"... as Israel says war with Hamas is 'do or die'. Is Iran's warning not akin to that of the USA (and the UK with the flippant comment 'we hope you win')? If Iran gets involved so will the USA and the UK - to what extent is anybody's guess and what countries will follow suit is also anybody's guess. Surely Israel has done enough. Too many people are dead already. We know that they can flatten Gaza and kill everything and everyone. What is needed is a step back and the negotiating table. Whilst what Hamas did was inexcusable, enough is enough. This simply cannot continue and Iran, the USA and all those waving their dicks about, need to stop." Interesting that you say that because an Israeli representative was on the kuenssberg (forgive my spelling) show this morning stating the exact opposite IE that they've been listening to the west since their inception and if they'd done things the way they're saying now, they wouldn't be in the current situation. Also pointed out that London is next so we/Britain should be thankful and supportive | |||

"The problems of the middle east, as in so many places around the world, are created by religions. Religions, all religions, were created by man as a social control mechanism. They fabricated answers to the human fears of what happens after death and the question, "why are we here?" as a foundation. Consequently people, usually indoctrinated from birth, commit themselves to follow life paths created by the men who wish to control them. All this in pursuit of the "approval" of an unproven and illogical afterlife and the favour of an imaginary being or "God". Each of these religions believes they are the true way so they compete with each other with the aim of being the one dominant religion. Religious belief is however not logical. The decision to follow a given religion's edicts are frequently at odds with the freedom of thought we all treasure. In addition, for the religious zealots, simply allowing a different religion to exist goes against the will of their "God" Therefore, when considering how to negotiate with differing groups, it is virtually impossible to reach a compromise using logic. So it is in Israel. There are, world wide, around 1000 times more muslims than Jews. Right or wrong, military force is the only way the Jews can protect themselves and, sadly, the examples of history show us that extreme force is the only way to reduce the threat because logical negotiations are not possible with illogical idealists. However horrific and undesirable the carnage in Israel and Gaza is, we should remember, whilst it is easy to criticise others from the peace and comfort of our secure lives, perhaps we should walk a mile in their shoes before criticising. " Hitler, Stalin and Chairman Mao between them have probably killed more millions of people than religion ever has. It's not that religions kill people...they do. It's not that ideologies kill people...they do. It's that people kill people. Because people are shitty. Remove religion and ideology and it'd be something else. Because people are shitty. Because we are Apex Predators. We are genetically wired to do it. Tempering that genetic predisposition is understood by some religions, abusing it by others is also understood. Bottom line, I don't believe you can lay the blame purely at the feet of religion. | |||

" Agree with most of what you say but your point on Hitler, Stalin, Mao while true for 20th century (and possibly in absolute numbers though that will not be possible to prove though I suspect not proportionately in terms of world population at a given time) is probably not the case throughout history. I suspect religion has still been responsible for the vast majority of wars and suffering throughout history. However, as said above, religion is another form of social control and ideology. And yes, the tribalist nature of humans is shit! | |||

" I think religion has definitely been the cause of more deaths than the people you mentioned but ultimately it’s not about which imaginary friend you believe in, it’s about power. Religion is used as a tool by people who want power, they exploit believers to do their bidding and say it’s in the name of their god. If the Catholic Church truly believed in the teachings of Jesus the they would sell all the fancy art and treasure and use it to help the poor, but that’s not what they are about. They want to maintain their power over people. It’s the same with pretty much every other religion out there. | |||

Religion is a pretext (as is race, nationalism, creed, etc.), a rallying cry and an easy target for the liberated thinkers to point at. In and of itself, it is rarely ever a (true) reason, though, especially in a modern context. This can be seen in early Zionism - it was nationalistic and not religious in nature (this is a big topic) and also in one of the biggest issues in the Middle East - the issue of the Kurds (another huge topic). Even China's oppression of Muslims is not religious in nature, if anything, it's ANTI-religious and secular (including brainwashing and murder). On the surface, these seem like religious "wars", but none are at their core, really. | |||

Had you said the other side, it would be getting Muslims to explain the actions of the other belligerents. Both of these positions cause huge problems for members of each faith in the UK and wider world. | |||

Also mothers in Gaza are writing the names of their children onto their arms and legs. So incase they are victims of a Israeli airstream their remains can be identified. If the Hammas attack was barbaric, which 100% it was. It is now look we can be more barbaric than you. | |||

Would be interesting to see if Israel allows it in, or bars it. France, UK, USA are insisting no ground invasion before hostages are released and have their own channel with Hamas open through Qatar. | |||

"UNRWA are saying that 35 of there personnel have been killed so far because of the air strikes The personnel included teachers in UN run schools and doctors working in UN run hospitals and care facilities Israel’s response…. Deny the figures, say they don’t target civilian infrastructure Israel is making Gaza look like Mariupol Once it’s flattened they will keep it and rebuilt it as part of Israel. Luxury flats will built on the remains of Palestinian children. Sick I suppose you must have seen the planning applications at the local authority or other actual evidence from the contractors. Alternatively, you are just a contributor to the cycle of anti Israel and anti Palestinian rhetoric which verges on either Islamophobia or antisemitism. I would say the history of the land would tell us Israel has no intention of returning the land And if all the Muslim countries won do you think they would give Israel their land back ? Nope. And given this attitude you display of Muslims vs everyone else, I would tell you there are 1.9 billion muslims in the world, six of which majority countries include the top 25 most powerful militaries in the world, if all muslims wanted you dead, you’d be dead by now" I am still waiting. | |||

Considering the land was handed to Israel by Brits who wouldn’t have to stick around to face the consequences, I would say the land didn’t belong to Israel to begin with, especially if birthright is a thing where a 70 year old Palestinian can not return to their house yet a 18 year old born anywhere in the world and can prove Jewish ancestry is given a house that doesn’t belong to them and is in contravention of all UN mandates. Maybe you should go look up Judea. I mean I respect all religions and peoples rigght to believe as they choose as long as they aren’t enforcing it upon others, yet at the same time if we’re using fiction based books (not meant in a derogatory manor, simply that you can’t scientifically aprove them) then can I join Gryfondor? Sure but Judea has been confirmed by archeologists. Unless you are saying they are wrong. Be gryfandor if you fancy it doesn't mean you are correct. But I don't see Harry Potter in any 3000 year old archeological findings. Get back to me in 3000 years. You might prove your point. Unless you don't believe in scientific evidence well then you can be any fictional character you want to be. Can I call you Hagrid from now on ? " I took Hagrid personally! But returning to the point in hand if we go far back enough shouldn’t we all just return to east africa (if genetics based) or Mesopotamia (if civilisation based) Or maybe even the Indus valley (arguable to Mesopotamia) but I promise you if you think arguing about Israel and palestine is hard, then cramming all 7.8 billion of us into those small areas is going to be difficult! | |||

To have a better quality of life." When you say conquer I don’t think you mean live peacefully side by side? And if you genuinely wanted peace in the middle east why did the US veto the ceasefire fire at the UN on the 18th? Because it didn’t mention Israels right to defend itself? So if this is the case how many ceasefire agreements in the world include one sides right to attack the other? If Israel genuinely wants peace why is it continuing birthright or building more settlements in the palestinian lands? If Israel wants peace why was the population of Gaza told to move south to still be bombed in the south? Do you think by bombing Gaza, fewer or more terrorists are being created? | |||

Alternatively, you are just a contributor to the cycle of anti Israel and anti Palestinian rhetoric which verges on either Islamophobia or antisemitism. I believe the poster is referring to disaster capitalism, these capitalist have been seen by us all. they are, British P.M. The President of the USA. The French President. There is nothing Anti Semetic about highlighting a genocide which is supported by these governments. It is these governments that are supplying arms and money to a facilitate a genocide. Whilst turning a blind eye to genocide. Finally it is your support towards these governments who spout your rhetoric that makes them confident that they will get away with this as it is you that support this division of us all. My support?????....you assume something that is factually incorrect. Please ask before assuming as incorrect assumption simply negates the credibility of your argument. And there is no evidence in the analogy of disaster capitalism....just an assumption. What is happening is terrible, whether from one side or the other and beyond the real comprehension of almost everyone to the point that the argument becomes sectarian rather than rational. While we are choosing pseudo intellectual stances, supporting one side or another, the only reality is death. Sadly, I still stand by my original phrase that there appears to be a "cycle of anti Israel and anti Palestinian rhetoric which verges on either Islamophobia or antisemitism." Thanks for the input Always welcome regardless of the sentiment of how your thanks were delivered...as you may be aware, it is always easy to take a stance from the shelter of a keyboard. More meaningful input into the situation is by contribution to the relief organisations that are not proscribed in this country,to assist the innocent of both sides." How did you see my sentiment through my words? I wrote thanks for your input, take that as thanks for your input. I use voice not a keyboard, and I am far from a warrior. I see one side taking there revenge to another level, a response taken to far, if they gave Hamas a bloody nose fair enough, but over 5000 lives, no that is not right, it breaks laws on a humanitarian level, not to mention the right to water, being told to go to a safe place and then bomb that place no can see that as right. | |||

" I suppose you must have seen the planning applications at the local authority or other actual evidence from the contractors. The Planning Directorate within the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has been officially given the task of co-ordinating the postwar strategy https://www.ft.com/content/75d27680-cdaa-46f7-b810-10b594bb0ad2 The FT must have changed their article since you posted the link, because there is no mention of annexation of territory or the development of luxury homes or building above gravesites? It seems to suggest that Israel rushed in with no exit/handover strategy and that they're scrambling to make one now, since they were caught unawares and unready for this conflict." He knew full well the article said Jack in support of what he was saying. Just hoping no one went yo the effort of reading it. Just another lune like the one in the last thread saying non of the hammas atrocities happened and the hostiges are being treated well... | |||

If you read all of the report I linked, but anyway Russia is still trading oil/gas do those countries that say “Fck you” to sanctions.

"... as Israel says war with Hamas is 'do or die'. Is Iran's warning not akin to that of the USA (and the UK with the flippant comment 'we hope you win')? If Iran gets involved so will the USA and the UK - to what extent is anybody's guess and what countries will follow suit is also anybody's guess. Surely Israel has done enough. Too many people are dead already. We know that they can flatten Gaza and kill everything and everyone. What is needed is a step back and the negotiating table. Whilst what Hamas did was inexcusable, enough is enough. This simply cannot continue and Iran, the USA and all those waving their dicks about, need to stop. No worries about Iran all bark no bite except by using others for terrorism in case you didn't notice. Gota secure that petrodollar. How is your inflation again? Ok let's raise it more. Seems you are inclined to make that happen during the winter months. How thoughtful of you. Our economy is not based on oil, we need it but we would not fall apart without it, gota protect that petrodollar. Hence you got to protect Israel, without causing a war. or further escalation I should say. The UK is reliant on oil and it would have huge and detrimental impact on the economy if it were not available. Do you know if Britian buys oil in dollars if we do then yes we would be in trouble as we would crash with other countries who trade oil with the dollar, as you say. Isn’t ALL oil and gas traded in USD? No, not anymore & was surprised it’s only been traded in dollars only since 74 So we have contradictory responses. I was sure all oil and gas was traded in USD. Can you tell me what you know thank you. I believe your right hence why it is called the petrodollar, I just wondered if we are at risk if the whole region escalated into war. And it would explain for me why the US protects their interest there and it seems we have the same reason to do so. Thats why I asked and thanks for your answers. If you read all of the report I linked, but anyway Russia is still trading oil/gas do those countries that say “Fck you” to sanctions. Putin is selling his resources in local currency whether it be buyers or sellers. Countries like China & India are raking it in as its 30% lower in cost.

"Israel protects the USA interests in the region. Which interests are protected, and how does Israel protect them? (genuine question)" A previous poster posted a link to an article which explains the US involvement. Also there is a documentary called Bitter Lake on BBC iPlayer which explains how the whole region came to be, which also explains the depth of US involvement in the region. Goto protect that petrodollar. | |||

"Israel protects the USA interests in the region. Which interests are protected, and how does Israel protect them? (genuine question)" Possibly by validating a reason to be there in the first place while not actually being seen as an aggressor just protecting its global interests? In case you didn’t notice before anyone of importance from the USA went to Israel someone met with the Saudi Royal Family. I’d guess to get an appraisal as to how far the Arab world would allow (& it is allow) Israel to go & to ensure things are all good. IMO Israel are holding back on their ground offensive because I believe their game plan was to take Gaza and stay there. She got told no settling by dad & via aunty SA. & like a petulant child she’s smashing up all the toys anyway. Of course none of this would ever be public to save face & not let Joe Public know what really goes on & who really pull the strings. S | |||

Either directly or through giving American contractors the contracts of rebuilding Ukraine. Israel on the other hand gets annually $3.8 billion of military. Which comes from the foreign aid budget. It has been receiving this since 1948, though obviously not $3.8b to start with. I don't believe that needs to be paid back. | |||

Very informative now we peel back the surface so other can see what true intentions are, because one cannot argue with what has already passed. I watched a programme about the nazis last night but that isn't my point, at the end of this programme, they discussed Israel as a new land. and how Israel had to ask other countries for aid and weapons to build and protect, to my surprise one of these countries was west Germany and the deal they made was to not send anymore nazis to jail or hang them in return for w Germanys support, its on the iplayer think its called the devil something. | |||

Can you tell me what you know thank you. I believe your right hence why it is called the petrodollar, I just wondered if we are at risk if the whole region escalated into war. And it would explain for me why the US protects their interest there and it seems we have the same reason to do so. Thats why I asked and thanks for your answers. If you read all of the report I linked, but anyway Russia is still trading oil/gas do those countries that say “Fck you” to sanctions. Putin is selling his resources in local currency whether it be buyers or sellers. Countries like China & India are raking it in as its 30% lower in cost. Pretty sure Turkey is also not paying in dollars not for Putins supply anyway. The Oetrofollar came about after a meeting between the USA/OPEC in the 70’s crises where an agreement was made to sell oil only in USD. This has been the start/middle & likely be the end of the USA being the centre of the universe. The USA no longer buy from OPEC, on paper st least but in the same way Europe don’t buy oil from Putin. Others do, India for instance who supply others like parts of North Africa, who supply parts of Southern Europe. Doesn’t take too long to figure out why the energy panic in Europe last year is virtually over does it? America up until recently bouts more oil from Canada than Canada produced, so Canada bought in & so it went on until eventually to fill American fuel tanks someone bought from OPEC & all that trading in USD propping up the USA allowing her to go 31Trillion dollars in debt & being able to make interest payments of a staggering 1.5billion dollars a day. As I said OPEC could end the USA within months if they swapped to Euros which is most likely currency. S I just read your link thanks for that it is what I assumed, but didn't know about the Saudi connection. So another question for who can answer, the US funding Ukraine and Israel, would these countries have to pay back what was loaned to them. Judging by the fact the UK only made its final war loan payments in the last twenty years or so I’d say yes. “Protector of the free world....... as long as you pay us one way or another”.
S
Payment can also take many forms not just “cash”."Yep & I’d guess it’s why odd countries like Belgium, Japan & the UK are the top holders of the USA’s National debt. Foreign states hold 11 Trillion dollars of it. Interestingly the Saudi’s have been offloading theirs slowly for the decade or so since Gulf2 & now only hold about 100Billion, China too have been offloading what they can. For various reasons obviously like current turmoil in China. Not so much in Saudi though. Wonder what will happen when no Middle East state holds any of the USA’s debt? Scans thread for previous answer... Oh yeah, might be a long term plan, the desert will wait. We’ll just have to see. OR....... Conversely of course Israel could be a tool, let her invade Gaza, Iran & Jordan attack, maybe Syria too. Between them Israel & the USA (& Saudi’s) wipe the floor with them after yet another war in the Middle East. Result, The USD continues to be propped up by the oil trade, The Saudi royal family stay in power & stay as the power brokers of the Middle East & their enemy Iran is back in the dark ages & Israel get to keep Gaza. How’s that work for everybody? S | |||

"... as Israel says war with Hamas is 'do or die'. Is Iran's warning not akin to that of the USA (and the UK with the flippant comment 'we hope you win')? If Iran gets involved so will the USA and the UK - to what extent is anybody's guess and what countries will follow suit is also anybody's guess. Surely Israel has done enough. Too many people are dead already. We know that they can flatten Gaza and kill everything and everyone. What is needed is a step back and the negotiating table. Whilst what Hamas did was inexcusable, enough is enough. This simply cannot continue and Iran, the USA and all those waving their dicks about, need to stop. No worries about Iran all bark no bite except by using others for terrorism in case you didn't notice. Gota secure that petrodollar. How is your inflation again? Ok let's raise it more. Seems you are inclined to make that happen during the winter months. How thoughtful of you. Our economy is not based on oil, we need it but we would not fall apart without it, gota protect that petrodollar. Hence you got to protect Israel, without causing a war. or further escalation I should say.

Nobody seems to be able to express this (not even the president of the USA). Perhaps it warrants further research." Israel does not, but as I posted it does give the USA reason to be there which otherwise she would not have. As I posted the US makes a bike thing now about it being “Free of Middle East oil” if that’s true that backs up the assumption that without Israel bring there the USA would have no legitimate reason to be. S As an aside I find it utterly crass of the Israeli leadership to be worrying more about a statement from the United Nations & calling for the resignation of its head & that the fact almost the whole world has said “Enough” all while still firing missiles & bombs on civilians & not allowing aid in. And everyone thinks Hamas are the only barbarians. Just fck right off with that bollocks now. S S | |||

"It needs to end, before millions of people die. How can a race of people who experience their own genocide, do the same-thing to another." They set up that excuse last night by saying that Hamas is hoarding the available fuel….. they are not going to let any in and still try and blame Hamas, whilst sending an FU to the UN It does feel more and more like collective punishment…. When UNRWA does run out.. they will still blame hamas | |||

"Israel are playing an interesting game here… 1st they tell people to move south… and still bomb the south Then they say anyone who decides to stay in the north may be considered to be an enemy combatant, which sets up the excuse for when they kill civilians more than they are doing now They are basically going to flatten the place more than they have! Using religious quotes at the end to not give the land back He is setting up the next stage… bomb Lebanon, bomb Syria, taking out people in the West Bank, and starving an entire population out of existence I wonder if it gets to the stage where the un just try and send in aid and dare the Israeli’s to shoot it down, or if the Israeli bomb the rafah crossing again to take the road out" I would honestly hope at that point China, Russia & the rest of the Middle East if not behind the scenes the whole world say to America “Walk away now or we are all going to die because of a religious crackpot”. crazily a crackpot who didn’t even win the election & is close to finishing what Hitler started. I think Israelis need to off him & the two top guys within the IDF because they spout the same shit before they all die along with many many others. S | |||

You are missing the point. Israel has 200 bodies, it also says over 200 have been taken because that’s how many they cannot find, not because they know for certain they are being held by Hamas. If you have 200 unidentified bodies & 220 missing citizens Logic says you have possibly 20 taken, the rest your pathologist has & is working through. S | |||

So why say Hamas are holding over 220 people? Math says that’s physically not possible if you only have 220 missing people & 200 unidentified bodies, unless the vast majority of the unidentified bodies are not Israeli which is highly unlikely. The whole point I’m making is it seems again Israel are bigging up the truth to give its actions verification & no one is pulling them up on it. Seeing as we are hearing from Hamas about strikes, casualties, fuel for hospitals.etc. Why do we not get told how many they have? Why is it always info from IDF? S | |||

If Israel wanted to Gaza would be gone the first day.. would you prefer carpet bombings or targeted response to Hamas. I know your answer you would prefer none.

Doesn't fit what narrative? Yours? 200 hostages taken aljazzera says. 200 people that can't be identified because they look like ground beef. Tell Hamas to release the hostages so they can get a accurate headcount. Otherwise they have 200 hostages . They are not denying it. They said they would release the hostages if Israel stops their airstrikes. If Israel capitulates that is a bad idea.That sends a signal that anyone can just take hostages with no consequences.
Apart from being bombed to fuck of course. Oh yes the bombing thing . They are precision strikes. If Israel wanted to Gaza would be gone the first day.. would you prefer carpet bombings or targeted response to Hamas. I know your answer you would prefer none. In case you didn't realize military professionals do what ? Stack bodies. It's a cold hard facts none of you realize.I look at the conflict as Team A against Team B. You all look at it as what the news tells you to look at. "Don't really understand your post, I want to understand your point. Is Team A civilians, and team B Hamas/IDF? | |||

Yep, and the lack of tactical ops understanding is obvious from certain posts, but they have a keyboard and a message....."But also Hamas could be “not denying” they have them so the ground assault is delayed, who knows it’s war & you use information & disinformation to your advantage. But math is math, If I take Israel’s own words of 220 missing, stated as hostages & the pathologists word that they have over 200 bodies yet to be identified as fact. Well then, someone is lying aren’t they? Truth is they do not know where these people are & instead of saying “We think many are in the hospital waiting to be identified & Hamas may have a few” which is likely nearer the truth they big up the hostage figure for propaganda & even if Hamas do have 220 & confirm it someone still needs to do the math & say... “But erm, we now have 200 too many people”. This is my point. It cannot be so....Ergo it is an untruth. S | |||

Exactly where (as in, actually) are these underlying numbers and facts coming from, and who/what is this pathologist? Hamas (reported by AJ) claims that Israeli attacks killed 30, plus we know ~25 are alive, as per hostage released, so that's 55, and Hamas says they are distributed around, which suggests many more... You're right that Hamas could be overplaying their hand to gain more concessions, or Israel could be exaggerating (can't see how it helps in the long run, they'll just have egg on their face if they are), but reports that there are negotiations for 50 hostages that do not include all Israelis or any IDF suggest that ~200 is a good guess. | |||

"... as Israel says war with Hamas is 'do or die'. Is Iran's warning not akin to that of the USA (and the UK with the flippant comment 'we hope you win')? If Iran gets involved so will the USA and the UK - to what extent is anybody's guess and what countries will follow suit is also anybody's guess. Surely Israel has done enough. Too many people are dead already. We know that they can flatten Gaza and kill everything and everyone. What is needed is a step back and the negotiating table. Whilst what Hamas did was inexcusable, enough is enough. This simply cannot continue and Iran, the USA and all those waving their dicks about, need to stop. Interesting that you say that because an Israeli representative was on the kuenssberg (forgive my spelling) show this morning stating the exact opposite IE that they've been listening to the west since their inception and if they'd done things the way they're saying now, they wouldn't be in the current situation. Also pointed out that London is next so we/Britain should be thankful and supportive " Ex Israeli PM | |||

"Surely a realist would long ago have sussed out that a Middle East peace is unlikely with Israel & Palestine as they currently sit & Israel’s long term survival (Not talking 5-10yrs more 50+) is dependant on a free Palestine, possibly a rewriting of the map & two state solution. You speak as if you are proud of what your country has done in the last few wars? I think you & your colleagues should be proud of what you personally did for your country which was your duty. However what America as a country did for the world, more so the Middle East is less certain. What did you achieve in Gulf2? What country did you bomb to shit & leave better & more stable than before you arrived? Which terrorist group did you end completely? Isn’t the answer none? So therefore all you really achieved was death of a far higher number than had you not gone, long term unrest in the area, Left the Taliban in charge of Afghanistan, guaranteed the continued use of the petrodollar for another few years & kept your friends in Saudi Arabia at the top of the Middle East tree, you know those Islamist friends.........The same ones you don’t like the ideology of. Also I like the way when I use Israel’s own figures against it instead of saying “Yeah, that doesn't look right”. We get a “War is shit, blah blah blah” Standard diversionary cop out. Also while I’m here, Why are 96 Palestinians dead in the West Bank as Hamas are not there? & while Israel harps on about the 220 taken why have they arrested & detained 1400 Palestinians in the West Bank? And why is the MSM ignoring this? In the same way it is ignoring the reporting of the Warning from the Qatari state which has now been made twice! & I quote “We will not stand idly by while we watch Palestinian civilians get slaughtered, starved of food, water & aid, & humanitarian assistance must be allowed in” This was about three days ago after Israel told civilians to move South for their safety & when they started to promptly began bombing the South. Classy move. The threat (idle or not) was reiterated yesterday as Israel had not allowed aid in. I love the use of language by Israel too. “The fuel we allowed into Gaza is in the hands of Hamas, so we are not allowing anymore in”. Fair enough you’d think, but they didn’t say Military wing & as Hamas are actually the standing government in power anything going in to Gaza bar direct aid would go via them even if they then put that fuel in hospital generators surely it goes “Through the hands of Hamas”. Doesn’t it? It must do if they run the hospitals etc. So are the IDF/BN just using a play on words much like they are doing a play on numbers? S | |||

Apparently the UN & UNrwa in Gaza are teaching kids how to shoot guns. Meanwhile Usrael tells its own people that if they cannot move to arm themselves. Presumably not the kids here then & not with guns

People die clearly as you just stated. It happens. Especially in cities. Would you prefer the IDF use dumb bombs with no guidance? They are deploying accurate weapons. Even new ones to" limit" collateral damage. So that is telling me that the IDF are taking out selected targets. Not indiscriminately air strikes and I am sure the list you posted will grow. But the choice of weapons they are using compared to what they can use indiscriminately your list would be much larger. If the ground war kicks off more people from both sides are going to perish. So make sure your accurate tally is on point. You will be typing alot. | |||

"I disagree somewhat with the notion that the removal of religion will just mean fighting over something else. To an extent it would, but take away the faith that a better world will be yours when you die in the name of your God & the thought that “Dead is dead, you are worm food, game over, that’s it” would undoubtedly lead to more people not wishing to die in the first place no matter the reason for their fight. S There is no proof of the existance of Heaven, Hell, Shamayim, Valhalla, Janna, Sagga,etc. The scientific proof is, when we die, we become worm food. Humans will always kill to get what they want and Kill to defend that which is theirs. Having said that, hopefully, if reality struck home, then some cleric sitting on a golden throne, invoking the name of an imaginary omnipotent entity, could not get young men to blow themselve up on the promise of 72 virgins in the afterlife. (PS. can anyone think of anything less desirable than an eternity with 72 virgins? )
Eternity with 72 virgins and suffering from impotency. "Why 72 virgins; why not 6, 17, 69 or 73? 72 is the number of angels & demons as per the Hebrew esoteric kabbalah tradition. The Kabbalistic angels, also known as the Angels of the Shem HaMephorash, are 72 celestial spirits whose names are derived from the 72-fold name of the Hebrew god as found in the Book of Exodus. They are closely connected to the 72 Goetic demons, which they rule over. Later Christian authors added to the lore of the Kabbalistic angels by incorporating Greek, Egyptian, and Persian concepts into their philosophies. And this number 72 was taken up by Muslims when allocating virgins in a hadith. After 9/11 this number became widely known and 7 Oct is adding to its notoriety. | |||

People die clearly as you just stated. It happens. Especially in cities. Would you prefer the IDF use dumb bombs with no guidance? They are deploying accurate weapons. Even new ones to" limit" collateral damage. So that is telling me that the IDF are taking out selected targets. Not indiscriminately air strikes and I am sure the list you posted will grow. But the choice of weapons they are using compared to what they can use indiscriminately your list would be much larger. If the ground war kicks off more people from both sides are going to perish. So make sure your accurate tally is on point. You will be typing alot." This is the problem with actions against groups line Hamas that deliberately hide amongst the general population knowing that if they get hit so do some of the innocent people.

" Oh yes the bombing thing . They are precision strikes. If Israel wanted to Gaza would be gone the first day.. would you prefer carpet bombings or targeted response to Hamas. I know your answer you would prefer none. In case you didn't realize military professionals do what ? Stack bodies. It's a cold hard facts none of you realize.I look at the conflict as Team A against Team B. You all look at it as what the news tells you to look at. Israel are so great with the precision strikes so far they have hit…. Killing Egyptian soldiers on the wrong side of the border Killing journalists on the Lebanon side of that border Hit UN related schools.. killing 3 dozen UN personnel Hit Red Cross/ Red Crescent ambulances killing 10 personnel A mosque in the West Bank The oldest Christian church in Gaza But heck .collateral damage right… and that’s without talking about the thousands of innocent people… you say innocent people but what have they done to stop Hamas have the Palestiniansem given them up have they pointed as to where they are do they give Israel information on them if not they ain't helping their course we can't call hamas a terrorist group and not see they can terrorise their own. but what have there own done about them do they want Hamas there in which case they aren't innocent and if they don't want them why aren't they fighting to get rid.

Arrested & detained 1400 & 2 20 somethings have died while in custody, which if we are being harsh is not unusual in a war, but........West Bank, not Gaza. Is this the old “Look over there, look what those nasty Hamas are doing!............. Isn’t someone who raids another’s land & snatches it’s subjects for no given reason commonly known as a terrorist? Was three weeks ago anyway......... S | |||

People die clearly as you just stated. It happens. Especially in cities. Would you prefer the IDF use dumb bombs with no guidance? They are deploying accurate weapons. Even new ones to" limit" collateral damage. So that is telling me that the IDF are taking out selected targets. Not indiscriminately air strikes and I am sure the list you posted will grow. But the choice of weapons they are using compared to what they can use indiscriminately your list would be much larger. If the ground war kicks off more people from both sides are going to perish. So make sure your accurate tally is on point. You will be typing alot. This is the problem with actions against groups line Hamas that deliberately hide amongst the general population knowing that if they get hit so do some of the innocent people. It's a tactic by design not by accident. Is it worth mass murdering all these kids to try to pop off a few Hamas lads?" This is the dilemma Israel are faced with as these Hamas people have proven they are more than willing to murder Israeli children on mass and will do so whenever possible. They are also very willing to put Palestinian children in harm's way and try to use them as protection, this us how brave these people are. It goes back to the question someone asked on another thread. How far would you go to protect your own children? Would you knowingly put a stranger in danger of harm or even death to save the life of your own children? | |||
