What's going on in Palestine?

Why did both Rihanna and Dwight Howard tweet #FREEPALESTINE and then delete the tweets? That question really doesn't need answering but I found it weird that they both tweeted #FREEPALESTINE and then deleted it

Honestly doggie, They have a plan, for a long time, to act out some biblical script in real life. 2014 was the year intended for execution of this plan. Some have known this pre-2008. Really they just want to bomb Iran, but they need enough manufactured consent first. So like Lebanon, they'll play this to Christmas, which is neither of their holiday, and destroy as many assets as they can. Which are the already suffering families & some empty concrete buildings. The dudes they hatin on are in tunnels re-n-up. Bless 1♥

P.S.
As far as deleted tweets. Jewish co-sponsors ain't w all that. Look up how many celebs and regular tv personalities that are a part of the trilateral commission. Even the ones w the best intentions have to be a part of this or risk losing their notoriety and careers. So it's best they listen to their controllers & not their hearts.

Sarcastic comments in response to a legitimate question are indicative of ignorance.

But I will to some degree reiterate that there's not a whole lot of difference happening other than tactical warfare and attempts at treatises and peace.

Right now money is being sent to fight against the Hamas continued bombing from Gaza. The PLO's or sympathizers constantly launch these cheap ass missiles and to blast them out of the air costs Israel about $1,000,000 to thwart off each attack.

Those that are 100% on either side are extremists that really don't know history or truly don't understand the complexities. Having spoken with Jews and those that call themselves Palestinians have allowed me to be sympathetic to both sides.

Buddy, look up the history on wiki and other places. Start from the beginning, don't concentrate on what's going on now. Then build up to whats happening now. Understand the plight of the people and evil that Israel commits with its so-called partner in crime the Grand Old U.S. backing the summabitches.
 
It's the new way of saying something you wanna say but then retracting it so
you won't have to fully deal with the repercussion.
 
My question is
If hitler didn't exist
Would isreal had been created?

eventually

ya'll have to understand, they created Israel to kick the jews out of Europe because they didn't want them there either.

All Jews need to be in Israel, so they can be killed when god comes to visit the Earth. According to the bible.
 
The map showing the aggrandizement of Israel at Palestinian expense is a good indication of what's going on there. Moreover, Israel illegally seized land from the Palestinians during the 1967 Six Day war that it continues to occupy and enlarge. Some news sources, such as the BBC, correctly note that Israel's occupation of this land is the longest military occupation in modern history.

As you read this know that at this very moment Israel is continuing to illegally seize, and build settlements on, Palestinian land. More disturbing is that Israel has checkpoints throughout Palestinian lands that make it almost impossible for Palestinians to live their lives normally. I saw a documentary once wherein a Palestinian woman was crying because she couldn't take her sick child to a hospital that was on the other side of an Israeli checkpoint.

Hamas is a Muslim organization that actively resists Israel. However, they are viewed by most governments, including ours, as terrorist. Outside of Palestine and Lebanon, Hamas has very little military and economic support. It regularly launches unguided, and almost completely ineffective, rockets from a small territory--known as The Gaza Strip, inside a small part of Palestine that is not yet occupied by Israel.

How ineffective are Hamas's rockets? They've killed 1 Jew since this latest skirmish. While Israel, with its modern military supplied by the U.S., has killed over two hundred Palestinians. No one denies that Hamas's rockets reek havoc and terror on the daily lives of the Israeli. Still, the rockets barely represent a fraction of the fatalities that Israel military strikes do.

This latest skirmish, by the way, occurred because Egypt negotiated a Palestinian peace treaty with Israel that Palestine, and Hamas, took no part in. Israel views Hamas's rocket attacks as breaking the treaty. While, Palestine and Hamas claims it did not negotiate a peace treaty in the first place. Nonetheless, because of Hamas's ineffective rocket strikes, Israel's Prime Minister is threatening to send ground forces into the Gaza strip to oust Hamas and its rockets. Everyone knows, though, such an action would only be a pretext because if Israel sends its ground forces into the Gaza strip Israel will occupy that land too, and expel the Palestinians that currently live there.

What's going on in Palestine?

Eight crucial points: Understanding Israel's assault on Gaza
JULY 16, 2014


1. The casualty toll is the best indicator of the misery inflicted

Palestinian casualties always far outnumber Israeli casualties. While all deaths in such conflicts are tragic, the Palestinian casualties are always tens or hundreds of times greater than the Israeli toll. In the 2008/2009 conflict, 1387 Palestinians died, vs. nine Israelis. In the current conflict, an estimated 213 Palestinians have died, vs. one Israeli.

2. Militarily speaking, the conflict is grossly asymmetrical

The media coverage rarely reflects the military reality of the conflict. Israel is a military superpower, with F-15 fighter jets, AH-64 Apache helicopters, sophisticated missiles, an anti-rocket defence system (and nuclear arms.) Hamas and other militant groups have primitive and ineffective -- often "home made" -- rockets. Not a single Israeli fatality has resulted so far from the hundreds of rockets fired from Gaza since the recent spate of violence began.

3. All violence directed against civilians violates international law

Firing rockets from Gaza violates international law, as they may well hit civilians rather than military targets. But the repeated Israeli strikes on Palestinian homes, apartments, cafés and other civilian targets violate international law too. This, regardless of whether Israel fired "warning" shots, or phoned warnings to the inhabitants. While all such reckless acts should be equally condemned, the Canadian government has only seen fit to speak against the rockets from Gaza.

4. Israel unlawfully ignores the concept of proportionality as it responds to Gaza rockets

International law permits countries to respond militarily to threats, but such responses must be proportional to the threat faced. If none of the rockets shot from Gaza have hit their targets, or caused fatalities, the legality of Israel's brutal response is highly questionable.

5. The Israeli assault on Gaza only deepens the "collective punishment" imposed by Israel since 2007

Under international law, it is unlawful to punish an entire community for the crimes of a few. Nevertheless, Israel has imposed a blockade on Gaza since 2007, effectively punishing 1.5 million civilians in Gaza simply because Israel rejects the Hamas administration in Gaza. The latest Israeli military strikes only deepen this punishment.

6. The rocket attacks from Gaza are a desperate act by a people without hope

Unfortunately, the rockets shot from Gaza simply give Israel a questionable excuse to pound Gaza yet again. According to polls, most people in Gaza do not believe rockets are effective against Israel. Nevertheless, there is no broad outcry against them, as many view them as a symbol of resistance, albeit futile. The best way to minimize the influence of extremist Palestinian groups would be to give Palestinians real hope for their future.

7. Under the UN, warring parties are not supposed to "fight it out"

The UN Charter reserves the use of force to Security Council members. When local conflicts arise, UN leaders -- including Canada -- are supposed to immediately intervene to stop the conflict, and prevent loss of life. Canada has not yet called for any cessation of hostilities. In fact, the Harper government abandons all principles as it declares blind support for Israel.

8. Israel's extreme belligerency towards Gaza may be linked to other factors

The current surge in violence is occurring in a broader political context. Some believe that Israel is pursuing violence to derail the Fatah-Hamas Palestinian unity government. Others believe it is a continuation of the assault on Hamas institutions which began in recent weeks in the West Bank. Still others believe that Israel's actions may be related to a wish to control of natural gas supplies in Gaza.
 
My question is
If hitler didn't exist
Would isreal had been created?

The Zionist movement began in the 1800s and was led by Theodor Hertzl ( who ironically never visited Palestine). But the Holocaust and later Jewish activism (and terrorism) accelerated the creation of the State of Israel from the colonized British territory of Palestine.

Hezbollah is a Muslim organization that actively resists Israel. However, they are viewed by most governments, including ours, as terrorist. Outside of Palestine and Lebanon, Hezbollah has very little military and economic support. It regularly launches unguided, and almost completely ineffective, rockets from a small territory--known as The Gaza Strip, inside a small part of Palestine that is not yet occupied by Israel.

How ineffective are Hezbollah's rockets? They've killed 1 Jew since this latest skirmish. While Israel, with its modern military supplied by the U.S., has killed over two hundred Palestinians. No one denies that Hezbollah's rockets reek havoc and terror on the daily lives of the Israeli. Still, the rockets barely represent a fraction of the fatalities that Israel military strikes do.

This latest skirmish, by the way, occurred because Egypt negotiated a Palestinian peace treaty with Israel that Palestine, and Hezbollah, took no part in. Israel views Hezbollah's rocket attacks as breaking the treaty. While, Palestine and Hezbollah claims it did not negotiate a peace treaty. Nonetheless, because of Hezbollah's ineffective rocket strikes, Israel's Prime Minister is threatening to send ground forces into the Gaza strip to oust Hezbollah and its rockets. Everyone knows, though, such an action would only be a pretext because if Israel sends its ground forces into the Gaza strip Israel will occupy that land too, and expel the Palestinians that currently live there.

Why are you mentioning Hezbollah? Don't you mean Hamas?
 
What I don't get is that all the Muslim countries that surround Israel, they always saying they support Palestine but never really get involved. I guess since Israel has the Nuke they just sit back in the cut....:rolleyes:

A lot of countries have nukes, but Israel has this strange power.......I don't fully understand it, even the US bows down.....


what is the root of this power?

The power, privilege and persecution of Israel started when I said to Abraham "The whole land of Canaan, where you now reside as a foreigner, I will give as an everlasting possession to you and your descendants after you and I will be their God." (Genesis 17:8)

This great gift, though, was always to coincide with a constant curse-- The Israeli Man's Burden:


The burden of the word of the Lord concerning Israel: Thus declares the Lord, who stretched out the heavens and founded the earth and formed the spirit of man within him: “Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup of staggering to all the surrounding peoples. The siege of Jerusalem will also be against Judah. On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves. And all the nations of the earth will gather against it. On that day, declares the Lord, I will strike every horse with panic, and its rider with madness. But for the sake of the house of Judah I will keep my eyes open, when I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. Then the clans of Judah shall say to themselves, ‘The inhabitants of Jerusalem have strength through the Lord of hosts, their God.’

(Zechariah 12:1-14)
Neighboring nations would be foolish to step to Israel. My people can never be defeated-- They shall always have the proverbial juice.

America has been wise to bow to Israel and its subservience to Israel is one of the few reasons it has not been decimated like Jerusalem in the days of Jeremiah:


Behold, all who are incensed against you shall be put to shame and confounded; those who strive against you shall be as nothing and shall perish. You shall seek those who contend with you, but you shall not find them; those who war against you shall be as nothing at all.

(Isaiah 41:11-12)
For the nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; those nations shall be utterly laid waste.

(Isaiah 60:12)
