This is a completely made up fake story that's oft repeated by the Netanyahu administration. No basis in reality
And you should really learn about the history of Palestine and all the attempts at peace. Israel has occupied Palestine for decades and has murdered thousands. In 2014 alone they killed 2,300 Palestinians. 70% of those being civilians. In return Israel lost 87 soldiers in their invasion.
If you lost your brother, mother, sister, etc, wouldn't that push you to... doing something? Anything?
Hamas is NOT Palestine. But their existence ONLY makes sense if you read even a little bit of the history of this occupation.
"If you lost your brother, mother, sister, etc, wouldn't that push you to... doing something? Anything?"
Are you saying you support Israel's response?
Hamas armed members are estimated at 15-30,000.
That seems more like .8%, not 8%.
We have pictures of dead babies from the October raid by Hamas, this is based in reality and is not made up.
> have an airport
There's no airport in Gaza. Yasser Arafat airport was bombed and the runway destroyed in 2001 by Israel 22 years ago.
> a port
Since 2007, the Port of Gaza has been under an Israeli-imposed naval blockade as part of a blockade of the Gaza Strip, and activities at the port have been restricted to small-scale fishing.
> unchecked import
Where are these unchecked imports coming from? Through the closed Egyptian border? Or through the closed Israeli border?
China would allow Taiwanese extermists to regularly sneak into China and brutally murder, rape, and torture 600,000 people without obliterating Taiwan.
Russia wouldn't do anything if Ukrainian extremists launched rockets at them regularly - they'd just accept their crazy neighbors for who they are!
And the US would definitely let 9-11 happen, and not invade and occupy two countries (one of which had literally nothing to do with anything) for a decade after.
Only Israel is evil.
/sarcasm in case not obvious.
