Jevara is out . She said she was treated like a criminal inside the police station. They wouldn’t allow her to remove the flak jacket or to close her eyes. She was released on condition she doesn’t cover sheikh jarrah for 15 days

Totaly Agreed. But also when someone comes to your doorstep with intentions to kill innocent people across the border (happened more then once) isn't innocent.

I bet if Biden warns he is pulling out of Iran deal negotiations if Hamas doesn’t stop the air strikes, the war would suddenly come to an end.

I know you have more clout but May I correct you : most people living in Jabalia are refugees recognized by the UN who are now getting older and their descendants. 7 generations maybe but they are still alive an not a remote footnote in history .
DEAR NEW PALESTINE WAR EXPERTS: The Jabalya "Refugee Camp" was indeed a real remote tent camp in the desert teeming with displaced Palestinian refugees ... in 1948! According to UNWRA over 75 years the "camp" turned into a major neighborhood in a densely populated concrete

This massive tunnel system branches out and spans well over four kilometers (2.5 miles). Its entrance is located only 400 meters (1,310 feet) from the Erez Crossing—used by Gazans on a daily basis to enter Israel for work

The fence is not a war zone- People were not sent by Hamas, many actually criticized the group.The fence is fortified and no soldier was ever in danger. There was no need to shoot at humans like it were a video game. A saw it happen.

By stripping ISIS fighters of their nationalities, western governments are dumping the issue on Syria's kurds. So the other option is leaving them in a camp in the desert all together & they can quietly mold their kids to become ISIS 2.0 - where are children rights when needed?

Settlers violence has increased to an average of 3 attacks on Palestinians and their livelihood, to an average of 8 per day since the war began. this is just one example.
I'm afraid. Afraid for myself and even more so for the lives of Palestinians who are having to endure this and worse.
But in times like these I cannot allow myself to look away from what is happening in the West Bank. Don’t close your eyes - lives depend on it.
