1ºUS double standards over Israel’s war on Gaza ‘very clear’, analyst says.
“The whole world has seen the double standard over the last six months or so; it’s very clear,”
The US, as Israel’s strongest ally, is now trying “to provide a smokescreen by highlighting a number of infringements” made by Israel. An example is the potential sanctions against an Israeli ultra-orthodox military unit and individual settlers.
“That’s not a solution. That’s not enough. And I think the United States and Blinken understand very well that that’s not the answer.” - Sultan Barakat, a professor in conflict studies at the Hamad Bin Khalifa University
2ºFrank Germany It is time to make a decision. We have two entities sharing the same area and they are unable to co-exist. They have been fighting and killing one another for over 70 years. Since it is now obvious that the discord will never end, one faction needs to leave or be removed. Israel has given the world numerous important contributions to medicine, technology, agriculture, etc. The Palestinians have given us falafel and exploding clothing. When one looks at the benefits to humanity that will be retained or gained in the future, it's obvious that the Israelis are of far more value than the Palestinians. The Palestinians need to leave. They are more trouble than they are worth.
