Indiscriminate killings of civilians by Hamas
I would condemn the indiscriminate killings of civilians by Hamas but I would also condemn Israelis occupation, illegal land grabs and constant harassment of Palestinians in their homeland.
PAP Gov condemned Russia invasion of Ukraine while ignoring the racial discrimination and persecution of Ukrainians of Russian descend, under the principle of protection of sovereign integrity.
However, PAP Gov has been muted with regards to the Israelis occupation and illegal land grabs in Palestinian land in Gaza.
Do the Palestinians have the rights to their own homeland?
We should stick to the 1967 Palestinian Resolution to demand Israel to keep to the borders determined back then and Palestine to gain full independence as a full Sovereign Nation. Up till now, Israel has refused to abide to the 1967 UN Resolution.
The decades of constant fights will not stop as long as there isn't a long term peace resolution.
The root cause of Israelis - Palestinian conflicts arises from the Colonial Rule of Great Britain. But we have to move on and set for long term peaceful resolution for this mess.

Palestine-Israel CONFLICT is more than 2000 years old.
Its in their descendants’ bloodline.
Not just a 1960s issue.
Bad blood between them.
But yes,as much as Israelites want to have a country they call their own,so do the Palestinians.
But Hamas are not just intending to have their “own land”,they are more like terrorists in their conduct.
Dangerous these Hamas.
They also want to “HABIS” Israel.
God is shaking His head watching these 2 old foes still battling after 2,000 years or more?

In war,the people from both side suffers unnecessary.
Only path to peace is to settle fairly peacefully for all people.
Better still let those military who want to fight,fight and killed among themselves and spare the civilians.
We will have peace when all these “terrorist”/military are all gone…

I support Israel because I support Abraham.
China should side with Israel too.
China should not allow itself to be made used of by Palestinians.
A Palestinian celebrity mocked the Chinese people by making squinty eyes.
Surely the children and grandchildren of China’s leaders … also look like Chinese people.
Prophet Mohammad’s relatives and companions described him as “never open eyes fully” and fair-skinned.

This is another stark example of how the cycle of violence perpetuates itself. Now, it is the Israelis turn to kill innocents trapped in the Gaza strip penal colony. When Israel was created, Jews were ‘kicked out’ of Arab Countries: Iran, Iraq, Morocco, Egypt, everywhere, etc. Many of the Arabs living in British Palestine that became Israel were told to flee by’ Arab Neighbors’ so they could attack Israel. Israel left Gaza ( funny how Egypt didn’t want it back in ’79). Now HAMAS runs Gaza ‘at gunpoint’ and want NO ISRAEL.

Is this staged by Israel to grab more land? No soldiers at a music festival, why? Both men and women are army trained so is it even possible for Hamas to be able to kill so many “civilians?” Perhaps the Israeli PM needs a distraction for his political survival. Israel has a dome and an its military is one of the best in the world. So there are other reasons why Hamas was allowed in to kill so many “civilians.” Israel should return back all land belonging to the Palestinians and live within the borders given to it in 1948.

It is not that simplistic. Back then Israel offered the Palestinians much more large swathe of land and in return asked to live side by side peacefully w them. BUT THEY REFUSED EVEN THAT GENEROUS OFFER & INSTEAD CALLED FOR THE ELIMINATION OF ISRAEL. All those countries at that time ganged up to destroy Israel but instead Israel defeated them despite being a smaller nation. The rest is history.
THE COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD THAT GIVES AID, DO NOT CONDEMN THE PALESTINIANS TERRORISM ACTIVITIES BUT GIVES $$$ TO THEM INSTEAD EMBOLDENED THE HAMAS TO COMMIT EVIL ATROCITIES AGAINST INNOCENT ISR CITIZENS ALL THESE DECADES. BABIES WERE EVEN MASSACRED IN THIS ATTACK. When babies are even massacred, do the Hamas & Palestinians in general deserve our help?!. Not at all.
Just a strip of Gaza and they dream of annihilating Isr, what if they were given swathes of bigger land they may become stronger and THEIR OBJECTIVE GOLDEN AIM IS TO GET RID OF ISRAEL. (Just like Iran stated openly for the annihilation of Israel) We cannot allow that. This is where many people fail to comprehend what real evil is, what their intent and purposes are.
One may argue “but the Palestinians people are diff from Hamas”. These people suffered bec of Hamas n Abbas the leader in gov. DO ABBAS CARE?! HE IS NOW FATTER THAN EVER BEFORE!. SO MUCH $$$!. DOES HAMAS BOTHER THEIR OWN CITIZENS SUFFERED BEC OF THEIR ACTIONS?! YOU BET NO!. Last of all, is it really so that the Palestinian “ordinary” people that innocent themselves?. Where is their decry of terrorism by Hamas against Isr citizens?! Where is their protest and solidarity to be against violent harming of Isr citizens?. Where is their protest against wrong but working for peace?. None.
It is not to say they deserved to be bombed of course. It pain the Israelis too. They take pains to avoid civilian areas, among the most humane in conforming to rightful conduct even in war. On purpose and not on purpose harming of children is simply the DIFFERENCE btw Hamas murder of children and babies & that of Israel’s in war for their own survival.

Can anyone give a rational military or political purpose for this? Israel got a warning from Egypt of potential violence three days before Hamas attack. Typically insurgencies opt for kill missions in order to demonstrate a regime’s fragility and impotence in maintaining law and order.
Hamas has certainly accomplished TWO things here. In this case Hamas has unified its enemies. It has provided Israel with justification to wage a ‘total and uninhibited war’. AND everyone now will have to huddle behind Netanyahu in the name of national unity. What a gift to him and his hard right!
Maybe we’ll think twice about the kinds of leaders and policies we support. Fear will cause rational men and women to abandon their democratic aspirations and huddle behind the “de facto dictator”.

The death toll in Gaza has “approached 1,200 and there are approximately 5,000 injured,” deputy health minister Yusuf Abu al-Reesh said on Thursday morning, claiming that most of the dead and wounded are women, children and the elderly. The Palestinian Health Ministry previously said that Gaza’s hospitals were already at full capacity amid the ongoing Israeli strikes.

Arm resistance ! Yeah ok but launched attack at innocent victims e.g. folks and foreigners attending the musical festival about unity love peace. If collateral damage , accidentally kena a few ( less than 10 or 15 ) probably still acceptable. 200 plus and the crowds do not have weapons. And then several PRCs kidnapped plus a few PRCs shot dead. One look can tell they are of different race. Still fired still kidnapped.
So China paying ransom monies ?

Balfour Declaration issued in 1917 by the British government is the disastrous stroke for the Palestinian people.
The reason why the European saw the need to create a Jewish state on Palestinian land was their determination against the Jewish people and they wanted the Jew out of their land. The massacres of of millions Jewish people by the European in Europe during second world wars is the highlight of this discrimination.
These are unforgivable sins committed by the European and they have not done any redemption.
To reciprocate the generosity of the British for the Jewish people in 1917, the UK should give up a piece of their land from their kingdom for the Palestinian people who are now suffering from immense hardship.

What Hamas did is beyond the pale of any excuse. But they are Nihilists (other than religious), who care nothing about their own lives or the lives of others, any longer. They have abandoned all Hope and entered the Gates of Hell. It’s not easy to read amidst the fury and despair caused by the attack by Hamas, and I doubt it will be heeded. But I pray that some measure of sanity, somehow, can breach the (rightful) blood-thirst in Israel right now. If we owe a moral responsibility to Israeli children, then we owe the same moral responsibility to Palestinian children. Their lives have equal weight.
The terrorist war crimes of Hamas (and Israel) are indeed unforgivable, but bear in mind that Gaza is not an independent country. Gaza is a brutally subjugated occupied territory/prison of Israel. Human Rights Watch has described Gaza as an “open air prison” because its 2.5 million inhabitants are trapped into a tiny region controlled by the overwhelming force of Israel’s military checkpoints. They cannot leave.
This action by Hamas was highly organized. I can’t help but believe that the consequence of their actions – an invasion of Gaza – was entirely anticipated by Hamas and that Israel’s current actions are fueling a strategy that’s being directed from outside Gaza. Netanyahu has been given the distraction he needs to hang on to power, and Hamas is willfully instigating a humanitarian calamity to turn world opinion against Israel and draw the Islamic world into the conflict.
I always teach that tolerance is the very hardest virtue of them all. Forget the pious nonsense about diversity and inclusion – even simple tolerance in the face of absolute evil is just brutally hard, and requires almost superhuman effort. Do any of us on the outside have a ‘right’ – to demand patience and forbearance from Israel? Not really. All we can do is -hope- that a hurting nation can somehow dig deep, try to remember its own humanity, and desist from carnage.

In a nutshell. Because of the holocaust and the refusal of many countries to allow Jews into their countries after World War Two, the Jews were given Madagascar but they wanted to return to what was Arab lands and now Israel. In 1948,the British colonial master, carved up the land and displaced millions of Palestinians who had lived in the area for centuries. Since then Israel has been inviting all the Jews in the world to return to Israel. Arab countries have been mounting attacks on Israel and after every war the Israelis expand their land bank and build on occupied lands which is against International Law. At present the Palestinians have been reduced to living in a sardine tin by the Israelis. They have no port and cannot trade.They live in poverty and are persecuted by the mighty Israel. The holocaust that was experienced by the Jews is now being implemented by the Jews against the Palestinians.
loading...
Yup. You said it perfectly.
Long story short. The ‘historical terror’ inflicted on the Jews starting with the Roman oppression of Jewish rebelliousness and then its culmination in the Holocaust. I believe, is exemplified by how Israel is treating the Palestinians, just not quite so severely YET. Germans persecuted Jews and now many Israeli Jews treat Palestinians just like their Jewish ancestry were treated by Germans. It’s a vicious cycle of evil and until it is acknowledge and broken, the cycle will continue. Hamas, and Iran, call for the destruction of Israel, and the throwing of all Jews into the sea. No ifs and or buts. What happened on Saturday was that ‘last straw’
loading...
If I remember correctly from reading the bible, the Jews are the direct descendants of God, Jesus, i.e. they are Christians.
So the Roman did unto the Jews and the Jews are now doing the same to the Palestinians (Muslims?).
So if I understand correctly, Israel (Jews) have been mistreating the Palestinians for decades and keeping them in an “open prison” and the current war is actually a revolt as enough is enough.
On a side note, the Egyptions worship the Sun, Moon and Stars anf therefore not Christians nor Muslims. Why not they absorb the Palestinians? On that note, Sinkies’s TFR also low, why not also import the Palestinians and charter a flight for them to Sinkieland so the TFR can grow, along with the GGDP? I tot the lightning loves FTs?
Is it therefore correct to say that its not about politics but a religion thingy?
loading...
Christianity succeeded Judaism, although (from what I have gleaned from my albeit limited bible reading) the distinction between Judaism and Christianity as we know it didn’t exist at the time the New Testament was written. Christ was seen–by himself and by early Christians–as *fulfilling* the promises of rather than as breaking with the Old Testament. So Jesus was a Jew, Paul was a Jew, etc. The New Testament essentially groups together Jewish followers of Christ and gentile followers of Christ.
Both Egyptians & Palestinians are practicing Sunni Muslims. So it is about politics not religion.

Hamas is Hamas
Palestinian people are Palestinian people
If Hamas is so bad as of the reports appearing in the western media, by all means do what you can to get rid of them within the framework of international law, but please spare the innocent Palestinian people from undue suffering.
In history just a few hundred years back, Palestine was a part of Ottoman Empire. The Great Britain by virtue of their superior military power, forced the Ottoman Empire to cede the land to them.
It was by the stroke of the Anglo-Saxon pen via Balfour Declaration in 1917, the land where Palestinian people had been calling home for centuries, suddenly became the land where milk and honey flowed for the Jewish people ousted by the European from Europe.
Now, the order by the Israel defence force that 1.2 million Palestinian people in Gaza city, north of Gaza Strip, should relocate themselves, within 24 hours, to the southern half of the Gaza Strip, is definitely against the international law and extremely inhumane.
Yes, to make good the wrong, the Anglo Saxon should carve out a good piece of their land from the land of today United Kingdom, in compensation for the Palestinian people who lost their land because of the Balfour Declaration.

Yes, the UK Empire left behind lots of war even when it retreated back to London.

If say like that. Why not China absorb them instead. Afterall Xi always mentioned 命运共同体 so many times. Say just for fun is it ?

Israel fascilitated water, electricity etc to Gaza. Let 18,000 Gazans to work in Israel. In turn it is reported many of these workers acted ss spies and gave information to hamas prior to hamas attk on Israel. What “plight” of the Gazans?. Israel is not mistreating them but they are mistreating themselves, causing plight to themselves. Israel even treats Syrians injured in their war when their own ignored these. There are many “arguments”, but “arguments” have to be based on facts.

The Jews were exiled nearly 2000 years ago. Up till Mark Twain’s time, he remarked the land was mostly barren, save for some “Palestinians” & some Jews leftover. The place was so terrible even the “Palestinians” welcomed back even more Jews. The Jews gradually enlivened up the land. “Palestinians” bec there was no such thing as Palestine country, these “”Palestinians” were nomads, so the land still belonged to the Jews. It was prophesied in Scriptures by the Prophets over 2000 years ago before Christ came (which the Lord Himself will also reaffirm to us in the bible) that Jews would be exiled and will return (calculated by knowledgeable people to be 1948! when Israel was “reborn”). So exact is biblical prophesy!
Jesus said when Isr is reborn (we know its 1948) His Return will be in the generation that saw Israel’s rebirth. Biblical Scriptures also said again OVER 2700 years ago, In the latter days (which Christians very well know not merely believe) is Jesus second coming, the world’s nations will “turn against Judah & DIVIDE Jerusalem. THOSE WHO CARVE UP JERUSALEM WILL THEMSELVES BE CUT TO PIECES.” These are the WORDS OF THE PROPHETS. People can read it in the bible.
(Many Jews today are descendants of the tribe of Judah. They nearly named the new state Judah but decided to call it Israel). (Lineage: Abraham then Isaac then Jacob who later changed his name to Israel. Jacob had 12 sons one of whom was Judah. From these came the 12 tribes of Israel. The Bible stated when the Lord comes he will destroy Israel’s enemies that will come against it clearly stated in the bible namely Iran, Turkey and Rosh (which some learned Christians think its Russia).
Btw nearly two thirds of the Scriptures are prophesies. ALL HAVE COME TRUE TO THE EXACT DAY N TIME!. It is now left what is to come IN OUR TIME. The Lord has two descriptions of Him in Scriptures, the Lamb, the other being The Lion of Judah. The Lord Jesus came as Lamb for us (ALL THE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD) two thousand years ago. He is coming back as the Lion of Judah to save Israel in his Second Coming. It is stated in bible, He will then abolish all world gov and rule from Jerusalem.

For those who think that this conflict will end soon need to get a brain check. As long as the US is in the picture, the war will be dragged on for as long as it can because there is money to be made by the US.
With its humongous debts, war brings money to its national coffers faster than just depending on internal taxes.
Anyone disagree?

There are some Jews who are Christians but orthodox Jews do not recognise Jesus as the Son of God and are still waiting for their Messiah. The Jews crucified Christ because they were afraid of his teachings.It was because of his crucifixion that those of us who are not Jews have become Christians. The Muslims think of Christ as a prophet. As Christians we cannot support the forced taking of lands, the killings and injustice done to the Palestinians. Christ is Peace and Love. We have to love our neighbour as ourselves.

During one of the UN assemblies, the representatives from Israel was challenged by their rivals for the basis on which they claim to have the right of land in Palestine.
The Israel representative, one hand raised with a bible, the other with its index finger pointed to the bible, said: it was all in there!
However, the chair of the assembly ruled: UN is not a place for worship, be realistic!
