Sign for Peace in Palestine UPDATE!
-
Guys, I've posted an UPDATE to my original post.
-
If this guy Yigal Palmor (Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs) is the best diplomat Israel can produce they are going to dig a very deep hole.
It looks to me that the anti-Semitic shield that Israel has been using for years is slowly crumbling. Governments are finally speaking up and echoing its citizens disgust of the Israeli treatment of Palestinian children.However, I have no doubt that the bloodshed will continue while the USA is backing Israel and many feel that the Zionist lobby is going to keep pressure on Washington to stay the course. A sorta, he who pays the piper thing!
All that other counties can do is to boycott Israeli products and services until their Government enters into meaningful peace talks under the UN. I wont hold my breath. But I will hope
-
It isn't only non Jews that are expressing their disgust at the Israeli Government's actions. Henry Siegman, a former leader of American Jewish Congress has strongly condemned Israel’s war on the Gaza Strip, saying “the Zionist dream is based on slaughter of innocents.”

A frequent contributor to the Times of Israel laid out the case for the complete obliteration of not just Hamas, but of everyone -- civilians, children, innocents -- who lives in the Gaza strip. The column was removed, but we have the full text here...

Whoa: Times of Israel Op-Ed Advocates Genocide Against Gazans !
It might not be far from the true thinking of many!

@Mike Lucey: I'll show you the Real 'going to a very deep hole':
and the same personality was 'appalled' by US which did not provided 'Iron Domes' to protect the Gazans from rocket attacks.

N.B. some curious fact: 10 percent of Hamas rockets misfired, landed in Gaza Strip
http://www.worldtribune.com/2014/07/30/israel-says-10-percent-hamas-rockets-misfire-fall-gaza-strip/ -
I just read the UN Watch article that image refers to. It's filth. And dishonest to a degree that makes me cringe unvoluntarely. What sort of douche writes such drivel?
I also read the Haaretz piece. A quote: "Pillay said that she was appalled at Washington consistently voting against resolutions on Israel in the Human Rights Council, General Assembly and Security Council. "They have not only provided the heavy weaponry which is now being used by Israel in Gaza but they've also provided almost $1 billion in providing the 'Iron Domes' to protect the Israels from rocket attacks," she said. "But no such protection has been provided to Gazans against the shelling.""
Ah, nuance. Anyway: you seem to think me biased, but er, impartiality doesn't seem your forte either.

We all now who created the everlasting problem when creating another artificial state on the important geopolitical ground... Generating chaos is a method.

srx, why 'everlasting problem'? I thought NATO sorted things out 15 years ago, no?
And how exactly the Snowden's revelations on Israel are connected to Great Serbia\Yugoslavia? -
Wow, seriously?

Just the way they wanted to. Making chaos from normal life. You can not hide these things... except from those who want NOT to see them.
They also made a new "state" Kosovo from the part of Serbia (like they made Israel), making another everlasting problem just to place the largest NATO base in Europe there, and also a base for illegal trafficking of every kind, from narcotics to human organs. In Europe! -

In Europe!'....... largest NATO base in Europe there'. Yep, thats about the size of it and the reason. Is Ukraine the next spot for such bases?

REMOVED!
Google Removes ‘Bomb Gaza’ Game From Play Store
Google has removed Bomb Gaza from its Android Play store.

Yes, I see that it has been removed by Google along with other similar 'games'. The 'games' really should not have been allowed on the site in the first place. Hopefully Google will tighten there admission procedures. Jeeeeees, even SketchUcation's dedicated Mods catch inappropriate posts within minutes!
I hear on the TV that talks are about to start in Egypt between the Palestinians and Israelis but no mention of Hamas! If Hamas is left out of the talks, I think it will be a waste of time.
I really think 'social media' has played a huge part in pushing for a resolution. However I also feel that pressure should not be eased up until an agreement is reached that ALL sides are willing to implement and stick with.

Whatever they do it HAS to contain at least one open border WITH humanitarian aid AND some international help to rebuild. Hamas will always be a problem though and it will only be a matter of time before they continue to attack the jewish state. Really bloody wasteful of so much potential within the civilian population of gaza et al.

That's a possibility, yes. However, my guess is Gazan support for Hamas would dwindle (that's a word, right?) if Israel would support Gaza rather than attack it.

Indeed.

Interesting discussion. I normally refrain form commentary in these types of discussions but I'll voice my opinion here with an interest in this matter. I am half Arabic/Danish, by the way.
Hamas has a vile charter , though it was written some 25 years ago and some encouraging changes can be noted from some elements of it membership t go along with the PA's agreements with Israel.
The Likud charter is a complete and outright rejection (for eternity) for a Palestinian state and is a more recent document(1999) Look it up! It is not too pretty either.
The Media in the US is incredibly slanted. I'd guess, much like the media narrative during the (soulless) native american extermination, we will have to wait a long time for a non partial and more accurate portrayal of the problems.
There is much much better journalism in Israel than there is in the US when it comes to this subject matter as far as what is the end game.
I just hope that all one day can live in peace side by side and this endless war and blood letting finally- one day- comes to an end.
The evangelical republicans must be seeing (non existent) signs of the(non existing)rapture that is soon to come.
Netanyahu is the worst thing that ever happened to the quest for peace in the region.

Thanks Rashad for your perspective.
It however looks like 'back to business' for both sides. The Israelis intended acquisition of the Gaza Strip as per the long term plan and Hamas' futile resistance / retaliation via old tech rocket launches which is only garnering some international support BUT not the support of the country that could stop this mess in an instant ...... the USA.
It looks to me that this conflict is going to widen in the area and we can see this happening with the rise of ISIS. It is NOT possible or advisable to FORCE different ethnic groups into a single entity as was the case in many areas in the middle east and a lot of other areas in the world.
Is consensus coming around to a NWO? Its looks so as being a reasonable way to 'do business' with each other BUT who or what will control the NWO ...... I have a gut wrenching feeling that its going to be the elites that control the money supply and not people elected politicians.
