Israel must be very careful in its response to the current Palestinian initiative. Israel holds immense and overpowering military assets to deal with this but they must be used in measure and as required. To launch an all-out, no-holds-barred offensive (as the current center-right government is likely to do) could lead to atrocities and accusations of genocide. In this digital age it would only take a few horrifying pictures of innocents caught in the carnage going viral for world opinion to turn against Israel. I have no dog in this fight but this fight could easily spin out of control and pull the entire world into flames if cooler heads do not prevail.

Israel has been systemically imprisoning and murdering Palestinians, there is evidence of organ harvesting, they have broken all of their own religious laws, they are not the good guys here, but, Hamas is equally at fault with their false religion of Islam and their jihads to take over the world for their prophet. It is a gang war, with no one for the good. With the birth of Christianity, Gods chosen people are no longer those with Hebrew lineage. I do not weep for the Bloods or the Crips when they lose a member in their turf wars. I only weep for children, and both sides of this war care nothing for the innocent lives they destroy. Remember Herod? Absolutely pray for the children, on both sides, they did not choose to be born, they have no sides.
True.
