Of course it's supposition. But we've fought wars before and won. My supposition is based on historical information. We know how to win. So does Israel. But there are a lot of squeamish folks who don't want to do what is necessary. They want to pretend that way can be neat and tidy and no one has to get their hands dirty. We'll all just play a nice easy comfortable war where we'll just criticize the good guys when they step out of line when trying to kill the bad guys.
8000+ dead Gazans is not enough for you then? This is so when Hamas is not destroyed you can write Israel wasn't hard enough. Would killing every Gazan make you happy?

In the meantime, 20% of Israel is Arab. How many Jews live in Gaza..? Not a single one.!
Israel evacuated (or evicted) the Israeli settlers from the region.

In 2005, 21 Israeli settlements in the Gaza Strip were unilaterally dismantled and Israeli settlers and army evacuated from inside the Gaza Strip.
The settlers who refused to accept government compensation packages and voluntarily vacate their homes prior to the 15 August 2005 deadline were evicted by Israeli security forces over a period of several days.

This fact proves that it is the Arab Palestinians, in Gaza, who are the true apartheid regime.
Who evicted the Jews from Gaza?

If some Christians were not morally confused because of the name "Israel" they know from the Bible and if it happened somewhere else or under a different "marketing" name, I think they would not be so much for killing of civilians.

But because its Israel, they must be the good guys even if they do evil. Secular names become more important than the teachings of Christ.

The same applies also in a reversed order. "Lets forget about Palestinians being tortured and killed by Zionists and lets focus on history" is also wrong.

Did you know that Israeli soldiers were breaking arms of Palestinians with large stones? Did you know that 700,000 Palestinians were put in jails? Did you know that Israel keeps currently about 250 children in prisons?
You know this how?

As the Israel-Hamas conflict enters its fourth week, crossings remain shut to Palestinians trying to flee. Those who hold dual citizenship feel like they've been abandoned, while relatives outside Gaza are helpless.

Again...the barbed wire hasn't prevented them from acquiring military hardware....it's just all offensive instead of defensive.
A better question would be to ask whether the barbed wire, bombed out airport and etc added to reasons why they would want to take up arms
As for "barbed wire making them fanatics"....obviously you're aware that Palestinians were buying explosives to murder innocent Israeli citizens long before any barbed wire was put up.
Yes, there have been problems since people were forced out of their lands. Rather than fixing the root causes of those problems new bombings and cruelties have been added to the old. The result is more and more terror.
Your theory was goof for a laugh but Palestinians were murderous, bigoted, anti-semitic fanatics before their imports were restricted so you're just wrong.
In other words they tried to fight back?
They choose to attempt to murder innocent Israelis over feeding their own people hundreds of times a year.
Maybe some felt life was more than bread. Justice and freedom are things people yearn for also.
I have sympathy for such a hateful bigoted people. They were given an option to have a free and peaceful state many times....they've consistently rejected it.
One might ask if Israel accepted such deals? I seem to remember Rabin tried, and had a bad ending.
Israel has an obligation to defend its people.
As do all nations. That does not mean targeting civilians.
They also have a democracy and politicians who sit and do nothing while their people are ruthlessly murdered don't get elected.
Prison camps do have their problems
Why don't you think the Palestinians should stay home if they cannot target the "criminals"?
I do. Terrorism on any side is evil. So how do you stop that? I would imagine that addressing the problems rather than compounding them might be a strategy. The problem now is that people who had lands taken from them want to return and nations surrounding Israel are fed up with having to take multitudes of refugees. So what the bible says must happen, Israel will be surrounded by armies. They will need to turn to God to survive. They only get that message after more than 2/3 of them have already been killed in the future. So that is what we are heading for there. There is no other way than to believe for Israel. Only God can help them
Why do you hold one standard for the jews and another for Muslims?
I don't. We all need Jesus! And, for all nations, terrorism is wrong.

There government (Hamas) should have used some of their money to provide those resources instead of spending it all to try to kill Jews
People use money as they feel they need to. Why would a prison territory feel a need to buy arms? Perhaps they do not trust leaving things up to the mercy of their captors is the best option?

Yes Hamas prevented civilians from leaving
So did Israel. They bombed the only crossing to Egypt and the other crossings are not an option for escape are they? The airport was bombed years ago by Israel. The sea controlled. So the people in that virtual prison city did not have real options/. Fleeing convoys were attacked. Bombs falling all the time etc

The road from the top part of Gaza to the tip saw only 1 bomb? Proof? When convoys are attacked with many killed while fleeing how was that safe? I would think there is no excuse for such terrorist 'warnings'
Hamas is quite willing to kill civilians in Gaza, this is nothing new. I think United Nations troops should protect the civilians from Hamas. They should be able to go south to get humanitarian aid. Troops from Jordan and Egypt could volunteer.

There is and has been evil in both Israel and Palestine leadership that is causing innocence people to die. Israel leadership wants to completely remove the people of Gaza from their land. The Palestinians have the West Bank to live and that is enough. It's about land grabbing! God has not given Israel permission to go in and kill innocence people just has He did not give Hamas permission to kill innocence people. I thought that President Biden would be bigger than this and stand for what is right. Thou shalt not kill!!! Thou shalt not bare false witness against thy neighbor!!!
1 John 4:20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
1 John 4:7-8 7Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
So I ask? Who are these people that are leading all this death and destruction? If the United States of America really wanted to show the world that we are a Christ like nation, then we would tell Israel that we are going in to get the people of Gaza out and dare Israel to do anything about it! Then we would not show impartially against the Palestinians but provide the same kind of support that we give to Israel!

Israel Hamas war: Civil order 'breaks down' in Gaza as strikes damage hospital and death toll rises​

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) has announced that Israeli strikes on Sunday damaged sections in the packed Al-Quds Hospital in Gaza City, after receiving two phone calls from the Israeli military to evacuate.

The PRCS-run hospital administration said that evacuating the hospital was impossible, as its hundreds of patients included children in incubators and wounded people in the intensive-care unit. In a statement, it said many of the 14,000 people seeking shelter there are Palestinians displaced by the ongoing Hamas-Israel war.

Israeli strikes targeted areas around the hospital throughout Sunday. The director-general of the World Health Organization has previously said that it would be “impossible” to evacuate hospitals without endangering people’s lives.

This is another problem - a phone call to evacuate a hospital is simply not a doable plan.

Maybe stop the bombings and provide some place to go?

The maps to the humanitarian aid have been provided. The bombing of the terrorist positions in northern Gaza is not going to stop, the terrorists are still firing off rockets at innocents in Israel and refuse to stop. They have been joined by other jihadists on other fronts, jihadists who have attacked Americans.

The IDF said it wasn’t them that bombed the evacuation route but it doesn’t matter anyway, Egypt would not let them come in their borders

The maps to the humanitarian aid have been provided.
"This is the reality for Palestinians living in Gaza without the protection of a robust civil defense infrastructure. With no air raid sirens or bomb shelters, the more than 2 million Palestinians living in the besieged territory – half of whom are children – rely on rare phone calls or text messages from the Israeli military to alert them of imminent strikes."


“In Gaza, we don’t have anything…you have nowhere to go, no bomb shelters, no refuge, you are in the street,” Baroud said. “If you’re lucky enough to even get an alert to tell you to get out of the house, you leave saying, ‘Thank God.’”

Fleeing convoys obeying warning have been attacked. Humanitarian aid was choked off for the convoys of trucks at the crossing in Egypt. Your rosy idea of all people knowing is not true apparently
The bombing of the terrorist positions in northern Gaza is not going to stop, the terrorists are still firing off rockets at innocents in Israel and refuse to stop. They have been joined by other jihadists on other fronts, jihadists who have attacked Americans.
The problem once again is that you can't separate children from evil terrorists. Until you can, I suggest you cease and desist.

Mary had a little lamb it sat upon a shelf and every time it wagged it's tail, it spanked it's little self
What the people bombing apartment after apartment after apartment building say should not even be weighed in the equation as far as I am concerned. Should we ask the fox guarding a hen house if the chickens are all doing well? Gaza had a route to flee with food upon the shelf and when people walked that way they bombed their little selves?

Was the US a monster when we shut down all the airports, etc. after 9/11 to keep the murderers from escaping the country?
If Israel leaves the borders open what would keep Hamas from taking the hostages out of Gaza and turning them over to Iran or someone else? What would happen to those hostages then?
Do you think that Israel should provide food, medicine, gasoline, etc. to Hamas or allow them to get it from someone else?

You can't separate the relatively few terrorists in Gaza from the population. So yes they need food and medicine and water and power!
