"The enemy is not Hamas, nor is it the military wing of Hamas, every child in Gaza is the enemy"

13. One of the biggest reasons

for Netanyahu pushing to take entire control is also so that they can "clean up" the appearance, remove bodies/body parts etc. before they will allow in any international media to see things for themselves. It has been a practice from even long ago when one group like the Stern Gang, Irgun etc. would attack a village in the '40's and word would spread about horrible things but nobody would be allowed in until others came along to "observe" so to speak. Then a few days later the "official" investigation would come through and sure enough instead of a lot of casualties there were but a few counted.

This is an old maneuver of military forces from all over the globe. Atrocity? What atrocity? Where is your proof? That sums up the phony defense against accusations. In the West Bank they do it a little differently. The IDF stands off a ways while the settlers burn, kill etc. and then belatedly come along and say "Well yes something happened but we are unable to identify who that might have been. But we'll keep investigating." Sure thing. If it only happened on a rare occasion a person could believe it was rogue elements in the IDF. But it is so frequent that it is inescapable to conclude it is pattern and practice. Along with holding off for hours any medical aid coming in that could save the lives of the wounded.

People like this Feiglin moron have great influence on the right despite some people in Israel who try to downplay the influence of extreme radicals on the right leaning movements. There it is in the open with his call for genocide. So if you are a Palestinian living in Israel how can you possibly feel that you will be treated by such a government?

I have also objected to the media and governments around the world using the word "settler" to describe those who make incursions into the already occupied areas of the world, including the behavior of the US, and overtaking control and ownership by force and demand. Settler sounds benign as though you are doing something good when in fact they are illegal squatters and terrorist thugs.
