This is not a nuanced post. I sympathize with her sentiments but she is historically naive. The war started in 1948 when the people of Palestine were displaced and became refugees. All of Palestine is a refugee camp and a concentration camp, half the 2 million are children. Norman Finkelstein explains the history well. Hamas was created in 2006 as controlled opposition by Bibi and the US. They immediately put a blocade on Palestine. The settlements along the border were largely created by taking away the houses and land of the Palestinians and giving them to the new residents from the US. There is a civil war going on in Israel between those who want to eliminate the Palestinians; those in Israel who recognize that there is and has been a humanitarian crisis, severe food and water shortages for the last 20 years, judicial over reach by Bibi's coalition of genocidal zealots that are risking war because of his corruption, a war largely of their own and US making. Nobody in the Middle East even wants to see Blinken, Sullivan or Nod. and are fed up with diplomatic failures by the US: Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, The Middle East and Israel governments are only talking to the Russians and the Chinese because they are the adults in the room. The world sees the US and Europe as a sick man whose lack of diplomacy in favour of hegemony for the last 70 years is a complete failure. They have been kicking this problem down the road too long.

So the fact that the U.S. is funding BOTH sides of this mess doesn't make any difference to anyone?

The US needs to stop getting involved in ancient feuds that we aren’t a part of. We need to close our borders and take care of our people and our problems. That part of the world has been burning for a long time and it is our hubris thinking we can fix it that will be our downfall. We aren’t the worlds police, not anymore.

Some people refuse to see the truth. They live in delusion all of their lives. This article is a perfect example.

It is horrible what is going on again in your country. Just one question though, how did Hamas fly there kites into Gaza with Israel’s chain of defence? Something isn’t right with your governed. It’s the same in the US and Canada and England and Germany etc

The only one that I see is Russia aka Puntin doesn’t let those evil dwellers in. So how or what happened for them to fly there junk in there and do what they did. Evil is closer than you think!!

Haganah, The Stern Gang, and Irgun are among several paramilitary groups that brought terrorism to the Middle East and the best example was the bomb that went off in the British owned King David hotel on July 22, 1946. When you take away land, drive people out of villages into concentration camps like Gaza, you should expect pressure to build up and blow off like we are now seeing. There are no good men on either side and the US is responsible for the failure to bring both parties to the table to hammer out a peaceful solution.

As an observer. I will not give a personal opinion just facts. Currently with the bioweapons leashes on humanity look who’s behind it. Fauci, Bourla, Gates, Walensky, Zuckerberg, on and on all Jewish. As well as a great many American politicians with dual citizenship with Israel. Also a leaked video now showing the Israeli army was told to stand down allowing horrific atrocities to take place. The US is now flooded with migrants.

Connect the dots.

Palestine is an open air prison with high tech surveillance. They do not have food or water without Israel’s consent. Now think about the WEF agenda.

You will own nothing , you will be surveilled 24 hours a day. They want to replace Americans with the migrants, particularly Muslim migrants.

Palestine was their pilot project.

All of us need to turn our eyes to the true enemies. Jews, Christians, Muslims need to unite against the threat against all humanity.

Go home and fight for your country. Choose a country and fight for it. Are you an America or israeli? That question should be asked of every American regardless of where your ancestors arrived. No more money for foreign nations...ever. no more dual loyalties. No more dual citizens for any nation. Choose one and know that your contrymen are your fellow citizens...not your fellow coethnics or of your same religion.

Interesting that an American with only an emotional attachment to Israel thinks Palestinians with generations of history should 'find somewhere else to live'. Israel's claim to the property is based on God telling them to kill all of the Canaanites and stealing their stuff. Still at it.

Does she realize that the "nation/state" of Israel is a globalist contstruct?

Does she realize that the Jews are only a small part of the descendants of Jacob? Does she know that MOST of the descendants of Jacob, also called Israel, were from ten OTHER tribes? They are not Jews.

They are Israelites. Not all Israelites are Jews. There are HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of Israelites living today in many countries in the world, specifically America, Canada, Western Europe, Australia,

I am one. I am not Jewish.

But there is a concept of a "spiritual Jew" to those who accepted the Messiah. The Jews unfortunately rejected their Messiah, and are deceived by the globalists using the State of Israel in the middle east as something it is not.

Excellent, heartfelt, honest article. Thank you. The world is in the midst of an historical battle between good and evil. There are metaphysical forces in play and it is up to good people to resist, stand up and fight this evil on all fronts, including the false, hateful, often evil and obsessive, propaganda. Israel, a tiny strip of land with nine million people, seven million who are Jews, who want nothing more than to be left alone. They are surrounded by more than 300 million people who hate them for no other reason than they are Jews, falsely maligned and persecuted, who are now leading this fight. God bless Israel.

Beautifully written but the facts remain...Israel is surrounded by its enemies. The sky, water, soil do not = home. Rather our hOMe is where safety and sanity exists. If we look at world (macro level) through the lens of our experience (micro level) we see obvious but painful solutions. When my best friend's brother stalked me and broke into my home numerous times (CTE) and threatened my life even after the judge told him 'Not 50 miles from this town", I was forced to leave my home and the city I grew up, family and friends and tell only my family of my whereabouts.When my abusive husband (a doc abusing drugs) was beyond living with for safety and sanity for myself and my sons, I was forced to leave MY dream home (a home only possible by the $ support of my parents) and FLEE. When my now husband was married to a woman who cheated on him and forced him out of a family HOME that was passed on to HIM and took his children through alienation syndrome, should he have fought her or just leave so that his children wouldn't be traumatized through years of fighting. When a family are victims of atrocities like a child being kidnapped and chopped into pieces with DNA confirming the murder, but they are still forced to sit in a court room day in and day out, rather than exact revenge that understandably burns in their hearts, we see that on a micro level we are forced into civilization. If we each personally acted on all the injustices we face in life by killing those who have wronged us (often evil) and bombing the neighborhood they live in, where would we be now? Israel for all its RIGHT to home must face the fact that the deep and twisted road of the wrongs of the past..theirs (there are some) and their enemies (there are many) will NEVER be untangled. They are a relatively small population surrounded by insanely large population that doesn't share their world view. Should the entire planet now risk being dragged into a world war (as 'Never Again' is really a WAR cry) when the clear answer is to move out of enemy territory and relocate? Logic tells you that when if/when a person or a group insist on holding on to a location to the point of death, not just for their families but putting millions at risk in the world as their fight entangles us all, they are not critical thinkers at best and at worse, religious zealots, sentimental fools, barbaric idiots or a combination of the three. There are places in the world, large islands and beautiful lush lands that the Israel state can relocate to. If there is a question of how long it will take to move 9 million people think of the money available by reallocating war funding and calling on peace-loving nations to contribute to end the madness. You only need to look at the so-called unsupported raid on the US border to see how many people can be relocated WITHOUT legitimate resources. In under a decade the new state of Israel will flourish when energy and money is spent building not fighting. Again, what side caused the problem it is no longer the issue. This is a centuries old tit for tat which has become a scrambled, dangerously divisive nightmare...which is currently pitting the world against each other as sides are chosen. The only 'who' that matters are the ones calling to design a way to a SANE solution. Any talk or action that divides... mostly clueless populations who couldn't pass a 10 question quiz on the issues, yet now scream 'KILL THEM ALL' , will bring the world to its knees if they are allowed to call the shots. You are not allowed seek revenge of death for wrongs done to you personally (you go to jail!) nations should not be allowed to do so either.
