No, because they want to get rid of Hamas terrorists…..those people you think are fluffy bunniesBecause they can, with impunity, and the blessing of the US and UK.
Of course. What do you think the Israeli's are doing in Gaza - ethnic cleansing?Does that indicate that it was Israel preventing the aid trucks reaching Gaza, not Egypt.
It's not really an invasion, Israel is already the military occupier of Gaza.Bombing is part of a military invasion
But it's pretty obvious that bombing will not achieve that, so why continue with bombing?No, because they want to get rid of Hamas terrorists…..those people you think are fluffy bunnies
Of course it's Israel's border. They are the military occupier of both the West Bank and Gaza.clearly Israel has influence, but these news reports saying “Israel must open border Rafa border” are false - It’s not Israel’s border.
by starvation of food, water and medicine, in addition to the bombing.Of course. What do you think the Israeli's are doing in Gaza - ethnic cleansing?
Explain the difference.It’s not quite as simplistic as that.
Although it’s true Israel is an ally of the West, Russia is not.
By any other criteria the West would certainly accuse Iran or Russia of these crimes but because it's Israel - and they were attacked first - the Zionists get carte blanche to bomb with impunity just because they want to keep going and make sure they get more than just a pound of flesh. Turning Gaza into a butchers shop will not advocate their cause one step further towards any peaceful settlement; especially while Jewish settlers take it out on Palestinians along the West Bank who're under completely different administration who had nothing to do with the attacks by Hamas. Palestinians have been sacked from their jobs in Israel - why? They had nothing to do with the attacks either.by starvation of food, water and medicine, in addition to the bombing.
Yes, despite millions of dollars ($200M) going into the defence of a 7 metre high wall along 37 kilometres of the border, (Gaza is only 41 kilometres long) equipped with automatic sensors triggering automatic machine gun fire, a fence with a gate was left unguarded.By any other criteria the West would certainly accuse Iran or Russia of these crimes but because it's Israel - and they were attacked first -
the ease with which the militant group appeared to operate inside Israel
It also showed the ease with which Hamas militants moved around inside Israel.
Israeli security forces were nowhere to be found.
Israel’s defence and intelligence establishment has come under criticism for failing to prevent or repel the attack, which was planned in plain sight. Border communities were left on their own for hours.
the militants easily broke into a military base, killing soldiers at the front desk before grabbing their assault rifles.
A group of young female soldiers cowered as a militant entered the room and began shooting.
Hamas took scores of hostages after rampaging through southern Israeli communities and military bases
Palestinians have been sacked from their jobs in Israel - why? They had nothing to do with the attacks either
Have your mates released the hostages yet?A few pictures of Gaza, that is described as self-defence
Any evidence of that?Israel had been keeping its borders virtually closed from Gaza, but they had started to open up and begin to trust somewhat……that didnt go well at all.
Both Israel and Egypt enforce strict control over the passage of people and goods as part of an earlier blockade imposed in 2007 after Hamas came to power.
Despite Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza, since 2007 it has maintained tight control over the territory through a land, air and sea blockade. For nearly 17 years, Gaza has been almost totally cut off from the rest of the world, with severe restrictions on the movement of goods and people.
Even before Hamas’ attacks and Israel’s retaliation on Gaza, living conditions in the enclave were dire.
Human Rights Watch has called the territory an “open-air prison” – Gazans have limited access to healthcare, education and economic opportunities.
“For at least the last decade and a half, the socioeconomic situation in Gaza has been in steady decline,” the UNRWA said in August.
