I answered here: Thats not what Israel want to do. See Israel's far reaching pragmatic steps in the last 5 years including the billion of dollars invested in a smart fence and all of that to avoid unecessary wars in all cost. The rest: I understand you feel pain from the situation, and I agree with you that Israel policy with the settlements is part of the problem, and also the overall relation and behaviour to the palestinians have to improve. But I don't agree with 90% of the critisizm about this war because of the explanation I linked to.

Almost every country started its life with an occupation. But only Israel is blamed for that. Sorry I don't buy it. The answer to that you will have to find in psychology and spirituality books, not in history. You could be fair and critisize the settlement in a constructive way.

Partially. You just now dumped the responsibility fully on Israel, because then you don't need to understand its perspective any more. Again, hamas ideology has deeper roots been expressed also in 1920s and 1930s before Israel was established, But even if I go with you and say theoretically this is "only" israel's fault (whats wrong but say for a moment it is)... Do you expect Israel a tier 2 understanding and then attacks Israel and let it be thrown under the bus because it failed to understand the situation to a tier 2 level? It is interesting, there are other societies you hold to such high standarts? or this is the case only when it comes to Israel? Can you see how much this is a clever defence mechanism against any possibility of really listening to Israel's perspective?

You are enormously underestimate the survival position Israel is found in. This is not only the physical survival as much as its identity survival according to the feeling and knowing we are so much better than those terorrists as we holds our values too, but when your friends and family who hold similar values don't believe you, and you have to prove them all when the virus took over you made them believe him(!) again and again. Dont take this words in a strict logical way but as an emotional metaphor to show the existential psychological serious crisis Israel is found in which is very real, and not less painful than if it was only a physical one. Then you will be in a position to understand better why her brakes are looser now against this virus (hamas).

Not a mature source. Such hateful and dark. Show me something serious and deeper that doesn't fueled by hate and not that transparent.

~50% of Israelis hate him and oppose his over nationalistic world view at least this is the impression I have got. They are already above that level.

From where is that? AJ doesnt count a decent source in my opinion.

Because evacuated northern Israel residents refuse to return to their homes until Hezbollah's Radwan force will be pushed away to northward of Litani river. And they are right. They don't want another 7.10 to happen. And yes, if radwan will be pushed northward diplomaticaly it will be the best way, but I doubt it can happen without force.

@_Archangel_ And you lack the experience of living in Israel for 36 years knowing its thinking pattern way (w-a-y) better than you. Thats why I feel such an Injustice in how we are viewed abroad and also here and how different is from reality. Never said Israel doesn't make the problem worse with bad strategies, but in the macro level the amount of how the picture is distorted is enormous and I could not just stay quiet in front of that. Think however you want anyway.

@Danioover9000 Your last paragraph is your deffense mechanism against a powerful claim that doesn't blame only Israel. If you are fair you have to add Jewsphobia to the rules at the same exact way. How do you want me to talk about origin of Ideologies while be politicly correct? Then Suggest to me another way to say that and I will change the wording, but I cannot not saying an important part of the truth just because of pc. This doesnt mean any muslim thinks that because that is not what I said, but the origin of these extreme ideologies came from that thinking.

A little harder but would not solve the problem. I'm for that anyway. Massacres of Arab against Jews happend long before any occupation during 1920s and 1930s. In Quran its written that Islam is the only legitimate religion, and other religions can live under Islam as inferiors and only according to Sharia laws. To think Israel is the root of the problem is foolishness. See the terror in europe, the terror groups of arabs do to one another too in the same brutality.

@_Archangel_ Trying to understand the reality of Israel and the conflict through mathematics of words and terms, without zooming out to see the bigger context, is precisely what the best lies are made of. See my answer to @zazen above which in I explained what I personally think. What you did is like to collect puzzle pieces that seems to connect physically but when you zoom out there is no picture created because you connected it wrong.

@Karmadhi Again, when you have 10,000s terror targets to attack, you cannot think every single time how to hit only the terrorists, even if you try your best, it is unrealistic, and given the virus clever strategies to disguise itself to healthy cells and use them as his hosts as its only possible strategy to survive. In this situation, more loose attacks will indeed happen. I am not trying to pretend the war is clean from any side because its not possible to fight clean with this kind of virus. However to equate the two sides is uttetly rediculous. The difference in values, education, thinking, intentions, motivations, goals... night and day difference. In the root this is not because what Israel did in the past but Israel made this worse you are right. Hezbollah in Lebanon for example holds the exact same ideology and intention, but it is not palestinian, it is a direct Iran's proxy formed in the help of IRGC and isn't occupied by anyone and antyhing.

@Karmadhi Sorry but there is no symmetry and no comparison at all between one side does torture and killing intentionally than other side who was never meant to initiate any war like this unless being provoked severely, and has, as I said before, to deal with a parasital virus who use healthy cells as his hosts to survive and nothing will change that fact. The details as tragic as they are cannot be seen out of the bigger context. If the world will start to talk also about the abuse, tyranni and brainwhashing Gazans children are already go through under hamas's cult leaving them no decent life or future anyway even before the war, then a deep discussion can be done. And any comparison between nazis and a war happened in 1948 is a jock and jock is an understatement.

Raping, butching, kidnap, killing babies, burn babies, killing children in their beds... sounds to you as a self deffense? Do you have a better way to deal with 40,000 terrorist parasite viruses hiding behind healthy cells as their only possible strategy to survive and reproduce? Do you think the fear of being killed in captive in any moment is really comparable to being prisoned in surely much better conditions with no life threat at all? I don't like Israel arrests children from time to time but It is really a serious comparison between the cases? How did Italy get formed? In a clean way? How did Greece get formed if not by some sort of war when one side was probably more dominant than the other? How did France? Cyprus? Egypt? USA? England? Do you know a country that didn't get formed through occupation? The Jews agreed to UN plan but the Arabs didn't and started the war and almost won, until the Jews decided to change their strategy from mainly deffense to attack.

This is just amazing . They have hanukkah and christmas at the same month?? Dreamyy 🎄🎁 You are the most multicultural family and friends I have heard like really. understandable. Me too. 🤣🤣😂🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️ True I know that too. Absolutely. Sorry to hear how did it affected you? Just an hour ago I heard that a guy I know from age 8 (was one grade above me) was killed in Gaza operation. Shocking.

I am not surprised from the answer (; Wrote you also above. Good night.

Actually it was interesting to read! Tommorow I will read it again fresh.

@Karmadhi Not going to respond to the second toxic laughable link. An attempt to draw symmetry between barbaric dark medieval organization and a self deffense operation cannot be taken seriously. About the first one I admit there are very likely problems in the surgicality claims that although I believe IDF is the maybe most surgical army in the world, is still not really totally surgical and sometimes attacks too loosely. In the other hand, we have to ask ourselves honestly if we could really do a more surgical war when needed to eliminate a terror organization that hides so manipulatively behind civilians as its number one survival strategy when we have tens of thousands of terror targets to attack! Not sure if we really could do it otherwise. Just think about that for yourself! @Lila9 I want to read once again what you wrote and to respond tommorow in length. I must go to sleep right now I really tired.

Are you anxious about that? Logical explanation doesn't help when it comes to ocd for example but I don't know if this is the case with you.

I can really understand. All good. From the name I guess you are an Israeli arab? And nice to hear. I am also Israeli from birth. This is so amazing to see how much differently Israel society is grasped abroad than the reality I live in here. not gonna lie too this is not easy.

Omg They lie as often as they breath. Their propaganda is anything but innocent. But Israel is too far behind in its ability to fill the gap and exposing those lies. This is frustrating. I edited the message before you saw it 😶‍🌫️ I asked from where are you?

I think the women won't be punished because of the fairly naive situation. But yes this is a problem Gazans face and they are so scared to tell authentic feeling against hamas especially in public, but there are such voices in the last days starting to appear. @Lila9 From where are you? Happy 4th candle🕯

Oh I didn't realize its actually candies for terror attack celebrations! 🍡🍬🧨🚀🔥 What an immoral soldiers 😒😄 No this is so bad I must balanced it out with some good news....

@zazen You are creating toxic and dangerous symmetry betweem both sides which has nothing to do with the truth. I can admit many problems Israel has and need to take responisibility to, but I can't agree to participate in a symmetry game. A serious discussion cannot be done by a cherry picking stratrgy of extremist claims creating a fake map of symmetry between an uttely cruel side who honor death in its essense ("Shuhada"/"Shaid") and way of life and education, and a side who honor life. And if you think its a childish cliche, ask the Gazans activists who appeal to hamas and they will proudly say to you the exact same thing. This is real even if hard to believe.
