CNN’s Wolf Blitzer seemed at a lost of words at the justification being used to bomb a refugee camp in Gaza.

    I don’t think the Israeli government cares anymore than the Iranian government cared about killing its people. Any government based on religion is going to be intolerant of nonconforming behaviors and other religious beliefs. Separation of church and state is a requirement for successful societies.

      Iran killing it’s own people or the Israelis? For sure on religion being a blight to the progress of humanity. I’d say I’m still perplexed, but honestly just meh. I’ve read enough weird shit today.

        Ive witnessed too much of it in the last 20 years. I’m tried of seeing innocent people killed to defend a religion.

      This is not a religious conflict. It’s imperialist and settler colonial. This headass take needs to stop.

          If I’m a Palestinian, and I am / convert to Judaism. Can I join Israel? (no)

          Also, how many Israelis have a Jewish religion? (they are the minority, it’s mostly non believers)

          How does this fit in it being religious instead of ethnic you think?

            When the killing went beyond ethnicity. Hamas didn’t target Israelis, they targeted Jews.

              They killed the people outside of their prison cell. The ones that have them locked in there under horrifying conditions. They targeted anyone on the outside.

                That’s why you invest in diplomacy and not weapons of war. The Palestinian Government should have asked for a third party to investigate the current situation in Gaza and requested a diplomatic solution. Instead they fired thousands of rockets at innocent people and murdered or kidnapped every Jew they found.

                I have A LOT of criticism of Bibi and his Government, but I am firmly against terrorism.

                  Great, then let’s give Palestinians an iron dome as well.

                  And while we’re at it, let’s return the land and homes that Palestinians have been terrorized out of, and prevent the horrific living conditions in their prison camp called Gaza. Maybe during the great march of return, a peaceful protest that was met in deaf ears and bullets. Eventually you have two options, die a silent suffering death or fight back.
