another uniformed dolt.......who cares what the UN says....we all have known for years that the UN is very anti Israel...

You misunderstand me.

First, we have people saying that Israel occupies Gaza.

Then we have people saying Israel should not invade Gaza (how do you invade a place you already occupy?).

And now we have people saying that Israel should not reoccupy Gaza (how do you reoccupy a place you already occupy?).

So Israel occupies Gaza, and it should also not invade Gaza or reoccupy Gaza at the same time. o_O

Just pointing out that things aren't making sense.

As expected, anything to support taking over Gaza and oppress the people of Palestine. That should guarantee peace........... :rolleyes:

Shrug, if by anything you mean assholes lobbing rockets into your country...... well yeah.

You have any idea how bad we would fuck up Mexico if they started lobbing rockets into Cali? We would turn those towns into complete rubble by sunrise.

How exactly does one invade a territory you already occupy?o_O

Well they are really close to home so maybe one massive shift change were all the soldiers currently occupying haul ass back to Israel and then the new soldiers haul ass into Gaza to "reoccupy". Not very efficient but it would be rather amusing to watch and read about.

I can only imagine what's going through an IDF's soldier mind at the thought of occupying Gaza. All those roadside bombs and other IEDs learned from Iraq and Afghanistan can't be a pleasant thought. Why die for a flawed cause?

TBH, the only way forward is the one Israel is most reluctant to take. That is, giving the Palestinians a viable path to peace and stability. Israel need to let go of their paranoia and seriously consider this. Times have changed. Egypt representing Israel in these talks is a good example of this.

If Hamas still exists, of course Israel will have to reoccupt Gaza someday. If Hamas is still breathing, the rockets are not far behind.

Except when Hamas isn't being bombed, they actually keep rockets in check. But israel's strategy, after they murder some children for sport, is to go after anyone in power and as it turns out, when there is a power vacuum things get out of hand. Which is precisely what israel wants.

more misguided diatribe --

This is the truth of the matter --
Okay so lets get this straight -- We have a country that has no navy, no air force, no special forces, not really an army, no tanks, no place to hide, k-mart rockets, yet they want to fight a war with Israel which is a powerhouse, I don't get it. they built (Gaza) tunnels to surprise the enemy, something like the Trojan horse concept. now who is advising these people to wage war.

The equation is simple for the Palestinian people. They elected a group who has sworn to destroy Israeli. This same group has no problem using Palestinian people as human shields. They should not be surprised when Israeli responds. They control there own destiny. If Hamas would swear off rocket attacks and swear off calling for the destruction of Israeli they wouldn't get bombed. Also if they swore of violence they wouldn't have such a restrictive blockade on them.

I'm sorry you are so ignorant that reading is beyond you. Maybe if israel was capable of holding up their end of a bargin once things would be different, but apparently that is asking too much. Then again, if isreal is full of people like you, I can see why there is no hope reasoning with them.

Here is something fun proving what sort of trash is in the idf:

They sure showed those children. Well, the ones that weren't murdered at least.

One Israeli leader did try that... and got a bullet for his troubles from an ultra-right-wing Israeli traitor.

Is anyone surprised by this?

They have been taking over land for the past 60 or so years - due to 'security' reasons,.. yet settlements pop up in the security zones - this land is dangerous,... but, Israelis can build and live here.
