Israel and Hamas - NOT amateur radio

My friends are of all faiths and none. 

Whilst I have every sympathy with Israel over the senseless events by Hamas on October 7th, I think their revenge on the people of Gaza is over the top.  We can understand that Israel wants to feel safe, but in their hunt for Hamas fighters they are inflicting great pain on the people of Gaza.

One could be forgiven for thinking that Israel wants to get rid of all Arabs in the land they believe is theirs. 

In my view, a radical review of the Middle East is needed based on dialogue and not war. There is a great danger of much hatred being created, which could backfire on Israel. What have the innocent children in the photo done?

The world is losing patience.

  1. The world has no right to make a judgement on Israel. The world did almost nothing to help the Jews during the Holocaust, in 1948, 1956 or 1967. It's unfortunate about the ordinary people of Gaza. They are paying for the sins of Hamas and the poor decision making of their grandparents.

  2. The deep hurt Israel feels is really understandable, but at the same time many across the world feel sorry for the innocents in any conflict. There has to be a better way for solving disputes Roger G3XBM
