    If I lived in Gaza now, I probably would have started to think Hamas were right all along.

    And the only reason I’m not, is because I was lucky in my birth lottery. I am here not there. I am safe, and not there in danger for my life.

    It’s literally just luck.

    Not everybody is so lucky.

    I wish cooperation was a lot more typical in the world, instead of the egoistic and power hungry normal that it is. Doing whatever one can do to get an upper hand, instead of just trying to make the world a better place. In the long run, we all would benefit.

      Hammas killed more Palestinians than Israel did. When they came to power they commited mass murder of opposing political parties within Gaza Strip. Hammas is a fanatic religious group. They took both the residents of Gaza Strip and Israel hostage.

        But would the people present in Gaza currently know that?

        All they would see and feel are airstrikes and bombs being dropped on them.

        The point is, this is going to create far more radicalism than it would solve.
