The corrupt and criminal Israeli leaders have said they aspire to live in peace and not to provoke them into attacking Gaza. Governments which aspire to peace do not (1) use cluster bombs, (2) indiscriminately use missile strikes to kill innocent children, women and men bystanders, (3) carry out preemptive illegal assassinations of suspected opponents (4) illegally abduct, imprison and torture critics (5) blockade and cut electric power to struggling civilians (6) harass and humiliate Palestinians on a daily basis (7) forcibly retake the land and properties from Palestinian owners (7) prevent Palestinians from returning to their own land (8) withhold natural resources and money meant for Palestine (9) violate UN resolutions and humanitarian rights and (10) ignore overwhelming international condemnation. The Israeli government can wisely make amends or continue on its disastrous path and be held responsible for war crimes and forced to pay reparations and relinquish Palestine.

If we analyse, Hamas itself was created by Israelis due to a manner of brute force. How? Hamas are group of Palestinian people who have seen their family members getting killed by the Zionist terrorists in front of their eyes. Hamas would have never evolved if the Zionists were of peaceful blood. Even the faithful Jews are against the Zionist terrorist regime. The USA govt and the UN are controlled by Zionist Israelis. The US economy is failing due to Wars against innocents being framed for nothing, and due to pumping of billions and trillions of dollars into a country which is good for nothing (Israel). Israel just wants to frame Hamas as terrorist and conquer the whole of Gaza strip.

I propose that the UN should decide to form a strong police force aiming to guarantee law and order in Gaza.’ - Pelle, Stockholm, Sweden. Really? How can the UN do this without Israel’s permission and when Israel can bar UN members from entering Israel? On Dec 14 Richard Falk who is a professor of international law and the UN's special rapporteur on the Palestinian territories, was barred entry by Israel. He was leading a UN mission that had intended to visit the West Bank and Gaza to prepare a report on Israel's compliance with human rights standards and international humanitarian law. On Dec 14, in Tel Aviv air port, he was taken to a locked tiny room that smelled of urine and filth. It contained five other detainees and close to claustrophobia. He spent 15 hours so confined, in the miseries of prison life, including dirty sheets, inedible food and lights that were too bright.

Alladin, you have been duped and you have to remove the blinker to see the truth. Seth Freedman in his article “Remove The Blinkers and See the Truth” says: “The fact that the Israeli regime has not beheaded me for my dissent is ample proof that all is well in our little corner of the Middle East. Which, of course, it isn't, despite the best efforts of Israel's squadron of cheerleaders to convince the world otherwise. Although I am a relative newcomer to Israel's Mediterranean shores, the amount of exposure I have had during my four-year sojourn in the Holy Land to the daily humiliation and oppression being meted out to the Palestinians is more than most armchair critics will see in a lifetime. I should know – I was one of them myself for my first 24 years on the planet, and am all too aware how easy it is to be duped by second- or third-hand reporting from the front lines, whether through the media or via friends and family giving their skewed take from inside Israel's borders."

Aladdin: “The root cause for the ME problem is religion as you know” – No it isn’t. The root cause is political Zionism’s desire to impose “Jewish” ethnic sovereignty over Palestine. In other words their aim being to make a homeland out of Palestine for people from foreign lands whilst disregarding the rights and aspirations of the indigenous population is the problem. The religion of Judaism was co-opted by the mainly secular Zionists to give their enterprise some sort of spurious legitimacy. To answer your Q1: The Zionists of course, who else? And Q2: They will never willingly abandon their enterprise, they will need to be compelled to do it and the US and or an awakening to morality of diaspora “Jews” holds the key to this.
