Defending UNRWA is like defending Hamas, something I have no doubt your group is still cheering on.

Defending israel is defending terrorism. You're a terrorist sympathizer if you defend Israel.

I have no doubt you love seeing little Palestinian children and their mothers burnt to a crisp.

Two can play this game.

It isn't a game. As usual, your comments are disgusting.

Israel defending itself to you is terrorism. Israel defending itself from being destroyed is not acceptable to you. Too bad Hamas agrees with you, had they actually wanted peace twenty years ago, there would be peace today and none of this would have happened. Instead, they agreed with you.

So it's not a game, you just like to make up lies and not answer any questions?

Israeli soldiers are terrorist scumbags the same way Hamas members are. Both the same. Israel though has more firepower to be even more vile and evil and dropping 2000 dumb bombs on civilians is pure evil terrorism.

I'm sorry that offends you. Maybe look in the mirror and be a better person and stop defending terrorism.

Yeah agreed, you should look Into learning what the word means. It doesn't mean just arabs doing the terrorism. Anyone can fit the description of a terrorist.

He must be a hamas supporter all the way from North Carolina!

"All of the disasters I've seen combined — combined. 40 mission trips, 30 years, ground zero, earthquakes, all of that combined doesn't equal the level of carnage that I saw against civilians in just my first week in Gaza."

Most humane army in the world! They are fixing sewer pipes they're so humane!

Or maybe terrorism is what Israel does best.

Positive news coming out of China. Will have to wait and see the actions out of this signed agreement and whether or not peace can indeed be kept internally amongst the groups but dialogue is always better than none. Hopefully, this deal doesn't get sabotaged by other players in the region.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/23/china...hnk/index.html

Hong KongCNN#—#

Palestinian factions including rivals Hamas and Fatah have signed an agreement on “ending division and strengthening Palestinian unity” in Beijing,#China#said Tuesday.

The announcement followed reconciliation talks hosted by China involving 14 Palestinian factions starting Sunday, according to China’s Foreign Ministry, which come as Israel wages war against militant group Hamas in Gaza and as Beijing has sought to present itself as a potential peace broker in the conflict.
Quote:
“The core outcome is that the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization) is the sole legitimate representative of all Palestinian people,” Wang said, adding that “an agreement has been reached on post-Gaza war governance and the establishment of a provisional national reconciliation government.”

It's nice to see them talking, and I do sincerely hope it works. However, my gut tells me that this agreement will have about as much staying power as BRICS, ie. when push comes to shove on an important issues, historical rivalries will emerge and take center stage again.

Pretty significant if China is able to broker a peace deal in this case. China brokered Saudi-Iran as well. Peace, regardless who brokers it, is a good outcome. It's pretty obvious that China has made their move in this region and are taking this area of the Risk board. Interesting times.

Uniting behind the PLO and not Hamas is a good start.

There are some very lucrative construction contracts at stake with peace.

I think that it has more to do with political influence over loans rather than the actual construction contracts.

Everyone in this conflict operates with nefarious purposes and unfortunately civilians, with children in particular, are stuck in the middle. Peace would be nice but I don't see how a lasting peace will be possible considering the atrocities committed by both sides and the longstanding hatred that has been fomented in the conflict so far.

I agree. Lasting peace isn't possible while you have two sides that aren't actually interested in lasting peace.

The honorable Bernie Sanders' speech on the eve of Netanyahu's address to the US Congress. Worth watching in full.

You conveniently failed to also mention the terrorist attack today by Hezbollah that killed Arab Druze kids playing soccer.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, already due to head back from the United States to Israel overnight on Saturday, said he would bring his flight forward and convene his security cabinet upon arrival.

His far-right coalition ally, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, called for tough retaliation, including against Hezbollah's leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.

"For the death of children, Nasrallah should pay with his head. All of Lebanon should pay," Smotrich posted on X. "The prime minister should return immediately. This is the time for actions."
Ah good, collective punishment. That's how you know they are the good guys.

Time for Israel to reject their warmongers in government, they are not helping. At all.

I suppose it's something that you acknowledge that rocket attacks that kill children are acts of terrorism.
