What's up with that?
I can't say what I really (and I mean really) think.
Y'all can figure it out.

"Israeli move to block some Palestinian gatherings at the beginning of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan"
Yeah, block them. Let's see if that will start a war..... If not we will bulldoze some homes.... That should do it.

(38,958 posts)Please dont confuse drama based, infotainment TV with serious news programming. Their job is to fill airtime between ads for drugs we never knew we needed. Occasionally they will brush up against the thing called journalism, but it is rarely the case.
I recommend turning them of and finding your information elsewhere.

Im sick of it.
Both sides need to stop fighting! Now!
I am not taking sides because they are both wrong.

(9,944 posts)... there is a bias, and it's always been there. Bibi and their goal is to take all the land. That's apparent, from the beginning. I get that... Before anyone jumps on me, I think Yasser and their goal was the same. That's why he never accepted a 2-state... They both have leaders and enough people that want all the land and the others gone. We need to hope for better leaders. The situation is beyond dire... what do they think they will do with millions of people without a home? History has the answers, and they are bad.

(2,247 posts)We and our allies promised the same plot if land to two separate groups. The Palestinians for fighting with us and what became the Israelis out of guilt.
We ignored thousands of years of history and only marginally kept our promise to the first group and ignored the often illegal actions of the second group.
Both sides have done bad things , but we call one side terrorists.
It is sad. Nearly 80 years later and the US and western allies haven't realized since they helped create this mess that they have an obligation to help both sides to find a way to peacefully coexist or at least non-violently coexist.

Both of these current governments are better served by ware than peace.
