Peace in Gaza: Stop the Hamas rocket fire!

United Kingdom

Over 7000 rockets from the Hamas-controlled Gaza strip have been fired at Israeli town over the last 3 years. If there is to be peace in Gaza, Hamas should be stopped and disarmed.

Hamas, instead of spending money to rebuild Gaza's infastructure, provide medicine and food for the citizens of Gaza, has chosen instead to spend millions on rockets to provoke Israel into a military conflict that has increased the suffering of the people in the region.

Hamas is a brutal terrorist group that has drawn the people of Gaza into a bloody conflict that no one wanted.

Maybe its because your media doesn't show you any facts beyond what will make everyone sympathetic to the Palestinians and ignore that it was Hamas that started the war by firing thousands of rockets at Israel.

Do I support them? 100 percent.

If there's a lesson to this conflict, its simple:

Don't fire thousands of rockets at a country, killing its citizens over the years, and then expect the country not to react.

I think even a four year old understands that if you hit someone, he might hit you back. Hamas is getting what its been asking for for a long time. I can imagine people on this board aren't happy about Hamas getting its ass kicked.

"Ok, you want to justify killing boys and women"

I never wrote that. You can read, right?

"Shame on you! You say Hamas started the war"

Uh… Yeah? Because they kind of did. Even Abbas and Mubarrak said that.  I think people like you prefer to ignore it to make the Palestinians seems like innocent victims who did absolutely nothing. It is of course nonsense. 

"Hamas is one of the resisting army; they’re resisting the Israelian occupation"

Resisting against what?  Israel left Gaza in 2005. If Hamas want to keep on fighting, it isn't because Israel attacked them first.

"When we see, Israel close all the doors of Gaza, and don’t let other provide the food and medicine for Palestinian people "

Interesting… So how did Hamas manage to get so many rockets into Gaza then? Why didn't Hamas spend all that money and resources on helping the people of Gaza?

What do I expect Hamas to do? Maybe stop provoking Israel by firing thousands of rockets at Israeli towns when Israel hasn't even touched them?

"Israel calls Hamas “a terrorist organization”, and that what France called Algerian resisting"

The FLN were a bunch of terrorists that targeted civilians too. I make no difference.

Israel stole no one's land and built up the country unlike any other country did. The place was mostly desert before Israel came into existence. Jerusalem was a large ruin until Israel repaired it and made it a bustling city. NOW of course, the Arabs want it. It's funny how the jealous always want things that don't belong to them.

 

I'm dreaming? Of what? Israel not being attacked by religious fanatics? I don't think thats a dream, its just a reality that the IDF is working to achieve. And they will win, while people like you will be disappointed.
