    Missiles were created using pipes Israel used to steal water from the Palestinians. No need to ship them in - Israel left it behind to steal.
    Once again Math. Try using it. The Narrow tunnels of Hamas cannot store much food. Bottle rockets do not take much room to store.
    So, now you're demanding that Hamas use human shields. Make up your ****ing mind.
    Once again, try using math sometime.

    Even if it were true ( we both know its not), its not relevant. Gazans were not starving en masse before Israel invaded. Now they are. Its time for Israel learn how to pursue their objectives in a way that does not lead to mass starvation of innocent civilians, or not pursue their objectives and go home.

    No they can’t. Get informed.

    You claim to know how much is hidden in the Hamas tunnels and underground shelters? There is enough to supply a reported 30,000 Hamas terrorists for months. If 80% of Gazans are starving why isn’t Hamas sharing?

    Gazans were not starving until Israel left in 2005 and Hamas violently overthrew the PLO government in 2006 and started launching rockets against Israeli neighborhoods in 2007. Hamas regularly and continuously steals humanitarian aid including food, water, and food designated for Gazan civilians. If true reason 80% of Gazans are starving is because of Hamas. There is sufficient humanitarian aid entering Gaza to feed every Gazan civilian.

    Hamas has hundreds of kilometers of tunnels and hundreds of underground shelters. Automobiles can be driven through some of them. Hamas leadership drive cars under the Egyptian border on their way to vacation homes.

    Are you unaware the Egyptian government doesn’t want them? Unlike our open border, they guard theirs.

    Where are the dead from starvation? I don’t see any. 4 months and none are dead from genocidal starvation? Weird.

    Maybe because they’re getting enough food and if they weren’t they would leave? Egypt is right there

    Egypt has actually closed the border with Gaza. They don’t want any possibility of Hamas terrorists crossing. That’s of course a phony reason because Hamas terrorists can easily cross under the border in the tunnels Hamas uses to smuggle goods and weapons into Gaza. Egypt doesn’t want the expense of Gazan refugees.

    Our border is “closed” too. Does it seem to be doing any good? It doesn’t to me

    Our border is not closed. The border between Gaza and Egypt is.

    "Do you defend starvation as a weapon in Gaza?"

    it would not be a good look to see starving pictures of Palestinians, especially if they were being transported somewhere and the picture resembled the starving Jews of the past, all skin and bone

    Still waiting for someone to explain to me how exactly Egypt is going to stop 2.3 million people so determined to survive the genocide of starvation and bombs that they will literally do anything and go anywhere to survive. Walls and “no” don’t cut it.

    Why isn't someone saying more farms mean the number of trucks is enough. I have yet to see any produce street markets in the videos.

    Israel has deliberately and methodically destroyed the farmland in Gaza.

    According to Tipper101’s logic, the Nazi’s did not kill a single Jew. According to Tipper101’s logic, all the Jews committed suicide. After all, according to Tipper101, all the Jews in Europe could have fled to Switzerland.

    yeah I know...1...10...1Mn..I know its not easy when kids are involved but those that have brought this situation about are the ones that must take responsibility. One cannot solve all the world's ills.
    To me, both sides of this are conflict are now just pathetic little actors for other states, especially the humus guys who have just plain and simple lost sight of who and what they are...so okay they ran the gangs in gaza dealing in all protection rackets and the ran graft and corruption. They made a shyte pile of cash out of it, why couldn't they have just been content with that; keep their people on the edge of starvation and poverty, make sure the aid keeps flowing so they can keep making their money? But no...so here we are...yet another ridiculous barny between the same bunch of f**kin stupid rag heads and a bunch of rabidly f**kin religious Jews.....if that's the course they all want to take then f**k em.... let em all die...sod the lot of em
    next crisis please....

    You keep posting this. I don’t think you know what it means because after you post this, you come back and post about the same thing.

    Isn't crazy to feed and supply your enemy as you fight for your country's existence? That just kills more people in the long run. Peace comes only with defeat. And as long as the Palestinians support Hamas they are nonsensical to think Israel should bolster them.

    An yet that is exactly what happened during WWII and Hilter allowed it.

    It's amazing how many people on this forum support a morality worse than Hitler even after I point it out.
