They have a very young population of. 2.1 million people to induct or hide behind. 50% of Gaza is under 18 and, when expanded, 80% are under 30. What they could accomplish if they declared independence from Hamas, turned them in, helped the idf, and started to govern themselves and build their own exportable goods for trade isn't impossible and easy if they all helped each other. Gaza was beautiful, green and alive when Israel left and instead of building on what they inherited, they gave governing of the area to a terrorist group who hates them, kills them, uses them as shields and brings them more death whenever they can. Take your future into your own hands.

We provide Aid to Israel and they violate international law with their theft of land and settlements? Heck we give Israel weapons not just bags of flour.

They could’ve built their own ship access if they hadn’t already. they were able to get supplies and things they needed, but Hamas stole it from the people of Gaza. The occupy is always been stated in relationship to Israel. The Palestinians don’t want the Jews to exist in the world, and not inhabit the territory that belong to the Jews for over 3000 years. The prior inhabitants of Israel were the Nephilim and the Canaanites. God command the Hebrew people to destroy the Nephilim and the Canaanites because they were corrupt from the fallen angels. Read the Bible it talks about all of this in the book of Genesis. There is evidence of the Hoberew (Hebrew/Jewsish people) inhabiting this location long before the Palestinian people were ever there. They are spoken of in Egyptian writings and hieroglyphic writings. God allowed the Jews to be exiled by several other nations because of their sin and idolatry. The Bible talks about God, bringing them back to Israel from all over the other Nations, all of the wars and everything that are taking place are prophesied about as well as the end of days. The Bible is alive and prophetic. Jesus is alive and we are living in those last days that were prophesied about in The Bible.

In 2023 Jan to Oct alone they murdered over 200 Palestinians and Detained (a nice western word for taken Hostage) Thousands upon Thousands of Palestinians a good number of which are minors and women. Those that think 7-Oct was a start of a conflict either does not know history or believe the lovely fables that the backers of the Israeli state would like you to believe. It would be fantastic if Israel Surrendered and returned the stolen goods and released their hostages but unfortunately they believe they are the chosen ones and somehow better than the Palestinians and as such will live in this endless conflict that has been going on for a 100 years. Hamas' biggest success of 7-Oct is exposing the true colours of the Zionists and they have lost the respect of the entire world (except the western leaders that are on the payroll).

@@1ronin907 It is in our interest to live in a stable world, and not let bad actors like China, Russia, North Korea and Iran throw their weight around. In the 1930s, the civilized world was so appalled by the fresh memory of the mass destruction of The Great War that most people's instincts were to withdraw inward from the global scene. Winston Churchill understood the danger posed by Germany, but the masses were so desperate to avoid another war that they attempted to buy peace at any cost, including ceding the Sudetenland to Germany. It backfired terribly, of course: Feeding the shark didn't satisfy the shark, it fed its appetite for more. The result was a global war which made the first one look small by comparison. The Democrats didn't learn that lesson all too well. In the 1970s and 1980s, seeking to appease the Soviet Union as the Evil Empire expanded into unwilling target countries, the left tried to make nice with the Soviets. Thankfully, Ronald Reagan took a hard stance and, together with help from Pope John Paul II and others, helped save the free world. It is unfortunate that there are now hard leftists such as Tucker Carlson masquerading as conservatives and pushing Bernie Sanders's old 1980s' approach (in Tucker's case, lining up with Bernie not only in regards to foreign policy and "Russia First", but also in domestic policy as well, favoring heavy government intervention in the economy). That leftist approach is a proven failure. The three-step conservative stool that Ronald Reagan made famous included a muscular foreign policy, one that told the bad guys to not even _think_ of starting up with us. The Reagan approach saved the free world in his time; the fact that other countries benefited should not make anyone forget how much it turned _us_ around, saving the United States from the malaise into which Jimmy Carter's disastrous policies had placed us. Right now, thanks to some dreadful policy positions enacted by Joe Biden and supported by the likes of Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, and Candace Owens, the US looks incredibly weak. Tinpot dictators like those in Afghanistan, Russia and Iran laugh in our faces; Biden's response is to provide them with money and/or arms with which to even further target Americans with deadly attacks. For those who claim that those awful policy prescriptions are Trumpian and "America First"? No, they are not, not in the least, not even close. Trump is proud that he started no wars; let us not forget that he did so by using American strength to intimidate the malevolent characters around the world into piping down and staying in their respective lanes. As to "America First"? American weakness is not "America First"; it is far closer to "America Last". Do you feel safer now with Joe Biden in office than you did while Donald Trump occupied the Oval Office? I sure don't. Every time you hear a supposed "conservative" saying they want to reign in the military and use that money instead on domestic (read: welfare) spending, close your eyes and imagine it is 1979. Because those faux "conservatives" are pushing policies championed by Jimmy Carter, Bernie Sanders, and the rest of the far left, policies that came all too close to leaving our country in ruins.
Finally, someone did ask the correct questions about the Israel " responsibility " of helping terrorists of gasa. Applaud to this correct conversation.

Maybe not a responsibility, but they are forced to do so. Hamas made them bend the knee a few times till now. They obliterated Israel's fake image of strength and independency on October the 7th. They obliterated Israel's diplomatic relationships. They obliterated Israel's stupid assertions and non-arguments. They devastated the Israeli military. They shined light brighter than any conflict on their issues. They are returning the rule of law to that area of the world after Israel tried for decades to undermine the rule of law because of them being almost completely illegal. They are still resisting strong 7 months into the genocide. They maintained more than 80% percent of their military capabilities while Israel when full out on them. They obliterated the notion of the USA being the leaders of the world and a force for good in foreign affairs. They obliterated the notion of the USA being a democratic free country. They definitely destroyed the lie of freedom of speech and shown everyone that it is free speech as long as they accept it and tolerate it. Otherwise, its authoritarian crackdowns.

Hamas and Palestinians, you are right. And not only Oct 7th. They murdered all the Palestinian politicians after elections in 2006 that stood for developing Gaza and peace. They even filmed it and paraded them through the streets. All there for you to see. Oh yes and their leaders hiding in luxury stole billions of Aid money meant for ordinary Gazans. There is a very long list of their crimes

Whilst we are doing ‘evil’ What about America, Germany, Italy and the UK? All these countries are endorsing and aiding the genocidal behaviour of the occupying state. No country should have the right to destroy 70% of a city and kill huge numbers of innocent civilians. But they have and our governments are complicit! The most surprising part of this is the justification. That’s truly abhorrent and insults our intelligence; human shields, right to defend being the main culprits.

If help had not been supplied, Gaza would have surrendered in the first days and returned the hostages in the very first days of the war. and ultimately there would be fewer casualties. This is elementary psychology. But this help symbolizes support, and Gaza is confident that they are doing everything right

@ilanweinberg2561 Yes, of course, the US, like nearly all countries, creates their currency, and much of their debt is held by US citizens, including me. So they can pay off the debt to us citizens by simply giving us currency. Causes inflation of course. But a big piece of the US debt is held by foreign governments, foreign companies, foreign individuals. They are less likely to do so as the US debt increases. The US gets a big advantage by its currency being used and held by foreigners, and this advantage goes away as other currencies (euros, sterling, a few others) are used more outside those areas. Do you have data about the US government, or US entities holding investments abroad? I don’t think it is as big as the debt. The US has no so sovereign wealth fund, as Norway, Singapore, Saudi Arabia does. And I don’t see how US’ foreign aid, military or otherwise, helps the reserve currency status. Just to let you know, contrary to what you might see on the news, in the US, there are many of us who want to do all we can to support our Israeli brothers and sisters.
