tortured, burnt alive and 251 were kidnapped back into Gaza?

AI quotes 7k Hamas, not 30k even if 23k just dropped dead! Do you really believe Israel waged 'urban combat'. Naw, they just blew the place up until there was no place to hide, for civilians who were targets or Hamas militants.

"Safe routes" 5555. That makes civilians sitting ducks just as the food and water lines. Perhaps that was even their intent. "Wiping out" an entirepopulation would be the end of Israel.

NOBODY condones Oct 7, not Hamas & Hezbollah--get real! If you think 1,200 people warrant the destruction of a country, you're an extremist apologist.

Unlike the US, Israel doesn't bring home its dead soldiers in flag-draped coffins. That's what turned Americans against the war on Vietnam.

Chicken and egg, and always has been.

If there was a Two State Solution, perhaps they wouldn't become terrorist.

Sure, hate each other, have a wall, whatever, but occupation will just see this forever war continue for generations. Blood will continue to spill, on both sides.

I must admit, I had a chuckle at your post.

IRA - declared a ceasefire (Good Friday Agreement) and went the political route. Not defeated.

Khmer Rouge - Hun Sen was the leader in Cambodia for decades. He's ex Khmer Rouge. Fail.

Nazis - they are still out there, as white supremacist. Well documented.

Che Guevara - a man who went on to become a famous international symbol of resistance and a legend. (One persons terrorist is another persons freedom fighter)

Basque Separatist - announced a ceasefire and disbanded. They were not defeated.

Red Army Faction - chose to dissolve. They were not defeated.

Under the current circumstances, I can not see Hamas going the same way as the above, unless there is a two state solution.

Talking of dead ideology, here's a name you may recognize, Nelson Mandela, and yes, he is dead, but he left prison after serving 28 years of hard time to become the president of South Africa.

In more recent times, America's embarrassing retreat out of Afghanistan. I see on the news today was the 5 year anniversary of it. The Taliban is still there, the American military is not. Gaza will go the same way.

You can not win a land war in Asia, nor can you kill an ideology. Invading / Occupying countries will bleed out militarily, economically, and politically, every time. History shows this.

Wonder whether some Palestinians kids will be thinking to themselves that wars aren't a good thing and that it would be better to stop attacking Israel and causing endless wars ?
