Well, if you disagree you could've easily made another thread around this part of the article. 

I invite you to do it. We're all free to make threads.

Well, I don't see the point in you complaining about others not posting about something if you aren't willing to post about them either

The truth is: the politicians from both sides loves this conflict..

The conflict=money and power.

While Palestinians are dying you see their politicians living a very good life..

Same with Israelis, but less.. they are just a human shield that protect Netanyahu and his extremist friends from losing their power and richness...

Sadly, USA is not really helping to solve this because the conflict is good for them too.

Sanders will do nothing to end it, no one will allow him to do any action behind the scene, trust me.

 

Well they need an ally in the ME, they are freaking out that Iran will regain too much power. They need Israel to stay put and use the excuse that Iran is such a threat when it isn't but well regarding the expenses they have, they better justify it and it's easy to convince people who don't know **** about ME politics.

What is interesting with Bernie is we could imagine that he can say such comments without being called anti semitic. I wonder if it would be the same if another candidate would say the same. But as long as he doesn't question Israel existence I guess he can comment on the conflict as much as he wants...

Sanders is treading in dangerous politcal territory too soon I think.   This particular conflict carries a lot of emotional weight with the voters who have family or personal ties linked to the region.  

Secondly, I think that the media distortion of the events along with the lack of credible intel make thinks worse as each faction will inflate their own cause.

Achieving peace is impossible unless Israel puts an end to its belligerence towards Palestinians and refrains from treating them like prisoners... 

And Palestinians stop targeting Israeli civilians. There are always two kinds of a coin
