How does this dispute what Amnesty International is saying?
You seem to want to lecture me rather than ask questions.
Ask so called friend and AI why instead of improving lives of Palestinians using money (large amounts) and all other help Hamas and other members of government wage nonstop war on Israel. What is more important war on Israel or lives of own people?
Israel now has good relations with nearby Arab countries and was on the verge of signing last agreements with Saudis and Saudis together with UAE would also help palestinians... but Iran was not happy about it so they kept funding Hamas and this is a result.
Even though there were attempt to create two states for a long time this never happened. Israel left Gaza after uprising and violence. Hamas took over Gaza completely. Hamas does not recognize a right of Israel to exist.
Right, before Hamas took over, Gaza was more open with cross-border traffic and Palestinians and Israelis intermingling more and shops and recreational areas. Unfortunately since 2006, things have gone backwards. Don't get me wrong. Things were not pretty even before 2006.
Pretty good map here of Gaza today. The airport is destroyed, there's a border wall similar to the one in Korea, and there's a good sized Naval Blockade of the area. This graphic really makes one understand why many consider it to be an "open air prison"
I remember hearing awhile back that Harvard students were against Israel and did not like the jews. does anyone know why? with the recent war this has come up again. I think both sides are wrong these people have been fighting for thousands of years and it's nonsense. obviously, it is religiously related even the Christians hold that land holy.
It seems Harvard students are taking Palestine's side but the university itself is trying to do the opposite. Are there a lot of Muslim students at Harvard?
conflicts like this in the middle east could start world war 3. The United States likes to escalate these situations. our politicians love the idea of armageddon. Some think it gives us an excuse to go to war with Iran.
Sorry but the OP is way off here. He is painting his opinion with a wide brush and while I will not deny that some do. They is a good deal of students that don't, many Jews themselves. Again he is also off on his political beliefs about our politicians.
Both democrats and republicans are warhawks. They risk world war 3 helping Ukraine giving them weapons and tanks and talk of fighter jets.we get involved in other counties problems and we try to police the world. Rand Paul is one of the few politicians that aren't like this. Trump prevented war also .
Harvard is the original anti-Semitic university of America. They've been anti-Jew for over 100 years, and clearly, haven't lost touch with that tradition.
Authored by the Harvard Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee and originally co-signed by 33 other Harvard student organizations Saturday, the statement came under fire from federal lawmakers, University professors, and other students.
Even their own gazette said 33 organizations.
Is this a mistake?
