The following is a series of notes back and forth between D, A and J about the Israel-Palestinian disaster:
The bombing and killing of children in the UN Security Enclaves to my mind is genocide. The resupply of ammunition for those offensive weapons is abetting that crime.
I simply do not know what to say about this. To my mind, this is a battle between two peoples who plan to fight to the death but will not admit it nor will we. It is as if two Nazi subsets are engaged with each other in a grim war of attrition, one waiting to mutilate the corpses of the other on the Final Day.
I do not know where our obligations lie. Although I would happily hunt those arrogant morons who created the Israel state to ground.

How do you view the Hamas rocket attacks on Israel? They are aimed at civilian targets and that is forbidden but are unsuccessful because of the "Iron Shield."
Is Hamas less at fault because you see their efforts as less intended and symbolic or does Israel come off the worse because they are better at the savagery?

I hope that one day the
present Prime Minister of Israel and the present President of the US
(for abetting that crime) are called to the International Criminal Court
for this war crime.
I realize that neither Israel nor the US are
signatures to the International Criminal Court. i.e. that "one day" may
never happen.

Not to start a debate given that our respective positions in all probability will not change, just let me point out that for whatever reason you failed to mention the role of Hamas in all of this. Perhaps you think that the indiscriminate firing of rockets into civilian neighborhoods is a legitimate form of protest.A

As I understand it the prime purpose of the Balfour Declaration was
to influence the two Zionist advisers to President Wilson to join the
war on the Allied side, and to influence prominent Jews in Russia (i.e.
Leon Trotsky) not to leave the Allied side.
It was carefully worded to preserve the rights of the existing inhabitants of Palestine.
We all know what happened.
The Palestinians are the big losers.
However we did win that war with Germany, a war that should never have happened.
I
welcome you to join me at 10.00 pm London time to turn out the lights,
except for one candle, until 11.00 pm in remembrance of those killed in
that war.

To date:-
58 Israelis have been killed, 56 of them military and only 2 civilians.
1740 Palestinians have been killed, the majority of them civilians.
Today the Israelis targeted another UN school with more deaths.
The
continued economic blockade of Gaza is basically a concentration camp
for 1,7000,000,inhabitants and is morally wrong. I agree that trying to
rocket your way out is not the right answer.
However, Israel telling Palestinians to leave their
homes, move to safe places, being given their GPS coordinates by the UN,
and then bombing those UN Safety Enclaves is not acceptable behaviour. .
