Are you forgetting how the Americans funded the American Revolution against Britain?
When living under constant suppression, inequality, and a state of war (and a blockade IS a state of war), are you really looking for a peaceful solution?
Are you naive enough to think Hamas is open to a peaceful solution? Their f-ing charter calls for slaughtering Jews OUTSIDE of Israel as well as annihilating those inside.
No peaceful solution is currently possible. There isn't any solution at all right now.
If it weren't for the blockade and the security fence, the horrors of Saturday's massacres would be standard. Hamas shows you exactly who they are and you're blaming Israel for taking necessary measures to reduce terrorism? Israel isn't perfect but my word, understand who Hamas are and how much responsibility they have for conditions in Gaza.
Hamas doesn't get it's support because people woke up and decided to be radical Islamists lol
It takes years of oppression, inequality, and discrimination to radicalize most people.
LOL. No. Jihad against Jews existed long before Hamas become an organisation for a small part of it. Your grasp of both history and current events isn't anywhere near as solid as you seem to think it is. The gap in your logic and knowledge here is a chasm.
