Current Affairs Israel is an apartheid state

[The binman chronicles]

It is, but why was that claim ever made in the first place? We had journalists on camera saying they had personally seen horrific things; why did they have to embellish it even further with details like that?

I agree. Question is though can we say for sure that it hasn't occurred at all? Obviously the scale might not be what they have reported but that is the clickbait world we live in.

Not sure I agree with that. So what do we want Israel to do, laugh it off as high jinks? It was always going to trigger a greater retaliation than what Hamas started and as they went in balls deep what do they expect to happen. The problem with a large number of terrorists living in a relatively small area is always going to end up like this. It's not like there is a big Hamas terrorist camp lit up in the corner and the Israelis are ignoring that and bombing civilians areas.

I hate it but it is understandable.

If there was any common sense involved (and they absolutely have to have armed acts to push forward their plight) then gaza and the west bank would be whiter than white and let outside groups that are dotted all over the world commit those acts (but let's get this straight legitimate targets not innocent civilians).

I think we need both sides here because it is Israel aggressively trying to defend itself and take land, and on the other side Jihad and a hatred of Israel with terrorism justified by religion.

You ain’t fixing this one way and its unimageable horrible to have that conclusion. And frankly thinking that one side is better than the other in this won’t get us anywhere because as we’ve seen in recent days it’s a horrible spiral of unacceptable violence whitch both sides willing to take.

There is a way to do this, even now.

It starts with treating the Palestinian Authority better, stopping and removing settlements in the West Bank and generally building peace and improving the lives of the Palestinians with a clear and near prospect of their own viable state.

It will need patience, and there’s going to be tragedies along the way, but as people’s lives improve they are generally less likely to commit acts of violence.

From what i understand they so rabidly support Israel simply so it could get destroyed and "Kingdom of Heaven" come to Earth (or something like that).
Also apparently they make influential part of American voting apparatus so American politicians usually kiss their asses.

Correct. They believe the restoration of the Jewish people to the land of Israel will bring about the coming of the messiah, and the rapture, and Jews will be forced to convert or perish. They're disgusting people.

But not by execution of children right

Hey it's not like they have never shot dead kids throwing stones at IDF soldiers.

Anyone got any info on what’s happening ( if anything) in the West Bank towns?

I haven’t heard much on this from either Israeli or Arab sites.

What even is the point

He is such a coward, it makes my skin crawl.

23 dead since Saturday apparently, including three killed by settlers attacking a Palestinian town. Most of the PA-administered areas are locked down.

Could be couldn’t it? My thought is no. American hostages to be picked up one way or the other from the savage Hamas

Agreed it's grim just think it's horrendous for all the children on both sides. It's not their fault.

Or if Hez get involved then the US will need to quickly evacuate its embassy in Beirut.

Or a message to Iran. This will become messy with no winners.
