….feel free to kindly fuck off.
A wee bit grumpy again? Is it your brand of coffee?
What I did say stands Señor Grumpasaurus: were you born and raised in Palestine (Gaza) your view of life, death, sacrifice and value would be determined by that orientation.
You are viewing it from a perspective that only reiterates your own position.

From what I can make out, Israel has been busy building an amazing country for the past 70 years, while Gazans have been busy building tunnels and buying weapons and making its leaders unimaginably rich--all while getting more and more jealous and bitter over the country that's known as Israel, and especially bitter and jealous of the arabs who had the good sense to remain and help build the said amazing country of Israel.
Imagine what the Gazans could have done with all those billions in aid instead of spending it on weapons and corrupt leaders.
The entire 'Palestinian' argument is a load of bullshit from beginning to end.
Poor Israelis, they didn't spend one cent on buying weapons or building Iron Doom...

Indeed it would be but for how long before one attempts to think independently of an orientation which has been thoroughly programmed from an early age and considered anathema to abrogate, revise or reconsider.

It all depends on how one's position is derived. In your case it's the one that's borrowed from whatever you're reading at the moment if at all similar to your views. You come across as stubbornly unoriginal, fixed in a position almost as much as IC is stuck in his, thoroughly deaf to the opinion of others especially if they don't conform to yours. Again, something you have in commmon. It's then you're most prone to flippancy as your way of denigrating a response. It's not as if I'm the only one who noticed your pitiable attempts at expressing a superior attitude. Such only seems natural if one's mind actually is superior. So far all I can say is good luck with that.

Good, you agree. I also thought my assertion was reasonable.
Now the question is about Palestinians supporting the military attack tactics of Hamas, or not. And my impression is that there is a culture of support of that violent militancy. As well as pride. And I’ve also got the impression that the so-called Arab street responds favorably to violent, militant actions.
It remains to be seen how Gazans react to the intensity of Israel’s counter attack.
Perhaps you could avoid — or delay? — posting here when that characteristic bitchiness has a grip on you? Do you feel any better, I mean really? when you lose your cool and erupt?
That's hugely bad news for Palestinians. It only means they're falling farther and farther under the spell of the homicidal maniacs who are responsible for their exploitation, brutalization and now destruction. What a sad turn.

Violence brings violence. I told you.
Well, that's certainly turned out to be true: Hamas's violent attack on Israel has issued in a lot of violence.
But how is that a useful insight, since Hamas insists on violence? Are you thinking you're going to get them to stop by waving your hands and saying, "Violence brings violence"?

That was a word of wisdom. Israel cannot vanish Hamas by striving to violence and Hamas cannot vanish Israel as well. So let's both parties suffer!

Not necessarily so "wise." It tells us about the problem, but has no solution.

It is also a solution if both parties understand and submit to it.

Hamas will not. You could try the Israelis, but so long as Hamas will not, they cannot either.
