Palestinians Massing At The Israeli Border

[Sixties Fan]

The IDF used a new system, the “Sha’aga” (“Roar”) to disperse the violent demonstrations that took place at the Gaza Strip border over the weekend in which tens of thousands of Arabs participated.

Journalist Amir Buchbut reported that the “Sha’aga” is a non-lethal riot dispersal system based on radio waves that was developed in Israel.

The soldiers who used the system during the violent demonstrations said that it was very effective.

They're not getting Jerusalem as their capital.

East Jerusalem is not Israeli property and it will never be Israeli property. You cannot acquire land at the point of a gun.

 

[Billo_Really]

That# all very melodramatic but a complete waste of bandwidth.

Care to explain why?

 

[Billo_Really]

Islamic terrorists attacking Israel will cause Israelis to respond.

What part of that confuses you?

What makes you think I'm confused?

The Jordanians did, and wanted to annex it to the other 78% they got illegally from the British, just because the British liked Jews less than they did Arabs. And they wanted something for giving the Hashemites such a huge present after the Hashemites got kicked out of their ancient Arabian land AT GUN POINT by the Saudi Clan.

Jerusalem IS the Capital of Israel and will continue to be, ALL of it.
It has been for 3000 years.

What else do you have?

Lots of countries get US aid. We have strategic alliances with Israel. Not so much with Islamic terrorists.

As usual, you’re befuddled by the context. Hamas is an islamic terrorist syndicate, one of several, that is alleged to be a government. They are the beneficiaries of a UN sponsored welfare scam that generates incredible wealth for an islsmic terrorist franchise.

The money which the US lends to Israel does not end up in the Government's pocket. It is for many other things, which also help the US.
You and many others have a very wrong idea of the US "giving" money to Israel for nothing.
--------------------
The U.S.-Israeli alliance has paved the way for the countries to cooperate on far more than just traditional security issues. In part because of the long-standing political and security relationship between the United States and Israel, most Israelis know the United States and harbor positive feelings toward it. Israeli companies looking for a global market for their products have often viewed their American counterparts as partners of choice. So today, Israeli civilian technological innovations are helping the United States maintain its economic competitiveness, promote sustainable development, and address a range of non-military security challenges.

Dozens of leading U.S. companies have set up technology incubators in Israel to take advantage of the country's penchant for new ideas, which is why Bill Gates observed in 2006 that the "innovation going on in Israel is critical to the future of the technology business." Likewise, Israeli high-tech firms often turn to U.S. companies as partners for joint production and marketing opportunities in the United States and elsewhere, creating tens of thousands of American jobs. And although Israelis make up just three percent of the population of the Middle East, in 2011 Israel was the destination of 25 percent of all U.S. exports to the region, having recently eclipsed Saudi Arabia as the top market there for American products.

U.S. companies' substantial cooperation with Israel on information technology has been crucial to Silicon Valley's success. At Intel's research and development centers in Israel, engineers have designed many of the company's most successful microprocessors, accounting for some 40 percent of the firm's revenues last year. If you've made a secure financial transaction on the Internet, sent an instant message, or bought something using PayPal, you can thank Israeli IT researchers.

Friends with Benefits: Why the U.S.-Israeli Alliance Is Good for America
------------

The U.S.-Israel alliance is expansive. Pro-Israel advocates understand that the alliance contributes to America’s security and its position as a moral, democratic leader in the world. Decades of polling show Americans outside the foreign policy establishment support Israel because of the democratic, liberal values shared by our two nations. But the alliance is much deeper than that. As of December 2015, according to the World Bank, Israel is the 37th largest economy in the world by gross domestic product (GDP), an extraordinary accomplishment for such a young and perpetually beleaguered nation. But last year Israel was also America’s 23rd largest trade partner. From Israel, America receives unusually high amounts of investment; helpful and profitable technologies and services; and advancements in science, agriculture, the environment, and healthcare that improve the quality of and, in some cases, quite literally save our lives. Our exports to Israel create jobs in America. Through Israeli innovations and collaboration, our scientists and medical professionals become smarter and more effective at their jobs, and our agriculture and environmental sectors become more efficient and productive. The impact of the alliance is as wide as it is deep.

The civil war fought by Hamas and Fatah did that.

Westsplaining.

The demonstrators are not demanding an end to the blockade. They are demanding to flood Israel with six million Arabs, many of whom actively desire to murder Jews, by their own words.

Also I'm not entirely sure how you would suggest to Israel that they check ID with a sniper rifle. Although, Hamas could certainly prevent children from engaging in the protest and are, according to international law, absolutely obligated to do so.

A 14 year old kid was just looking for work and you shot him!

Last month, a 14-year-old Palestinian from Gaza, Hasan Shalabi, was fatally shot in the chest by an Israeli sniper. He had been looking for work and food for his family when he became one of dozens of children killed by the Israeli army during the Great March of Return protests.​

You shot another Palestinian in the back of the head when he was just smoking a cigarette. You shot a first responder in the chest while giving care to the wounded. And you shot a reporter wearing a large yellow vest indicating he was a member of the media. You and your country are sick people. You make up these bullshit lies just so you can murder innocent, peaceful, unarmed Palestinian's protesting the brutal occupation you are forcing them to live under.

These people just want to go home, not kill Jews.

One man, Hassan Hijazi from Jaffa, made it hundreds of kilometres to the coastal city before handing himself in to Israeli authorities.
​

If he wanted to kill Jews, he wouldn't have voluntarily turned himself in to Israeli authorities.

You are just avoiding my question. What do you think would happen if Gaza stopped attacking Israel completely?

You would just move the goal posts and make up another excuse to maintain the siege, because the bottom line is, you do not want peace.

This aggression that Israel started that you keep mentioning...Do you mean the blockade?

Don't give me this "deer-in-the-headlights" bullshit, you know what I am referring to.

One year on, the Great March of Return protests have become a manifestation of ultimate despair. The effects of the siege and occupation have left more than half of Palestinians in Gaza living in abject poverty, many with serious mental and physical health conditions.​

Hasan Shalabi was looking for work in the Islamic terrorist gee-had zone?

Seems to me that a job interview would be difficult with thousands of peaceful, unarmed gee-had’ers throwing explosives and setting tires on fire.

Applying for a job working the gee-had may have requirements I’m not familiar with.

You are so full of shit. If Palestinians wanted peace they would stop floating fire balloons. They would stop trying to sneak into Israel to go on a murder spree. Just stop.

You never give a date and details about how Israel started the aggression against Gaza.

Do you have articles, videos which would clarify this whole thing for us?

Why do you ask questions when you don't give a shit about the answer?

Timeline: the humanitarian impact of the Gaza blockade
2018 marks 51 years since the occupation of the Palestinian Territory and 11 years of the Gaza blockade. Both the occupation and the blockade affect every aspect of life for Palestinians – they dictate where they can live and study, and whom they can marry.

The blockade has devastated Gaza’s economy, caused widespread destruction and left most people largely cut off from the outside world. Today, one million Palestinians in Gaza don't have enough food to feed their families, despite receiving food assistance or other forms of support.

East Jerusalem is not Israeli property and it will never be Israeli property. You cannot acquire land at the point of a gun.

There is no such thing as "East Jerusalem". Jerusalem was divided only because of fierce fighting between the Israeli army and the Jordanian army (who had absolutely no legal right to it). The final status of Jerusalem is to be negotiated as part of the final agreement between Israel and a future State of Palestine.

There is no possible legal claim to be made that Jerusalem, in its entirety, is "not Israeli property". Anyone who argues that it ALREADY belongs to a State of Palestine or that it is Arab land has fallen into a web of deceit formed by Arabs and supported by an international community which makes up law in order to demonize Jews.

The Old City of Jerusalem contains the most sacred places of the Jewish people. It has been the focus of the Jewish people's faith and history for thousands of years. Israel is strong enough to keep it. And she will.
