Sure carving out that spot and sticking Israel there didn’t help things. But hardly the start It was the start of the modern day conflict. "So it is written... so it shall be done"

Seeing as how Islam has only been around since 700AD how can there be much of an ancient claim on this territory? This all comes down to a long term spat dating back generations. Unfortunately now it’s been intertwined in a holy war. 1. You guys see how stupid this is? This is not a holy war. Not by any means. The only people that are making this about religion are the Israelis with their racist laws. 2. Palestinians are Arab. Not Muslims. Some Palestinians are Christian. This has nothing to do with religion.

Do the leaders speak from both sides of their mouths, yes, but they prefer Israel over Iran. Accords...sounds like Jimmy Carter, there are no accords only historic hatred that cannot even be explained, religion (the creator of all war and evil) and money. Arabs do not hate Jews, they only follow religion teaching them. Do they prefer Iran??. Sunni or Shite? Michigan or Ohio State? Roe vs Wade? How can pro life vs pro choice after 250 yrs not come to an understanding.

Hamas wants to show the Palestinians that they can take on Israel. Netanyahu all of a sudden is going to retain power as the talks of a new coalition are no longer happening. Fatah has cancelled elections. Reporters love to report on the conflict in Gaza now that Covid is dying out. What would you rather hear about? Trans people? Or maybe dogs? Or maybe more Trump? I didn’t get banned. I tried. I was angry. I’m still pissed. Lots of morons here. Nobody answered my question. Would you classify yourself as a terrorist if someone conquered and occupied the US and you fought back? Nobody. Not a single one of you. 1 hour ago, sherpa said: And the Arab world's treatment of the "Palestinians" throughout history is another interesting subject. Only works when they are leveraged against israel. Palestinians in quotations huh? Funny. My grandfather passed away in ‘05. He was 97 years old. He must’ve been insane because he told me he’s a Palestinian. FOH. Another idiot. 50 minutes ago, SoCal Deek said: Both Israel and the United States are a convenient excuse. The real source of all of this conflict is the ongoing hatred between Sunni and Shiite inside Islam. I’m not sure how that brotherly feud can ever be settled. Good Lord

So your position is that Israel wants to expel everyone from inside their borders that isn’t Jewish? Assuming you’re right, isn’t that a de facto religious conflict? It seems like semantics. Or are you making the distinction between nationality and faith?

Tell that to all the Jews that were ethnically cleansed from Morocco, Algeria, Iran, Yemen, Iraq, Jordan, Libya to name a few. This weekend there was a very large protest in my city of about 5000 people that were mostly Moroccan, Algerian, Tunisian and Lebanese for a pro palestine protest. Guess what they were chanting, it certainly wasn't about peace. 3 minutes ago, SoCal Deek said: Thank you! Now we’re getting somewhere.

I wouldn’t call it a holy way because that’s not what the Palestinians are fighting over.

This is how it starts. They call themselves the Jewish state so I suppose they want it all for themselves. Fear may not equate to reality though.

Or are those mistranslations? Isn’t religion what all theses factions use to control their people’s minds? It’s usually never really about religion, but money and power doesn’t get people willing to die like ‘religion’ and ‘freedom’

The rest of the world is exhausted from this nonstop fighting over a little piece of land. It’s been going on our entire lives. It’s childish on so many levels but it seems like a way of life. So much so that people in that region seem just as OK with it continuing as ever really putting a stop to it.
