The West may get their wish of a permanent ceasefire, and the favourite candidate to be the next leader of a "free" Palastine is a extremist responsible for the Intifada's, that is from Palestinian sources. It has the fingerprints of yet another ISIS in the making. Will they be digging up more water pipes to make rockets under the auscpices of acting in the interests of their people. Lets try it again, I am sure it will work this time, how long will their be peace? 6 months, a year, two tops? A transitional government is the only way to ensure any chance of change, but the west is not interested in doing the work, it will be decades to build up to self governance.

Has anyone played this yet?

This is going to end in another Western created Iran and ISIS, I already said earlier in the year western fragility will create the conditions of mass suffering. Give people freedom and they choose a psychopath, Marwan Barghouti is favourite to beat Maghmud Abbas, this will end up in tens of thousands of palastinians oppressed by their own, however that will need to be all on the West. https://pcpsr.org/en/node/961 Polls in war tend to throw up the general partisanship of it, well if they Barghouti to lead them he is a Islamist hardliner, wants a Islamic caliphate to rule from India to Spain, normal people will mean nothing. Mark my words this will end in lots of tears.

I think France are favourites, but I feel we will get a surprise winner.

This looks pretty good

I get what you are trying to say but most of what you say is rooted in modern anti Zionism. Jews living in the diaspora are no less Jews to those in Israel, in most of our customs and practices it is about being children of Israel and being thankful to the land of Israel. Every Shabbat when I was at school we would say Shema and sing Hatikvah. Every Jewish person has a right of return to Israel. I can accept that some Jews don't want to return or not interested that said all Jews are connected by heritage. I have dual nationality so I do take interest in affairs in Israel. It is a difficult time and we often don't agree with each other on a lot of issues, my family for instance is WW3 when it comes to family views nothing even related to this conflict we disagree on a lot, some would say that is the Jewish way. Denialism of Zionism, or Jews as an singular ethno group is anti semititism and criticising how things are conducted is not. The west has expected us to keep trying something that has been tried for so long and not worked, the fact that Arabs live and hold office in Israel is proof that Jews and Israel is not the barrier to peace.

Joint logistics over the shore is an interesting concept that can potentially work. His suggestions are not bad.

I bought Cyberpunk on special, it came with the expansion for it. It is a much better game than some of the stories I heard about it. It has however had 2 years of updates to fix the issues on release.

The China/Russia veto looks more of a political denial of entry rather than due to anything untoward about the US proposal. Russia were knitpicking a term and inferred it should rather say forced ceasefire. It is just China and Russia trying to stop America getting a W, that being said China and Russia have no business in the UN along with about 90 other countries. I would say ceasefire terms should impose a obligation on Egypt to open the Rafah crossing to allow western military checkpoints to allow mass Gazan movement to proper establish military protected camps. Any persons that seek to avoid the checkpoints to bypass into Egypt can be left to the Egyptian military. Anyone looking to stop refugees moving should be dealt with, that should clear Rafah of everyone that intends to leave. The same applies to northern Gaza a refugee camp to allow people that don't want to be their can get out. Hospital staff and patients be transfered to Israel. It's about removing as much collateral as possible to isolate the remaining fighters. I don't believe Hamas ever had 30000 fighters like they proclaimed, 15k is more realistic, 20 on the upper end. Trying to weed them out now

ISIS want to start up more wars

We may never find out, it didn't take long for the usual internet nutters to blame Israel even though Israeli/Russian relations are rather cordial. if there was a candidate it would likely be one of; US, Biden is tanking hard and needs a political score, getting in a dirty shot on Putin making Putin make a mistake could be gold for Biden's election run, if he could get Russia into a war that America is compelled to enter that's a lottery ticket right there. He did destroy Nordstream so he is capable of special forces style hits. Someone in the EU, Polish or French maybe. Baiting Putin into attacking NATO to force NATO into war is the goal here. Or it may actually just be jihadis doing jihadi things

They then decide to call ceasefires when political standing took a hit. The US then tried political insurrection. The reciprocal response should be, we want Israel to finish the job, however we will mobilise civilian corridors to ensure as many non combatants are kept away and maybe kill a few Hamas terrorists in the process. To ask us to live with Hamas is asking us to live with a genocidal ideology that have done nothing but build instruments of war and absolutely fucking nothing for palastine. Funding of palastine should have stopped a decade ago but our friends told us that everything will be fine. The amount of cultural reprogramming palastine needs to break Jihadism will take decades to undo and given how spectacularly the UN failed to observe the last conditions I have no faith that the UN has the power to do it. I would support full military control of Gaza and WB by the US in support of the UN but that will take 20-30 years before we see the fruits of it. I'm losing hope for the west, it is so easily manipulated by lies or skewed truth and we are at that stage where our allies are not listening to our concerns, everything is pushed on this narrative of genocide which is completely untrue when half the deaths are militant, there is also no bombing of Rafah and,/or shelling of people in a tight area, if we really wanted to go Ze German on them Rafah is a Warsaw like Killzone. The IDF has further provided Gaza nearly 30 tons of food aid and 70 000 litres of clean water as well as medical and general aid but because the UN is so inept they fail to meet the drops and Hamas steals most of it.

It is the resistance to a genocide, genocide is just weaponised to suit western agenda, the "left" need to weaponise anti semititism to create a victim class and the "right" need to weaponise anti semititism for political posturing as mostly all Jews vote left. Both aisles were also feigning sympathy on 8/10 but also questioning what is a reciprocal response. A reciprocal response to a jihadi regime with genocidal intensions, who give Nazi propaganda to teach their youth, is its utter destruction, that doesn't mean people who don't want anything to do with it, but everyone Hamas fighter and zealot must be dealt with.

Purim is probably the most meaningful of religious days, we get to remember the will of the Jewish spirit against adversity. It is fitting that Purim serves to remind us to be stronger than ever as the global community does what it can to pull us apart. When we face an ideology of extermination it is our obligation to resist. we remember the courage of our people that ensured we are alive today, and we will honour that with c'huva and Simcha. Am Yisrael C'hai

A Russian theatre was blown up by an Islamic jihad group. Don't look back in anger. When your enemy attacks your enemy, never interfere

Sad reality that war sells. I don't think all the blame is on Boeing but they do take a lot of it due to the design shortcuts taken to save money. Airline companies are sadly magnifying the situation by failing to upkeep their planes due to economic issues. United Airlines is one company that failed to do maintenance on time, that is frightening.

The American war in the middle east claimed over 4.5 million lives, that is the most sophisticated military in the world. The reality of war is that war is not idealic, it is ugly. I was lucky to avoid conflict, when I was a kibbutzim volunteer 20 years ago it was only just at the time of the Hamas take over and escalation, i had to do service but was not in active war zones, when I finished my kibbutzim it was just before it went to hell in a hand basket. What I can say is we did very crude CQB training, it was not a type of fighting that was common, compared to the men and woman in service today, they are absolutely on point. In trying to answer your question, Gaza is not easy and while not all Gazans are terrorists, the collective support Hamas and because of that the propensity for collateral is high, if the standard was perfection then not possible but the conflict is being handled is a much nicer way than say America would have handled it. As for the future, palastine need to understand our right to exist and why we are there, until they don't want to kill us they haven't taken the first step. I've said it before they are our cousin's related through history, when Canaan was a bunch of tribes, the Israelite tribe became the dominant tribe, with it started the routes of one of the oldest civilizations, palastinians derive from lavant Semites many were Israelites even if not Jewish. Palastine as a national identity is 100 yeas old and they need a better course correction because violence is not going to help them be a long surviving nation. I will however not change my position that we are within our rights to preserve our way of life and rebuild Israel in the best way we can. I don't agree with everything that is going on, the west bank is a bit squeamish, that said Gaza was necessary, if it doesn't look good is not really the point, if we do what the current west wants, we are dead

Basically a western sky screamer who knows nothing of the Jewish, Palastine history is deeply sided with Hamas and all signs point to anti semetic If you exclude what palastine is then they will be victims I guess. Until you look at the full picture instead of your adopting your western neo neo liberalism victim and guilt mentality you don't help Palestinians. Your high octane energy should be directed to palastine and how you change their mindset. When America goes to war in the middle east, 4.5 million people died, not a peep, Israel dismantling a genocidal ideology that is at the root of the 1895 Islamic nationalist movement which renamed Islamic jihad, everyone cries about it. Oct 7 was the consequences of being soft, if we went hard on the very first time they launched rockets, they would not feel privileged to do so, we should have taught them like puppy training, launch rockets, get disciplined, over time they would not have been able to amass military capability. October 7 happened because we got soft, we played the western world game that if you are nice to them they will be nice back, gave them water, electricity, internet, money and they took that as weakness. Fixing palastine should not be out problem, it should be the wests problem, not a suggestion either it should be forced on the west.

Obviously provocative title, but the content is worthwhile, if you are a Hamas sympathiser then probably not for you.

Is peace the ideal, yes we have been saying that all along, the barrier for peace remains Hamas and they can only be uprooted. This is difficult but I believe we have minimised collateral better than expected given the nature of Gaza. If Israel wanted to massacre the civilian population they would have done it with consummate ease, no operations conducted over Ramadan. Along with food aid getting in. The objective is uprooting and destroying Hamas, that is not a would be nice but an absolute necessity, to much damage has been done to their infrastructure and personel fighting capacity to back out, the silent voices of Gaza are now turning on them and that is how you break ideology, nobody wants this again. The IDF is deadly efficient at finding and eliminating militants, a video was released by Rudy Rochman on drone surveillance and how Hamas know they are watched and use children as shields, the footage shows large residential and school districts that are undamaged due to high collateral. 1 Hamas per 1.4 civilians is not what anyone wants but it is pretty efficient ground operation that is reaching its end. There are people that want to stop us getting absolute liberation, likely due to being in Iran's pocket and needing to pander to a certain demographic. A victory for Israel is liberation for palastine only then can real meaningful change happen. Change can only happen when there is understanding of our history and even if that history is not good it can lead to commonality

I wonder what will happen to Boeing not just as a civil aviation company but how do the disasters impact the company's reputation as an investor company. The civil aviation standards need reassign and airline componies need to be audited more regularly for non compliance

Israel got the help of the Nazis to carry out the Nakba, some 2 years after all the Nazis were hung. The revisionist history is stronk. Some 2 years after the trauma of the Holocaust where we were murdered in industrial fashion, you could forgive that we were not so big on living with people that wanted to kill us I keep hearing about this Nakba, when 200 000 people that tried to kill us were thrown out of Israel and wandered some 60 km to Gaza and the West Bank to plot part 2. On the King David bombing, that was the result of Jewish distrust in the British, in 1939 the British white paper turned millions of Jews back to Europe where we were murdered, after the war Nakam was formed, militant hardliners of seriously pissed off Jews had some bad intension. Was it right, no but it was very understandable. Born out of a Lithuanian Jewish family that were persecuted by the pogroms and communists then survived Warsaw and Trablinka, I am here because of them and I did not even get to know them but we have their prisoner uniforms, the Magen David with Juden on it and prisoner tattoos. You don't have to understand what that does, it is sorrow, pain and hatred, this is why we are hare wired and why October 7 was a damning reminder that we can't go soft because people want us dead.
