Had Israelis not revealed their true selves, then your hasbara might stand a better chance of deceiving me @fuller
From their actions it's quite clear that, for Israeli Zionists, "chosen people" is an expression of racial superiority. Zionist Israel has far less in common with Judaism than it does with Nazism.
The Bible teaches that the Jews are to a Light upon the nations, not to rule over the nations. Zionism is about the right of the Jews to live in peace in their ancient homeland. On the other hand, Islam is all about preaching the supremacy of Muslims (Surah 98:6 calls all non-Muslims the worst of creatures: https://quran.com/en/al-bayyinah/6 ) & subjugating the world to Islam:
There can be no peace as long as the doctrine of Jihad remains in effect. Gaza is living proof that any Palestinian state would only be used as a base from which to attack Israel.
That wall was only built because of ongoing attacks from Gaza, and Oct. 7th proved why it's necessary. Egypt also built a wall along their border with Gaza for the same reason.
There was no agreement close to being made in 2008. Not only was that offer rejected, but PA leadership never even made a counter offer. Besides, Jihadists are notorious for breaking treaties.
Yes, and Arafat was telling Arab nations right after the Accords that the agreement was only a temporary means to an end. He never had any intention of making peace. He was simply changing his tactics.
Quite a few nations don't like Palestinian terrorists. Jordan kicked them out in 1970 because they tried to take over. Egypt doesn't want them cause they're allies with the Muslim Brotherhood. In Lebanon they helped plunge the nation into Civil War, & in Kuwait they supported Saddam when he invaded, so they kicked them out after he was ousted.
So why is it OK for 2 million Arabs to live on one side of the 1949 line, but unacceptable for any Jews to live on the other side? There was no peace before the settlements, so what makes you think there will be peace when they're gone? Israel evacuated over 10,000 settlers from Gaza in 2005, but things didn't get better, it just got worse.
1-Isreal has no defined borders because their enemies refused to acknowledge the right of their state to exist.
2-Israel did not build a wall around Gaza until after Hamas turned it into a terrorist base, & Oct. 7th proves why it's necessary, because Hamas is in a constant state of war against Israel
3-Israel controls what goes it and goes out because even with these controls Hamas stockpiled huge amounts of weapons & stole aid to build terror tunnels, which they used to slaughter over 1200 Israelis.
Israel did not cultivate Hamas. At the time the PLO was simply an umbrella organization for numerous Palestinian terror groups. Israel at times didn't know which one posed the more serious threat, but they didn't promote one over the other.
No, Sharon withdrew to try and show Israel's willingness to make concessions. They pulled out of Gaza & even left their businesses behind for the Arabs to use for themselves. All they asked for in exchange was peace. Hamas simply burned the businesses & chose war.
If Israel wanted to destroy all of Gaza, they'd have done it long ago. They're the only nation who offered any land to create a Palestinian state. When Jordan controlled the West Bank & Egypt controlled Gaza, neither nation offered any land to the Palestinians.
The settlers weren't in Gaza until after 1967 when Israel took over the region during their war with Egypt. Prior to then, Egypt controlled Gaza from 1949-1967 and during that time, there were not settlers, yet Fedayeen terrorist attacks were still being carried out against Israel from Gaza. So no, it's not a lie.
The 1967 Cease-fire Line was never an official border between two nations, and during this time, Gaza & the West Bank were not part of a "Palestinian nation." They were territories occupied by two different Arab nations.
There was an Israeli occupation of the region from 1967-2005. During that time 10,000 settlers lived there, many of whom opened businesses that employed thousands of Gazans who were previously unemployed. During this time it was unknown what would happen to this region. When the 1993 Accord was signed, Israel began withdrawing from the region, which they completed in 2005.
Furthermore, no agreed upon border as ever been established. From 1949-1967 there was not a single Jew in Gaza or the West Bank, yet Jihadist terror attacks were ongoing then, as they are now. So there has never been peace, settlers or no settlers.
Israel did not attack Palestinian territories because no nation called Palestine ever existed, & no final boundaries agreed upon. Israel was continually being attacked, and they took those territories in a defensive war. They repeatedly offered land back for peace, and were always rejected.
By your logic, nations like Turkey, China & Iran should be walled in due to Iranian proxies attacking territories in other nations, China occupying Tibet, & Turkey for illegally invading Cyprus (not a disputed territory but a sovereign nation) and holding territories that previously belonged to Armenians, Greeks, & Kurds. May I add China & Turkey offered nothing to these people.
What you're saying is a baseless myth. Palestinians are the original inhabitants of the land, and so they where when European colonial migration started in the early XX Century. Defending your land and trying to curtail colonial migration, a migration that has for goal to impoverish you and your community to move them out, can't be called "ethnic cleansing". Get out of here.
Third, most of the 700,000 Arabs who left during the 1948 War did so because the Arab leaders told them to so they could get their militaries through and drive the Jewish people out, as this former PLO sniper (whom I met personally) explains in his memoir, and has also been stated by Arab leaders for decades:
Areas are fenced off in the West Bank to prevent terrorist attacks. Are you aware that if Jews go to Arab sections in the West Bank, like Ramallah, they'd be killed on sight? Why is it OK for over 2 million Arabs to live on one side of the 1949 line, but it's completely unacceptable for any Jews to live on the other side of the 1949 line?
