Strange then that Gaza is firing missiles into Israel rather than negotiating for peace and independence.

Israel has repeatedly said that Gaza can be free and independent if they would just stop firing missile over the border into Israel and sign a peace agreement.

It's insane that people here are taking sides, including the above linked organizations, instead of pressuring Hamas (which controls Gaza) to accept a peace deal.

There are not settlements in Gaza. There are no Israeli soldiers in Gaza. It's the simplest easiest peace deal - stop shooting missiles at Israeli cities.

...and for those who don't understand why they do not do this incredibly easy thing - it is because Hamas is entirely funded and owned by Iran, who specifically forbids any peace with Israel.



Maybe Israel should stop shooting people on the Gazan side of the wall within the so called "buffer zone". Why one side shooting is good and the other side is bad?


Shooting at the border goes both ways at the Gazan border. It's a tense border in what is effectively a war zone. No one should approach it from either side.

Again, stop trying to take sides in a war you have no skin in the game. It's easy to tell Gazans to keep fighting Israel from the comfort of your basement.

Real courage is in advocating a peace deal for Gaza.
