Coming from you that is not unlikely I suppose.
If you were worried about the Palestinians future..:: would it make sense for them to
reject Hamas' destructive behavior on behalf of Tehran
and instead make a deal of peace and recognition with Tel Aviv
so that soon after the whole Gaza strip could blossom with tourism and a good future.
Maybe, perhaps.

My only guess is that this person is trying his utmost to impress a male/female(who knows) that are reading the blogs literally with him or maybe that girl he blogged about that broke a bone. Not sure which but trying to attract attention is a definite.
My sympathy with all involved in Israel and Gaza. This could add to an already upside down troubled world

I can to some degree understand that once apon a time the majority elected Hamas... okay bygonnes are bygonnes. But when will the population of Gaza stop accepting these thugs as their gangster "leaders". The situations is not so extremely different to that of Kiev. Basically don't give a ratz a** about their own pop.
No, retaliation against HAMAS (not the pop in Gaza that is being used as human shield) is in place!
Horrific shit what they did, very upsetting. 500 dead Israelis and planty civilian Woman kidnapped into Gaza; guess what will happen to them there.
Now soon the army will go in and drag them out of their rat holes one by one.
I hope their punishment will be proper.

This is "slightly rough stuff" right here- be warned.
It reminds me of the Paris terror.

I don’t have the answers Grand...
But...it is quite obvious that Iran is behind this...
Particularly...with the talks going on with Saudi Arabia...
I saw pictures of your Palestine children with guns..
So, sad that this is acceptable for children.

And as always, civilians paying the price.
This is straight up murder on young ones partying on a beach.
Doesn't get much worse than that.
Mum & dad with children as well as the elderly taken is abhorrent as those whom were murdered
My way of thinking is Israel as well as the west bred these terrorists.
2.4 million people huddled in squalor on 40 kilometers of land being dictated to by Israel yet the west always back Israels treatment of the Palestinians.
My opinion is Israel are just as much terrorists as is Hezbollah
Israel have cut off electricity as well as the internet
Israel have said the Gaza strip will be nothing but an island
Israel have told the Palestinians to get out
Egypt have their border blocking Palestine.
Palestinians. civilians are trapped in a cardboard box with nowhere to flee
As in all wars the Palestine civillians will pay a very deadly price as did Israel civilians
It sure would be nice if there could be a peaceful solution..
But, it can’t now..they have to get the hostages back..and secure their borders..
Just as when we left Afghanistan...our intentions was to give them a better life...with freedom and woman rights...
Now, those women who had a taste of equality..have lost what they had...
Honestly, it haunted me for weeks...that they lost most of the few freedoms they had.
The western powers have never done anything about Israel it's like the west is scare of Israel, it must be Izzies nuclear capabilities that the western powers fear...

Turns out many Americans were taken hostage by Hezbollah

There was barbed wire over these homes on the Gaza strip
I saw Israeli soldiers standing above these homes throwing cans as well as spitting at young children playing outside their homes I saw all sorts of nastiness aimed at the Palestine children
I will bet my house that these terrorists called Hezbollah were once those same children being spat at & taunted by Israel children
I can't understand why governments of the world think it's acceptable for another country to force human beings to live like sardines as well as being controlled by another country called Israel
In the first video I posted the Israeli commander say clearly it's not the civilian Palistinians they are after now. Hamas only. Nobody wants hardship for Palistinians, even if they must bear some responsibility for voting in Hamas.

Hamas have taken 30 hostages including Americans spread out underground
The civillians are going to pay the price
Now Israel needs to defend themselves here and go hard, very hard after the enemy.
Sorry to say.

The civilians on the Gaza strip are looked at as trash hence why people accept Palestinians living ,in shit conditions & being dictated to by another country
Imagine America doing the same to Canada
I have no sympathy for Israel. Or the idiots in the US who kiss up all the time. Sow the dragons teeth and reap the hell.

Should they not continue doing that or you want them pushed out "back home" into Gaza + the West Bank?
Here is the problem: Hamas is basically paid by Iran to oppose being a peaceful neighbor to Israel. A huge mistake cos if they stopped that; after 48 hours Tel Aviv would be their most eager backer of growth. And it would be an instant tourist hit too regarding all the people who'd love to go to Gaza soon to lay on a beach there provided the place was secure and open for business.

It's a bloody patch of nothing
The Israeli's & Palestinians use to live side by side In fact there are many families on both sides of the fence whom are very very close & whom hate being separated from their friends through no fault of their own
Once upon a time Israel had weapons given to them by the west whilst the poor Palestinians had bloody rocks for weapons Once upon a time the Palestinians pleaded with the West for help to no avail.
Iran are using the Hamas for their own agenda much like Trump does with his cult for his own agenda
If the West had of been fair to those Palestinians instead of siding for so many years with Israel the Palestinians wouldn't of bothered getting help from Iran They were desperate & now Hamas has been brainwashed into doing Irans dirty work
We now have around 130 or more hostages including Americans
Americans have been killed
America is sending aide to Israel which is fair
Thing is no aide being sent to whats left of hospitals on the Gaza strip
If they had things would have gotten better over night.

Go back in time & history Educate yourself about real facts & what truly belongs to Palestine including what Trump removed & gave to Israel when he was in office
Then again I suppose you would be fine if for example France Switzerland Austria & Slovenia cut you off from their borders taking your land whilst squeezing Italy to a patch of land that consisted of 40 kilometres of land stripping you of human rights & democracy Taking your dignity your land & having their armed forces taunt your family whilst having you under surveillance. 24/7
IDF soldier that was at the small military base that was taken by the Palestinians, said that they were all ordered to stand down and let the base be over run..
Speculation is also come out about where HAMAS got all their rockets from, and Ukrainian pres Zelensky is being fingered for the supply of rockets to HAMAS.. Which is no surprise knowing all the weapons that were sent to the Ukraine, HAMAS is putting up a better show than the Ukraine so far..
I thought it suspect that the most harshly restricted/sanctioned people in the world could get hold of so many rockets, the Palestinians have to tunnel their weapons into Gaza and the West Bank so maybe a few truck loads of weapons were over looked by the IDF border guards at some time..

Israel was too complacent, they were caught totally unawares. They can thank God that they have the iron dome system otherwise many many more lives would've been lost.

Has been talk that the reason why intelligence never picked up on any of this was because phones nor computers were used It's as if they planned this without using technology as they once did 50 years ago
They have also found many tunnels that were used to infiltrate besides air & sea
There is no way Zelensky had anything to do with this atrocity as he's been going through the same shit for months Zelensky needs every weapon he can muster for his own country
So anyway, I figured either CS was in shock, or some were awaiting instruction. So I posted a speculation about future land values inside Gaza City. I am utterly amazed that some view an obvious truth about the value of that real estate in a week or so as being either pro or con the event itself.
As was utterly obvious would happen Israel is leveling the place and the Prime Minister voiced intent to make it all rubble as anyone with half a brain knew he would have to if he wants to be re-elected and not thrown out of office as a traitor. Attacked people usually want revenge. That it cuts both ways is irrelevant. He with the most bombs will decide the outcome.
The attack was very well planned and involved years of preparation. There are now almost as many structures underneath Gaza City as there are above ground. Some time ago Hamas negotiated with Israel to iissue many more worker Visas so workers from Gaza could work daily inside Israel. Iarael agreed and Hamas fighters became daily visitors to Israel as migrant workers. Collecting Intel with each approved visit. Some of the Hamas tunnels into Gaza and loading bays inside and underneath are large enough for trucks full of rockets to pass through, and they did. Body cam(!) footage from Hamas fighters shows most of them have Russian built AKM rifles. I have yet to spot footage showing any Hamas with western built M15s.or M4s. A video of a not exploded missile that landed as a dud shows it came from Russia (surprise, surprise). So maybe when Russia says their hands are clean, the reality is their hands are dripping with blood. Hamas is controlled by Iran and doesn't even go to the toilet if someone in Iran doesn't authorize it.
Gaza City is a prison guarded by Israel and Egypt. There are beaches but the Israieli Navy patrols them and searches or sinks boats it is suspicious of. They allow some food and goods to enter, but also deny entry to a lot of it. It has been that way for more than a decade. Both Israel and Egypt restrict who can enter or leave the City.
The conflict is now basically one sided. Most of the Hamas fighters who revealed themselves 3 days ago inside Israel are now already dead, or in hiding. The Iaraeli Air Force has lots of bombs as Gaza City is now learning. The US is shipping them more bombs and artillery shells. Many people, of ALL nationalities are now dead or maimed or just wounded. Over 700 people were captured and dragged into Gaza in the (probably mistaken) belief that their presence will prevent Israel from bombing or shelling things insiide Gaza City.
In terms of benefitting the people of Gaza City this invassion was a horrific mistake. Many upon whom Israel will drop bombs and artillery shells had no advance knowledge about any of it. There is no way to tell if a man or woman or 10 year old ever held a gun, so Israeli soldiers will not discriminate as they move forward. Tehran doesn't give a sh*t. Their Ayatollah cares as little about them as Putin does about dead Russian Jews who immigrated to Israel. Not one iota.
Also meanwhile a US Navy fleet including a large aircraft carrier is approaching Israel with instructions to use US Marines to evacuate any Americans who want to leave. There will probably be other mission instructions just like there were when we did similar things in Lebanon back in the 60s and 70s.
Things are heating up and will probably get more interesting as more nations get involved. After checking your fallout shelter supplies, grab your popcorn and settle back to watch.
It is interesting to note that Hamas had been making good use of bomb carrying aerial drones in the early hours of the invasion and several Israeli Merkava tanks were taken out by drones. Apparently the army of Israel had not taken drone defence into their planning of tactics. We should expect many more incidents involving drones being used by both sides as we see daily inside Ukraine. Although drones are effective in the day, when equipped with FLIR and IR cameras they become postitvely, scary, deadly weapons at night. Virtually invisible in the night sky they become true visions of death from above. I would not want to be an infantry fighter in a drone filled environment.
Your heart seems very cold though.

Some US politicians do believe that it is Zelensky's arms deals that are responsible for the number of weapons Hamas has...
The comedian Ukraine pres Zelensky was offering a week or so ago to attack and bomb Iranian drone factories in Syria, i'm sure Israel has been doing this since 2018..
We have to remember that the Israeli people have been protesting most of the year about Netanyahu's attempt to take control of the Israeli courts, this rally against the Palestinian people will strengthen Netanyahu's argument to have full control..
All these “reasons” for new bloodshed - Israel’s constant genocide against the inhabitants of Gaza (which has not happened since 2005) - are just reasons, of course.
The murder of Jews is desired by this dark, robbed crowd, incited by a cunning thief, and Jews will be killed at the first opportunity, with or without a reason - simply because they are Jews, under the “equidistance” of the f*cking world. The childhood hope that the Holocaust taught humanity something has long been replaced in me by cold despair, contempt and a demand for strength and courage (at least, the courage to accept this state of affairs).
I regret that I’m not in Israel now: on days like these I want to be there. every Israeli accepts hatred and the fate of potential victimhood simply by virtue of his birth or citizenship. And this cannot be changed.
Well, a separate topic, of course, is the partnership between Putin’s Russia and Hamas. And this fact already says a lot about those people on this blog who supported the war in Israel

In reality it is just because they are Jews...The brutality and posting their killings on social media so their families would see it...so, incredibly cruel.
I can’t fathom how any human can do these kind of things to another human...
Victim blaming has become the norm for so many things these days..
