If gaza don't want to get bombed, it shouldn't bomb Israel in the first place.

Do you really think any country would allow to get themselves bombed?

 

Bombed? You are justifying genocide.

2014 aggression on Gaza started by Israel. An excuse was 3 kidnapped teenagers, which followed the revenge of burning teen Abu Khdeir alive and making up stories how he was killed by Palestinians because he was gay; the "period of calm" never existed, since daily Palestinian victims are rarely in the news. It was then when Hamas responded by rockets. And the hasbara started "we are daily showered with rockets, what would you do, tunnels, khamaas!"

You are comparing groups with homemade rockets, which mostly end up in empty field with a country with full army, air force and navy, bombing civilians with their F-16s. 

66 people died on Israeli side, 6 civilians.

Over 2300 died on Palestinian side, majority civilians. Over 500 children. Do you remember bombing kids on the beach? Not to mention bombing of the only power plant and whole infrustructure.

Any other country doesn't occupy another nation, keeps them under military law and steals their land without consequences. If any other country did that, they would be long time ago sanctioned or even bombed.

At least military aid would be cut, but no, Israel gets away with anything and AIPAC is asking another 50 billion dollars.

It's not a genocide. Palestinian population is growing. 

btw those kidnapped Israelis were found dead. Why don't you mention that? And Hamas responded to what? They started all the mess lol. Don't make excuses for Hamas who violently call for the death of all Jews. 

Hamas should put the money into their population and don't use them as human shield and should use the money they get for infrastatrue. 

And Israel needs the money. It is surrounded by enemies who would invade Israel if they could. If Israel is weak it would endanger the worlds half Jewish population.

Yeah they were dead, but Israeli government pretended there is still hope and was just milking the whole situation to get more people to support the war. And your solution to that is not to find the people who did it, but instead a full blown war and collective punishment, right? Not very different from what you claim about Hamas. 

You're telling them where they should put their money, while asking 50 billion from Americans. Interesting.

Yes it is a genocide, every 3 years couple of thousands are slaughtered and you just blame them for their own death. Not to mention thousands of injured and sick from cancer and all kinds of diseases, but they're can't be treated abroad cause their borders are sealed.

idk if you're looking at it from a human rights perspective, israel is doing some terrible things. i've heard that the gaza strip can be compared to what might be a modern day concentration camp. at the same time, the palestinians who i believe want to establish an independent state in the west bank is plagued by continued israeli settlements that prevent this and israel in fact feeds the proliferating acrimony of the palestinian people and an anti-jewish sentiment by evicting people from their homes, limiting where they can go in the west bank, etc. 

on the other hand, when i think about it, israel might be concerned with "terrorists" who i guess govern the people in the gaza strip, and they work to contain them at the expense of the normal, everyday people. the same dynamic might be at play in the west bank? in other words, israel might be afraid of a coalescence of what might turn out to be a great enemy at its borders, so they seek to divide and conquer. there is an entire history involved in this area and age-old hostilities held by the palestinian people so one can never tell whether this unrest will spill over into israel once the means to do so is there.

ultimately, i think the normal people here, the everyday non-government, non-violent people who seek to live in peace and with some sort of comfort in gaza and the west bank are the real victims of those in power on both sides. this is a difficult situation to solve and considering the current circumstances idk if it is solvable. but the current dynamic seems to me to be unstable and will eventually lead to some kind of bigger conflict or even war.

So you saying Israel knew they were dead. Those sneaky Jews.

That post would be great but you this correlation to Nazi Germany where 6 million of Jews died is not cool. There is no other country, despite what they do, that gets compared to Nazi Germany than Israel

Government knew.

 

On 12 June, three Jewish Israeli youths, Naftali Frenkel, Gilad Shaar and Eyal Yifrach, went missing while hitchhiking from Kfar Etzion, an illegal settlement in the occupied West Bank. At 10:25pm, Shaar placed a panicked call to Israeli police.

During the eerie call lasting two minutes and nine seconds, the supposed kidnappers can be heard ordering the youths to keep their heads down. Israel Radio plays in the background as Shaar repeatedly appeals for help. Then several gunshots can be heard followed by celebratory singing as the kidnappers remark, “We got three.” The teens had been killed.

http://www.jpost.com/Operation-Brothers-Keeper/In-extended-version-of-kidnapped-teens-call-to-police-murderers-heard-singing-in-celebration-361270

It took until the next morning for the police to connect the call to a missing persons report filed by the youths’ parents. In a meeting with Shin Bet officials that day, the teens’ parents listened to a recording of the phone call.

Bat Galim Shaar, the mother of Gilad Shaar, demanded investigators explain to her why gunshots can be heard in the background, and if this meant that her son was dead.

According to Bat Galim Shaar, police claimed the bullets were “blanks.” When the car used by the alleged kidnappers was discovered burned by a roadside, the Shin Bet told her no DNA was found. In fact, bullets and blood were present throughout the interior of the car. The Shin Bet had lied to the parents of the missing teens in order to stoke false hopes that their sons were alive.

“When [the Shin Bet] told me finally at 6:00am Friday that the army was on the job, I felt better — as if we were in good hands,” Bat Galim Shaar told Israel’s Channel 10. “I was naïve, I told everyone Gilad would be home before Shabbat.”

Having deceived the victims’ parents, Israel’s military-intelligence apparatus moved to conceal the truth from the general public, imposing a gag order that barred the country’s media from reporting on the sound of gunshots in the recorded call to police.

According to the text of the gag order,which was first published in English atMondoweiss, the military had forbidden Israeli reporters from publicizing “All the details of the investigation” and “All details that might identify the suspect.”

Not only did all involved in the investigation — Netanyahu, the Shin Bet, the military — know right away that the three missing teens were almost certainly dead, they had identified the two men they believed were responsible for the crime little more than a day after it occurred.

To legitimize the military’s wider goals, they withheld this information as well.

On 17 June, Arabic-language news siteRai Al Youm reported that Israeli police and Shin Bet agents had raided the homes of Marwan Qawasmeh and Amer Abu Eishe, the main suspects, near the southern West Bank city of Hebron. As a Palestinian news outlet based in London, Rai Al Youm was not subject to the Israeli military’s gag order and was therefore free to publish the names of the two accused kidnappers.

o well i didn't mean to do that. i should have written internment camps, maybe? idk. i think of concentration camps as being on a spectrum, germany being the worst. i think the japanese were put into concentration camps during WWII but the conditions weren't nearly as bad.

I wish people knew how these forums work, if someone puts you on ignore list it's like

dont-hear.gif

so passive-aggressive jabs or other attempts to get attention again, won't work.

If people could discuss the topic instead that would be nice change.
