Israel has suggested that the long-term aim of its military campaign in Gaza is to sever all links with the territory.

Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said that once Hamas had been defeated, Israel would end its “responsibility for life in the Gaza Strip”.

Before the conflict, Israel supplied Gaza with most of its energy needs and monitored imports into the territory.

    The start of a trend does tend to be earlier than everything that follows… I’m not sure how or why you think that’s a valid point.

      Because if any conflict between people, even ones that have been resolved, can be used to justify current violence; there’s no concievable violence that can ever be unjustified.

        My bad. Imagine civilians killed in the original slave raid weren’t Jewish.

        Take your own advice boss.

          I am. If the IDF had conducted a slave raid into Gaza I’d be calling on the US to partner with the world to enact regime change and bring the perpetrators to justice.

              An investigative report reveals that hundreds of Gazans, including families of suspected Fatah terrorists, and young men not suspected of anything were jailed in detention camps in 1971 for almost a year

              In 1971. Do you have an example from this century? Most Gazans are 18 years old or younger.

                People can still read and absorb oral tradition. Most of this dispute is based on shit from 3000 years ago saying 100 years is too far for it to matter is objectively idiotic.

                  It’s not if the answer to it is to conduct a fresh genocide to remediate the issue. There are peace lines from 1967 that are broad enough where a defacto Arab state and a defacto Jewish state could live side by side. And since the mid 1990s it’s been primarily Palestinians rejecting that idea on favor of advocating for genocide.

                    Clearly it did not work because the conflict is still ongoing and has been since like 12ad.
