Conflict flares up in Gaza again

[Alan]

Israel isn't a western democratic state. Its a middle eastern democratic state.

Somebody forgot to tell UEFA :erm:

My advice is that they should have accepted the first cease fire that was offered to them days ago.

Tell me... were those Palestine women and kids a part of Hamas group??? Did they have a say in the cease-fire negotiation? What excuses do "God's children" have for killing those innocent defenseless people!!!????

More importantly, what crime did the four children on the beach in Gaza commit?

Why do you keep calling them 'God's Children'?

No crime but tell me what crime did the civilian in Israel do when he was killed by a hamas rocket.

I agree with you. Hamas must carry the blame for their deaths.

None at all, the point is we are constantly told that Israel would never resort to terrorism unlike Hamas. However the killing of 4 children on a beach shows that the IDF can't take the moral high ground in this conflict.

perhaps israel should not have stolen their land and farms and build settlements on it ?

Hahaa only when they hiding behind their Iron dome and shooting rockets from far. Now that they decided to go into Palestine, even with their tanks, ammo, rockets, the most advanced military in the world etc they have had most deaths since 2006 ............... all this against stones, a country with no army, civilians!!

Bring them deeper into Palestine and let them get punished!!

Must be easy to be the big man on the block when you are using tanks against people on foot.

maybe someone should invite them to a real war...easy to attack civilian populations...

What has Hamas built? What have the Palestinians built?
In 66 years there has been no development there.
No infrastructure, no progress, no technology, nothing.
They bought a bunch of rockets and lobbed those at Israel... that's about it.

I'm going to close it temporarily until tomorrow.

Humanitarian ceasefire Gary?

Whereas Israel having been building up a storm in the occupied territories, just not for use by Palestinians.

Considering the IDF practise of destroying people's homes it's a bit rich to accuse the Palestinians of not building anything.

You also do know that Israel banned importing concrete into Gaza ?

If we cannot discuss peace while sitting thousands of miles away do you think those in the conflicted area can?

Over 2500 posts in this thread alone and most of them are adversarial (and plenty of personal attacks).

Some serious paradigm shifting required...
