Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Hamas slaughtered over 1,200 innocent people. I am getting tired of the international community making excuses for their actions when there are no excuses for terrorism. Based on their actions, I would not be surprised if Hamas is also murdering innocent Palestinians in Gaza simply to blame Israel for their deaths in a desperate attempt to gain support from the international community or the Arab world. The situation in Gaza will never improve while Hamas is in power. They must be defeated.

Israel was ordered by the International Court of Justice to document their efforts to prevent civilian deaths in Gaza, and I think that was a great idea. It will allow them to prove to the world that they are following international laws.

The two-state solution will be realized whether right-wing Israelis like it or not. However, we will not recognize a terrorist state. The Palestinian state will not exist while Hamas or any other terrorists are in control of any Palestinian territory.

What we want from the US government is to ensure that humanitarian aid is reaching the Palestinians in Gaza. We would like them to create a multinational security force for Gaza and the West Bank. We would like this force to immediately begin securing the parts of Gaza where Hamas has already been defeated to prevent Hamas from returning, and protect the innocent Palestinians from further harm. This security force must immediately create a safe zone within Gaza where Hamas can not operate, and therefore Israel will not need to either, so Palestinians can be safe. We want this security force to take control of the situation in Gaza as soon as possible. Since the UNRWA is no longer a reputable institution, the security force can also distribute humanitarian aid to the Palestinians in Gaza.

I think the Palestinians desperately need our assistance right now. They have a terrorist group, Hamas, operating in their territory, jeopardizing their security, and committing gross human rights violations. The Palestinians also have a belligerent nation, Israel, focused on defeating this terrorist group to protect Israelis from further heinous acts, as Israel has a duty to do for their citizens. But there is no one in this area to protect Palestinians and provide them with any safety and security during the hostilities between Israel and Hamas. As the leader of the world, the USA must play this role, and hopefully other nations, especially Arab nations, will join us.

I believe it's our duty to carve out a safe zone within the Gaza strip where Palestinians can be safe and secure and receive the humanitarian aid they desperately need right now. I believe our physical presence is required to ensure that there is a safe zone for the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip where Hamas and Israel can not carry out hostile activities. It is a huge mistake to believe a terrorist group will not commit atrocious acts against their own people, especially when they are desperate. It has happened repeatedly throughout history. It's also a mistake to expect Israel to protect Palestinians from Hamas' aggression after everything that has happened. It is our duty to take on that responsibility. xo
