I don't like to see people being shot unnecessarily by troops and neither do most people. Israel has played into the hands of Hamas by giving them an opportunity to play the victim card and sadly, those scumbags are happy to let Palestinians die in a fight they cannot win. What would you do?

Just as the Arab countries have pushed out other religions and the Jews Israel is going to push out the Palestinians. There is no justice in any of it because there is no justice to 'might is right'. You just get 'might is right' and self interest. Just as people don't comment on how all these Arab countries were unjust.....as in they were formally Christian with Jews but are now near totally Islamic. No doubt this came with much miserly....but it was before the TV age. The Arab nations went to war three times and lost three times. We could get an Iranian war or another conflict....but Israel have massive nuclear stocks. So really they have a lot of angles covered. Perhaps Iran think that also going nuclear means that they can cancel that risk out and win via military invasion. Gaza will be tricky for Israel but the West Bank is well on the way. This is obviously what they are doing.

The solution would be for the world to sanction Israel until they behave. They are the scum of the democratic nations.

Essentially it comes down to IQ. The average IQ of Jews is significantly higher than that of Arabs and that along with their good integration abilities has meant that they have gained many positions of influence within American society....the most powerful nation on earth. The Jews don't feck about and they are far from stupid. Unfortunately, in general, the same can't be said....so much...for their opponents. The real world has nothing to do with fairness at all. Countries or indeed continents that stand still get left behind.

There are always two sides to every story.

As with most things, this is not a black and white situation.

Here's my thoughts on the direction of travel.....though it might take a couple of decades....longer if the right in Israel are voted out. Israel is going to continue taking all of the West Bank and building settlements. Then when that's complete there will be a long period of making life even tougher and overtly encouraging the Gazan Palestinians to leave....Then after Israel has dotted the i's and T's it will invade Gaza on some pretext, either valid or invalid and kill or arrest everyone. That's going to be very bloody on both sides, especially Palestinians. Then I'd imagine the Palestinians will be kept in many large concentration camps until they are deported to an Arab country willing to have them. I wouldn't be surprised if this is the end game.
