If Gaza is destroyed, there can be no retaliation.
Half measures don’t do the job.
Israel doesn’t do WAR CRIMES - even though Israel’s enemies have accused it of doing that very thing to the Palestinians. That happens to be nothing but PROPAGANDA by Israel’s enemies!
This is something to get cleared up here ... In Israel’s own laws they are committed to protecting all religious rights and religious sites - Muslims, Christians or Jews equally. Israel is the ONLY COUNTRY in the Middle East so committed to doing so.
Also, as part of the original “Palestine Mandate” from the League of Nations, the religious rights of all religious groups were designated to be protected. When Israel declared independence in 1948” and the war started, Israel urged all the Arabs to NOT FLEE because they were not going to harm them. Israel said they wanted them as citizens in the new country.
Right now, the civil and voting rights of all Arabs in Israel (they are full fledged citizens) are FULLY PROTECTED as much as any Jewish citizen. The Arabs have their own legislators in the Knesset. Also, there is an Arab who is on Israel’s Supreme Court. The Arab population of Israel is 20%.
Israel is ABSOLUTELY COMMITTED to preserving the religious rights and shrines of all citizens in Israel!
THIS IS THE TRUE ISRAEL ... not some “comic book character” that some people “want Israel to be” when they are posting online!
