Israel kills Hamas fighter it holds responsible for rabbi’s murder

[MisterTee]

Actually the Palestinians started the violence back in the beginning of last century and have never stopped since. The settlements are just a convenient excuse to keep up what they have been doing all along. If it was not that. It would be something else.

That reply is just nonsense.

Can you give your opinion why Israel is encroaching on Palestinian territory in flagrant violation of international law?

[MisterTee]

When and where will their land grabs end?

.

When the Palestinians finally agree to make peace.

Why not stop the land grabs first and see how the Palestinians - and the international community - react to an Israel that is willing to live within its legitimate 1967 borders.

Peace Now, bro.

The entire conflict is all about land theft and it has not changed in 100 years.

An invasion of fanatical European Zionist immigrants with their stated intention of creating a Jewish State by dispossessing the resident Palestinian population must be considered something of a provocation.

The Palestinians have been resisting this occupation for a century. The land grabbing Rabbi in the OP and the Hamas fighter resisting him are part of this ongoing process.

Israel may be winning the war militarily, but it is losing the peace, and may end up with its Zionist dream shattered when it finds itself having to accommodate millions of Palestinians in a one state solution.

The Palestinians have refused to make peace for almost 70 years and they are the ones who started the conflict. It is up to them to make some concessions for a change. THEY are the ones living in a purgatory of making. Meanwhile, Israel is thriving.

What concessions has Israel ever made?

Israel is the mugger who offers to give back your empty wallet, provided that you stop struggling and promise not to call the cops.

After 100 years Israel does not have a secure peace either, the occupied Palestinians are not going away, and worldwide Jewry would be mad ...or fanatics as in the OP...to make aliyah. The Palestinian population is increasing, along with pressure on Israel to get serious about a viable 2 state solution, or come to terms with sharing the country in a one state soluton.
