Anybody with any sense could stop reading there.
The other day 3 buses exploded miraculously without passengers and another 2 buses were disarmed.
How many murder attacks have been perpetrated in Israel since the start of the war? How many missiles, drones, and rockets have been fired at Israel?
Remember that drone that killed and wounded those young soldiers eating in the mess hall?
You think that Israelis are leading a normal life after being invaded by thousands and having their citizens murdered and kidnapped from their own homes?
The whole nation is most definitely not the same place that it was on Oct. 6, 2023. Let me put it that way.
Are your economic graphs counting foreign aid? I'd think that once you add in that the Gazan economy has actually grown, given the constant massive amounts of aid going in.
It's hard to imagine Palestinians ever wanting peace so long as their entire economy depends on war-induced international aid.
Hamas and the so-called pro-Palestinians in the West have set back the Palestinian cause for decades, just as the Second Intafada did 30 years ago. You can't be pro-Palestinian and pro-Hamas too. Impossible. I am amazed more people don't see that.
There was always a hope for that, but after October 7, a new era has started. There is no such a thing called Palestinian state. There is Egyptians in Gaza who will go back to Egypt. As for West bank that’s another story.
What would be the difference between the Oslo Accords, for example, and actually trying? Not that I think the Oslo Accords did either side any good, btw.
You have a really beautiful heart & I wish more people were like you. I need to tell you something that’s really important not to post on X anymore - it’s dangerous because Elon gave the IDF full access of X. Even a person with a neutral stance, will be deemed a terrorist

If I were writing a note, it would be the Urgency of Victory in Gaza.

My own two cents about the issue. I could not have picked a worst day to publish it though, hours before Trump's statement on Gaza.

What’s your proposal for peace?
Talk to each other and agree a solution.
Has this not been tried? Talk to each other? Agree to a solution? You really still believe that is possible?
I believe you are sincere. But you write as if you are naive. I don't know; are you?
They tried to try, but trying to try is not the same thing as actually doing it.
What would be the difference between the Oslo Accords, for example, and actually trying? Not that I think the Oslo Accords did either side any good, btw.
The Oslo accords were a good start, but we never the finished the process.
And why did that not happen, in your opinion?
